Contagion Cometh

Bloodbowl.  What a game.
I love to play but rarely win.  However, the gonks are fantastic!  (Let's hope the rumours are true for this year's "Mystery Box Game" from GW later on in the year).

Here's the start of a new team: Contagion

This is a new Chaos team that will start in the local Daventry TGV League in a couple of week's.

Just been playing with skin colours at the moment to get the colouring right. These are pretty "flat" at the moment to test.

The Beastmen have had the swords chopped off and I've carved out a thumb which looks better than the normal chopped off look. It doesn't take too long to do but is well worth the extra effort.

TGM Top Tip: Use a pin drill to start off the hole both in the top and bottom of the hand then use a scalpel to carve a thumb shape. (I use an old  fairly blunt scalpel blade for this - watch your fingers!!!)

It's been a long time.

Sorry. 

What can I say?

This last 6-8 months had me so distracted with lots of family and work stuff that I have really not felt like blogging or even painting!  (Hard to believe for those that know me).

Anyway.  I start a new job on 8th July which will leave me with less money but more weekends!  Hopefully a much better place/people to work with, (except the two people that've been great in old work - Thanks!)

Right then, I have a couple of projects to get on with.

Back to thegonkmachine!

A big thank you for your patience.
