I'm currently painting my elves and my initial idea was to paint them all, ie all the players that I'd need for league play. I have however since then changed those plans.
My current plan is to paint enough elves for my dark elf tournament team and I'm currently six elves away from that. My goal is to paint the six remaining elves (4 blitzers and 2 witch elves) before the NAFC and play them there. (If I don't, I'll probably play halflings instead)
Why this change?
Well, I've realised that I like tournaments more than league play and I'd rather paint a couple of tournament teams in order to play different teams, before going back and painting the extra models needed for league play. I'll probably have less time for blood bowl in the future, becoming a father soon, so tournaments might be when I get to play, so why not play different teams?
I also have this crazy idea of maybe someday wining a NAF-trophy and I'd therefore like to paint some of the more competitive teams, like wood elves.
I recently one an eBay action for a Meiko wood elf team and I just need to paint 10 elves for my tournament team (together with one of the trees from my halfling team). So, six dark elves and ten wood elves to go for two of the best tournament teams.
I've also sold some of my teams, because I'll probably never get around to painting them and having that pile of unpainted miniatures wasn't really motivating.
This plan might change, but as of now the plan is to paint the following teams
- Dark elves
- Wood elves
- Orcs
- Dwarves
- Skaven
- Pro elves
- Nurgle
- Undead (repaint)
