The music that played during Hatty's sections was fantastically chosen. I feel that the Super Ghouls n' Ghosts music was a very nice touch, especially.
Cool to see some Blood Bowl kits on the channel at long last, they have such a great silly range of models. As always very helpful to see how you guys work out the colour theory, these came out looking great!
Blood Bowl is my favourite incarnation of the Olde Worlde; just the right level of silliness. Great looking teams; especially the luminous flesh on the Frankenstein Creatures.
You can always try to mix some gloss acrylic medium with water and some flow aid to make some home made nuln oil gloss, for the ratios I would keep to Lester Bursleys mixture for his own wash medium. Which is 10:1 distilled water to flow aid (the liquitex one) and then 50/50 of that mixture with medium. Works like a charm. Add any ink colour you want and washes galore!
Love this, not only do I love seeing more Blood Bowl in my mini painting youtubes, a lot of the techniques in this are exactly how I paint my teams. I HATE seeing a pile of brown fighting a pile of brown on the pitch, Blood Bowl is such a cartoony game, it deserves COLOUR. I love having high contrast minis on the field.
It is the best of the silly gw aesthetic. However, I'm willing to die on the hill that middle earth strategy battle game is the only perfect game system games workshop has ever produced.
Hatti acting all surprised that Guy cheated on the color scheme and highlights. Do you not remember the watergun terrain build off where he cheated his rear off?
I couldn't say which team's paint job I liked better. They're both fantastic. But I use that same "Halloween" paint scheme whenever I paint Orcs. (I've always painted Orcs as part of Orktober, which puts me in a Halloween mood).
Guys dino boiz lookk so wonderful. would really love to see Guy tackling more HappyBright schemes like that. Would also love to see more of these painting competions in future
The undeads remind me of typical monster toys from the 90s and for nostalgia reasons I think I like them a bit more. But overall I enjoyed the popping colours on both teams :)
I love vibrant colours! I've grown to love contrast paints. The newer ones are really highly pigmented, & remind me of inks. I like using them as washes & glazes too. Also, it's cool to see these more wacky limited pallet videos. I think you can get more creative that way & have some fun.
I love this video, it's made me want to go and buy come lizardmen for my blood bowl, I found it amazing how you both got great results from very little and simple designs. My skaven blood bowl team is a mess and I wish I'd have seen this first before painting them, although I only have 1 contrast paint l, time to experiment!
I've been following your videos about minis for a long time. Today I stumbled in a tutorial for a keyboard and I went "Wait! I know this guy!" and then "... well actually I don't, but it feels like meeting a friend" Awesome video as usual, by the way
BVB is a hell of a club to manage! I still remember the good ol' days with Jan Koller, Sforza, Rosicky, Jorg Henrich... oh man what a grea team. Well done Guy!
Woah! I just got my 6 zombie lineman finished and based yesterday, then see your video this morning, weird! For the bases I just squirted PVA into the bottom of the slot, when it dried it shrunk to a little lower than flush but you can not tell at all after basing with sand and fake grass. Your models look great!
I love the colours chosen for the spookier ones, but Lizardmen are just way more my thing. Can't pick a favourite, because both have good things, but if I had to choose between the two it's to Hatty, for choosing a delicious orange and purple ^_^
Another option for filling in base slots is plasticine coated with superglue, as recommended by a random White Dwarf in the early '90s. 😁Dead cheep and no mixing required, plus if you get a pack of green plasticine you can pretend it's green stuff... And the style of underpainting Guy used is offically known as "zingbo style" and there are Discord logs to prove it! 🤣
Re. The slotta problem, I've found the best method to be cutting paper into strips a little wider that the slot. Glue the model in place and put the paper strip over the slot, sliding the edge under and sculpted rocks or toes of the model. Then douse it with super glue. It turns the paper rock hard and means you're not relying on PVA glue to hold the whole base/model connection. Lastly just trim the excess paper with a craft knife using the beveled edge as a guide. (The ca glue soaked paper will act almost like plastic) This gives you a minimally invasive method of covering slots and you leave most of the base untouched for plastic to plastic adhesion later on. Happy days!
