It's March, 2008, and the the legacy team for 2008 is officially Necromantic.
Since we had low voter turnout for 2007, we are extending the team into 2008. Coaches who submitted a miniature in 2007 will be entered twice into the drawing for the team if they submit a miniature for the 2008 Legacy Team.
So it's time to start choosing players and numbers to paint! I'll edit this post with the up to date information on who and what.
Please, do not claim a miniature unless you are willing to have it in the mail to me by December 31, 2008.
Note: Due to popular demand, we're going to use Red, White, and Black as team colors. The Red should be a primary Red - Blood Red if you use GW paints.
Let's do Red numbers on Black backgrounds on the figures, but I'm not going to determine a flesh color unless you all force me to make a decision.  I liked the flag idea from last year too, so if you can reproduce a little flag from your country on the base, that would be cool. Let's do our NAF nickname and number, and the year on the base as well.
I've found a fairly nifty basing material, but it costs ten bucks a jar, and I don't feel right about forcing everyone to buy it. So, if you want to try it out, it's called Resin Sand Texture Gel, from Liquitex. I bought my jar at Michael's craft store, but it should be available in any art supply shop.
Otherwise, use your favorite basing material.
I'd like to have the bases look like muddy earth, so we will be painting the ground in a base color of Scorched Brown with a highlight of Graveyard Earth, and bright green static grass over a little over half of the base.
We will be using 2nd ed base colors, and the text on the bases should be Red on Black. The base colors are as follows:
gray - linemen -Zombies and Skellys - Codex Gray
red - blitzers - Wight - Scab Red
green - blockers - mummy/golem - Snot Green
yellow - catchers - Ghouls/werewolves - Golden Yellow
Me? I'll claim a Zombie Norseman. #13. Like last year....

I'll snatch up a zombie as well - do we have to have numbers from 1-16?
I like the idea of a uniform base color for each type of mini - one color for zombies, etc... but I was unaware that there were base colors decided for the undead in 2nd Ed!  |

That'd be the lineman color, whatever that is. I never played 2nd, so I didn't know about those until a year or so ago...
Pick any number you like. Just let me know so I we don't get duplicates. |

Ah, so gray would be for linemen, white for throwers, red for blitzers, green for blockers, yellow for catchers.
I'll take #17 as my Zombie! (I can provide it myself...) |

| Excellent! I'd like to do a mummy. I think I'll have a go at converting a fig myself, so I won't need one of the two on offer. (Although I'll probably end up regretting it -- greenstuffing all those bandages will definitely be a pain in the *ss!) I'll take number 55. |

Zombie for me please! #83.
If we look like we're coming up short on one of the other positions, I'm happy to change if I haven't started the mdel by then. |

personally I think that uniform team colors are a good idea, not so much on skin tones, those should be somewhat open.
red/white/black works well for me
what exactly are we doing for base colors?
DarkDancer17 wrote: Ah, so gray would be for linemen, white for throwers, red for blitzers, green for blockers, yellow for catchers.
gray - linemen -Zombies and Skellys
white - throwers - none
red - blitzers - Wight
green - blockers - mummy/golem if we get enough
yellow - catchers - Ghuols/werewolves??
is this right? |

Do you all feel like that about team color?
Yeah, let's go with the 2nd edition base ring colors. Base text should be Red on Black, which should make it stand out. |

Is it too late for me to get in on this? With such ample time I can avoid being as late as I was with the '06 team. I've got a Rackham fig that I'd love to use as a mummy (http://www.rackham-store.com/boutique_us/images_produits/MVCH01copie.jpg).
I could use a break from painting wood elves anyway. |

Welcome aboard, Misanthrope09. Do you have a number you want to use for the Mummy? |
