Get In The Game!
 

I'm super excited to be back into miniature football, and I've started on the first team I've painted in more than a decade. The decals were particularly fun to make, including shoe decals, and I hope my decal sheets show up later today!

After a few teams, I plan on making my own board; the Miggle 6071 just isn't cutting it. And, once I have a nice board, I'll start a local league!

Ah... painting football figures with Christmas music in the background sure brings back memories.

I'm just getting started, but here's the progress so far:

Fond Memories Indeed.....

Wow
 

Interesting that you are using the same paint tray that I use when painting my figures.

awesome

but what are the decals below the leg stripes?

Thanks, guys -- I'm really excited about everything, including this community; everyone here seems really cool. Hopefully I'll get to meet everyone at a convention.

HOOP, if that's your setup, man I'm envious!

They're my shoe decals. I'm not sure if I like them or not -- I'll know after I apply them. They'll center and wrap around from the heel of the player.

I'll try them on my test player first, and if necessary I'll make adjustments to the art.

Thanks for all the encouragement, coaches -- I'm really having a good time.

I got my blank decal sheets yesterday, so I just had to give them a try. I'm pretty happy with the results, and especially since it's been so many years since I've done anything like this.

Hopefully my face masks will show up today or tomorrow.

Now, on to the rest of the team, and hopefully I'll have them ready for the big game on Christmas Day. :)

nice vibrant colors, especially on the numbers and orange stripes. good job

YES SIR, exactly what he said. Nice!!