The music for Hattie's miniatures on the 'How did we do?' section sounds like the theme song from Gargoyle's Quest for Gameboy, when Firebrand enters the instance with the fires. Also, Hattie, next time you should think of painting your team to look like the dead football players from the waiting room in Beetlejuice *whistles merrily*
Alternative to nuln gloss Take a bottle of army painter dark tone, add airbrush thinner and gloss medium/varnish. Ratio is 4:1:1 strong tone, thinner, gloss medium/varnish. It's the closest I've gotten
Another method for the slits on the bases that I’ve used sense I started painting is tape, painters tape has a nice texture for paint and texture pastes to bond to
I only recently found out Gloss Nuln had been discontinued after the contents of my 1 bottle took a journey across my cutting board, used it on my mkIV White Scars as a nice greasy effect over the big panels, the gloss gives it that nice "This armour used to be clean" vibe. I cried for 43 hours after I spilled the bottle & found out I couldn't replace it. Currently trying AMMO MIG-1011 Enamel Black Wash and Vallejo streaking grime to see how they work (both enamels)
These both look great, I'd go with the spooky bois all the way! 🤘🖤 Bonus likes for the Ghouls and Ghosts music when revealing the full spooky bois paint job 🤘🖤
I like your genuine, creative approaches. Switching to complementary colours as the current challenge is one of those. But it's really a "you-problem": it seems, YOU (Guy) didn't stick to the set up rules (no highlights).
Thank you for sharing; After applying the "Gloss Nuln Oil" did you clean any off? Matt Varnish before applying SpeedPaint? The recess shading looks Great! Just wondering about these two questions. Your time and reply is most welcomed.
Hey Guy, did a bit of internet sleuthing and came across a video called "Vallejo, Game wash 200ml Vs Games Workshop Nuln Oil 24ml" by Michael Mordor that compares Vallejo wash and Nuln oil. It was made 3 years ago so its likely comparing the oil Nuln Oil recipe rather than the new one. Hope this helps
I just lay the base upsidedown on some parchment paper, dribble a little thick super glue in the gap, add activator and - no gap. Love the Hulk vibes on those linebackers!
This was a great challenge definitely think it's worth revisiting in the future Also I'd love to see a video of these two teams playing against each other
I was recently up in London and went to the store on Tottenham Court Road. I was seriously tempted by Blood Bowl but a question. What glue did you use to mount miniatures on to sticks. Surely superglue would be too strong to remove them without leaving a leg behind. Although being Blood Bowl could just say it was a tackle injury.
What kind of glue did you used to attach them to the popsicle sticks while painting the miniatures? I’ve been using blue tack, but I’m open to other options. I’ve thought about trying hot glue. I should add, I’m using resin 3D printed models, not plastic.
Super glue! A small amount to the feet will create a comfortable bond for painting, but will be brittle enough that you can easily snap it off of wood with no real problems.
"Cant forget the balls"
"Also, blue balls!!"
Indeed, balls
I don't know how sports commentators do their jobs without cracking up all the time
Cricket has some fantastic terms@@MidwinterMinis
The music that played during Hatty's sections was fantastically chosen. I feel that the Super Ghouls n' Ghosts music was a very nice touch, especially.
Much thanks to Guy and Hatty for their support. The auctions both go live Feb 1st. Now to get them to play BB as well!
Best auction purchase ever. 😊😊😊
14:55 - Incredible ... the first Chameleon Saurus! Congratulations on finding a new spawning pool, in a cardboard box of all places.
Bright and Vibrant! I'd be into seeing more (friendly) painting competitions between both of y'all
Me too! That's a good ideer
Cool to see some Blood Bowl kits on the channel at long last, they have such a great silly range of models. As always very helpful to see how you guys work out the colour theory, these came out looking great!
Blood Bowl is my favourite incarnation of the Olde Worlde; just the right level of silliness.
Great looking teams; especially the luminous flesh on the Frankenstein Creatures.
The way the editing did Guy dirty with that Churchill dog clip got me 😂
Small tip, put the turn markers on a 25mm base so you arent constantly knocking them over when playing blood bowl.
You can always try to mix some gloss acrylic medium with water and some flow aid to make some home made nuln oil gloss, for the ratios I would keep to Lester Bursleys mixture for his own wash medium. Which is 10:1 distilled water to flow aid (the liquitex one) and then 50/50 of that mixture with medium. Works like a charm. Add any ink colour you want and washes galore!

