I painted the player platform white so as not too over do it with green and take away from the player, these boys are jockying for some television camera time!! I also left some of the footballs white on the RB figures that are holding them, it looks pretty cool and is a nice contrast between the skin tone and the jersey.

Just wanted to get some pics out there and also say thanks to Reg and Beenutt for everything.

I see your the Jets this season, and Riley's changed over to the Carolina Panther's.. Have you seen Riley's Carolina Panther's yet?.. I painted Riley's last year's Jet's for him into the Carolina Panther's for this up coming season.. I can't wait to see how the Both of you switching up play's out......

nice looking squad of Jets ready to do some bombing!!!

I like the fact that you have a FULL team.... could not tell if most was for teh offense of the defense but good job!

[Shabby J]

Thanks guys, I'll try to post a few more pics, there are a bunch of Bigmen in there. There are about 30 on defense and 45 on offense.

Why so many guys Shabby?

Great touch going with the white platform.

Most guys don't realize it, but the football has a lot of red in it. John Wright has a perfect mix for painting footballs. It really looks authentic, and you don't lose it when the arms of players are brown.

Great looking team, and good luck in the LAEFL!

the F.O.T.H.

Thanks National! Yes, I do the red paint with the brown for ball color, that is the perfect mix for a true football color.

The roster is big as there are 2-3 deep at every position, got to be prepared for injuries, plus there are some secret weapons in disguise at the skilled positions as well.

Some of those guys will stay in the case and are only there to cover an injury if need be. My second and third string are as strong and or as fast as the starters, so you LAEFL Coaches don't count on getting an edge when one of Shabby's men goes out.

Fun stuff!

Here are some more close up shots of the Jets.

The LAEFL is great, I got boiled bases, boat bases, stock bases, new bases old bases, Frankenstein bases,Tudor figures, Miggle figures, standard and Bigmen, stock FF.net guys, custom FF.net guys, 3.2gm, 3.3gm, 3.5gm, 4.0gm and everything in between.

Proud member of the LAEFL!

yo shabby i see you doing big thangs with those nice looking jets. great looking team. i tell you one thang they better be ready cause were coming to crack that plastic.

[NATIONAL]

You need those subs! lol

Hey Shabby, did you try painting the platforms on the white team? Try painting 1 player. The same green thats used on the players, put that on the platform and see how that looks.

It will give you the opposite effect of the dark team with the white platform.

Good idea National. I may try that, I was kind of pressed for time to get them all done so I could base them up. Still got to base up most of the defense.

I may try that after our first round of games is over next week.
