Post subject: Blood Bowl Pitch

I wasn't sure if this would be painting or converting or something completly different, so I stuck it here. This is a link to my website; I've got some pictures of the Blood Bowl pitch I made to accomodate the large number of players in our league without boxed sets.

Let me know what you think.

Yes, great job, just too bad I could never win against you playing on that darn thing....I like the dugouts the best....or should I say my players liked the KO'd box so much they decided to stay in there for the rest of the game Wink

nice - what did you make it out of?

I've got a wooden box that I'm going to glue a polystyrene block into then make the pitch out of that. Afterwards I'm going to construct the stands around it with loads of supporters Smile

this is a nice board. why you don't add some symbol in the line of scrimagge?

I made 4 stadiums: one with wood, two with foam, and another with a piece of roof (dungeonbowl) If somebody give some directions about how take good pictures, I'll post them for you. Tomorrow, I'll begin to built my 5 stadium (actually are boards, but...)

I didn't do a symbol on the line of scrimmage because this was an experimental piece and I had to finish it in two days. My next pitch is going to be astrogranite made with Hirst Arts fieldstone blocks. If I ever get around to it.

That sounds like it would look really cool, but aren't you afraid that a hard surface like that would tend to chip the paint on your minis?

The surface will be no harder than the cardboard board usually played on. The blocks are cast in plaster, painted and then sealed with PVA. And I always seal my minis to keep the paint from rubbing off, so chipping will not be an issue.