Nuln oil gloss was the best wash GW ever created. I bought 2 bottles when I heard they were discontinuing it. I should have bought 10 :D
We live in regret. Good to hear from you, old pal!
I'm painting on Watch It Paint It now - I still watch your stuff on the regular 😄Blackstone Fortress feels like a lifetime ago haha @@MidwinterMinis
Been looking into blood bowl recently and this is great motivation to jump in and try a fun color scheme!
its honestly so much fun. I have 3 teams already (Norsca, Dwarves, Necromantics)
Finally Guy covers Blood Bowl, the best game GW ever made or makes bar none.
I read that as "Family Guy covers Blood Bowl".
I would pay to see that.
It is the best of the silly gw aesthetic.
However, I'm willing to die on the hill that middle earth strategy battle game is the only perfect game system games workshop has ever produced.
Hatti acting all surprised that Guy cheated on the color scheme and highlights.

Absolute brilliance! This video is a beacon of creativity in a sea of content.💞
Well played
My local hobby store just started its Blood Bowl League, so the timing of this is delightfully serendipitous.
can't wait for a game! maybe make a pitch themed after one of the teams?
Two balls jokes in a single video. Perfection
The undeads remind me of typical monster toys from the 90s and for nostalgia reasons I think I like them a bit more. But overall I enjoyed the popping colours on both teams :)
I love both squads... but spookey undead, too cute
Great video. Would love to see more kits being painted. Keep up the good work.

Guy painting bright turquois made me nostalgic for the video that brought me here in the first place - the collab with Dana Howl!
Both teams come out looking great!
I’ve been on the fence about blood bowl recently and this is pushing me towards it 😂
Do the thing
Guy and Hatty learn blood bowl batrep when 👀
Ant has been trying to get us to play for years!
Love both teams fun and simple. I've never tried slapchop so I will have a go.
I am on team spookeh.
I've been following your videos about minis for a long time. Today I stumbled in a tutorial for a keyboard and I went "Wait! I know this guy!" and then "... well actually I don't, but it feels like meeting a friend"
Awesome video as usual, by the way
I'd have said Post It Note Yellow, but you do you, Guy
"Oooh yes!" *nods*
BVB is a hell of a club to manage! I still remember the good ol' days with Jan Koller, Sforza, Rosicky, Jorg Henrich... oh man what a grea team. Well done Guy!
liked both
Well done both of you! Would be happy to win either team in the auctions.
Woah! I just got my 6 zombie lineman finished and based yesterday, then see your video this morning, weird! For the bases I just squirted PVA into the bottom of the slot, when it dried it shrunk to a little lower than flush but you can not tell at all after basing with sand and fake grass. Your models look great!
I always used to use sticky tape for covering the slots on bases when needed. Glue and basing always held it down
Definitely the spooky boys is my favorite! Sorry guy. I like the lizards too.
15:00.
That awkward embarrassment in the tone is hilarious!!!! 😂😂😂
I love the colours chosen for the spookier ones, but Lizardmen are just way more my thing. Can't pick a favourite, because both have good things, but if I had to choose between the two it's to Hatty, for choosing a delicious orange and purple ^_^
Looking forward to GW releasing the colour "Streaky Pissy Yellow!"
Another option for filling in base slots is plasticine coated with superglue, as recommended by a random White Dwarf in the early '90s. 😁Dead cheep and no mixing required, plus if you get a pack of green plasticine you can pretend it's green stuff...

It would be cool if you made a video on how to play blood bowl!!
Great to see some Blood Bowl love on this channel!
01:13 I kind of expected her to say "milliput squeezy"
Damn Time to buy a blood bowl team now (thanks guy for yet another impulse purchase)
Thin plasticard, remove slotta from model feet, plastic glue - done.
Strong and durable slotta coverage
Re. The slotta problem, I've found the best method to be cutting paper into strips a little wider that the slot.

