The Averland Adventurers

 These little folk are my new Halfling Blood Bowl team. They're great sculpts with a lot of charm. I did a few conversions on some of the players to make them more unique, and to allow me to use Star Players. Their kit is inspired by FC Barca's Catalan shirt. 

Here's a group photo of the whole squad! 




These two are Hefties, particularly tough Halflings. I like their design, both of them look like they're seasoned fighters (even if they're not exactly great!). I sculpted a scarf for the one on the right and gave him an extra shoulder spike so that he can be used as Puggy Baconbreath. 




These two Hopefuls are posed sprinting up the field. As with all the figures on the team, I really enjoyed painting their faces.



I made stilts for this player. He can be used as a normal Hopeful or as the Star Player Nuddley Verruca. 



This fella looks confident, as if he could be the team captain. 



Two Catchers:




I did a head swap on this Hopeful to make him suitable for Captain Colander. I sculpted a cape for him from Milliput too. Painting chequered clothing is always a challenge, but fun. 





This is another converted Hopeful. I combined two heads from the kit and sculpted some curly hair. He can be used as a standard Hopeful or Big Jobo. 


A fairly normal Hopeful :




Player number 6 is one of my favourites. 



No Halfling team is complete without some Treemen, and I'd like to add some soon. I'm not sure which miniatures I'll use for them, but I might try the Treemen from the Warlords of Erehwon range. The box includes 3 different sculpts, so it's perfect for a Halfling team.
