Converting - Chick Team

Ok, getting ready to start a conversion project to make an all female team, but having some issues.

I was originally going to make a Female Skaven Team (and may still do this in the future), but I'd like to try my hands at a human team. While I do like the Gridiron girls, they appear a little small for BB, especially when I put them next to my Chaos or Khemri team, so I started looking for alternate models.

So far, the ones with the best potential are the Fianna's (Rackham, I think) and Escher gangers (GW Necromunda). I tend to think the Eschers would look great, as they have a football gear look to all those pads and straps, it is just going to be a nightmare to modify them Sad

Does anyone have suggestions for other models out there, something a bit easier to cut up and GS some gear onto???

Many thanks!!!

How about the Sisters of Sigma from the Mordheim range? Or if you are prepared to do a hell of a lot of converting and green-stuffing, you could even use Sisters of Battle from 40k

Not a bad suggestion, I'm going to have to see if anyone around here has the models so I can check them out - from what I can see online, they look like they may be relatively easy to convert. Thanks!

Any other gems out there?

human models (gridirons, bunnies, nuns) are quite small, but elves are a little bit taller, don't look bad against the GW models and are sooooooo gorgeous! btw, they have the best receivers ever seen on a BB pitch!

I'm still waiting for a sexy darkelf team, BDSM bloodbowl, you know...

oh, and don't forget the orcs!!!

I have a set I bought from Phil that probably will never get painted (I have sooooo many teams to do), they're still in the package (bag), if you want to buy them, PM me with an offer, I might let them go for the right price.

if you're talking about the converted witch elves, I didn't miss them.
I fear I have to say that they didn't made me enthusiast, mostly because I don't like that much the minis you (you?) started from. Nice conversion job, anyway.

Exactly, but Phil has closed shop and sold off all his remaining minis so I'm still entertaining offers on a full 16 minis team (unpainted, still in the bag).