Happy days!
Guy’s have serious Dana Howell vibes
I'll very much take that as a compliment!
@@MidwinterMinis Dana would have added pale sand to the yellow not white though 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thanks you two! Now we just have to get you both playing the game!
That would make Ant's dreams come true
So happy to see you guys doing some Blood Bowl minis! How about a Blood Bowl battle report.....?
For my Nuln-oily wash, quite simply, I follow the recipe you gave us in a video five years ago.
Hey everyone, the auctions will now go live today Jan 31st at 8:30 am EST!!!
And they are now both live! Happy bidding, and thank you for helping the CJBM support this important fight!
really impressed with that nmm gold! fun technique for getting it done quick

Like both, but the spooky boys appeal to me more. Might steal it for my tyranids

The Black wash from TTcombat is pretty glossy, and you got that if i dont remember wrong from a older video
Have to give the edge to the spooky boys. The colors but also a bigger fan of that teams models.
7:30 Would something like a black Contrast/ink and acrylic floor polish do the job, perhaps?
Two sets of really nice looking minis. Love that you're covering a bit of Blood Bowl and leaning into the bright and colourful options it presents.
These both look great, I'd go with the spooky bois all the way! 🤘🖤
Bonus likes for the Ghouls and Ghosts music when revealing the full spooky bois paint job 🤘🖤
masking tape over the slotta works well
I fill my base gaps with a mixture of blutac and superglue - sublutac! Unconventional but it does the job!
Sublutac! Genius
Does Lloyd know you're using his invention? ;) 'ello Ben!
@@SomeDudeOnTH-cam I think he'll find I came up with it first! Much like the love of SAGA #fakenews haha
I like your genuine, creative approaches. Switching to complementary colours as the current challenge is one of those. But it's really a "you-problem": it seems, YOU (Guy) didn't stick to the set up rules (no highlights).
I heard that sneaky remix of the "Ghosts and Goblins" video game music. I like the stand-up pieces to camera, nice format!
Loved the ghouls n ghosts remix music
Glad you paid so much attention to your balls. 10/10
Vallejo game wash dipping formula is very simular to nuln oil. It's a bit darker but really gloss
Hatty's face @13:54 hahaha I'm with you Guy cheated!!! REDO!!!! Nice to see some Blood bowl minis!
Thank you for sharing; After applying the "Gloss Nuln Oil" did you clean any off? Matt Varnish before applying SpeedPaint? The recess shading looks Great! Just wondering about these two questions. Your time and reply is most welcomed.
Have wondered what the reason for GW to still use slotted bases for plastic mini's? Have only seen it with Blood-Bowl miniatures though.
Any idea?
This was really fun. A great example of how simple techniques can look amazing. That nmm came out great
The bright green, purple, tan is my favorite color scheme to use for orcs.
Blue balls and piss awesome paint jobs on both teams... Cheers.
I prefer to use the Chapslop method for painting miniatures.
How do you handle seeing smaller small minis and hands trembling?
Hey Guy, did a bit of internet sleuthing and came across a video called "Vallejo, Game wash 200ml Vs Games Workshop Nuln Oil 24ml" by Michael Mordor that compares Vallejo wash and Nuln oil. It was made 3 years ago so its likely comparing the oil Nuln Oil recipe rather than the new one. Hope this helps
Why is Lamia medium used instead of Contrast medium?
It just dries a bit more matte, which I prefer 🙂
I like to use tissue paper and super glue to cover gaps on my bases when I have to.
I just lay the base upsidedown on some parchment paper, dribble a little thick super glue in the gap, add activator and - no gap. Love the Hulk vibes on those linebackers!
Whoooop Blood Bowl!
C'mon Guy... Not even painting the skinks eyes?
This was a great challenge definitely think it's worth revisiting in the future
Also I'd love to see a video of these two teams playing against each other
Wasn't expecting the random Borussia Dortmund shoutout, I'm always surprised what random german stuff reaches people around the globe.
Just what I need , I've got some moonstone minis to paint
ca. 6:58 : Hey. You have the ultimate Uplighting-Colour with Iced Yellow in your Collection of Paints. XD
Stinky dinosaurs look like a bright University of Michigan. I like.
Really great !
But...next weak, it's not about Heroquest ? 🥺
Maybe nuln oil ,flow improver and gloss medium to make gloss nuln oil

Surely superglue would be too strong to remove them without leaving a leg behind. Although being Blood Bowl could just say it was a tackle injury.
Superglue works just fine as long as you don’t overdo it!
Loved this video!
Heja, BVB ! Love both schemes, but Borussia Raptors kills it ! Keeeep it up !
Going into this video, I didn't expect to encounter Borussia Dortmund. 🤩😇
