AHPC9 Donnybrook "Sport" Bonus Round Native Lacrosse

 

Its Analogue Painting Challenge Bonus round again and I've gone all 

Native for the "Sport" Bonus round.

I will admit to being stumped at what to paint up for this round, I even considered 

and placed a few bids on ebay for some various Bloodbowl figures. I pretty glad I lost the bids!

The voting for the Bonus rounds are open to anyone, so if you'd like to vote for my

or any of the other great entries click this link.

I remembered back in the midst of time, 2012 to be precise I painted up some 15mm Indian 

villagers here. Some of these were playing Lacrosse, so a seed was planted.......

I had a few (ok, a lot) of unpainted Indians wallowing in the dead lead pile, so I went to work

with a scalpel, file and drill, chopping off warclubs and such and came up with these 4 chaps.

The goal was quite a simple build, its made out of the three straightest twigs

I had in my Twig box, painted, inked and drybrushed and stuck on a Warbases base

and will be used as decoration 

in any games we play involving an Indian village.

He's my fav, not a lot of conversion work on him I'm afraid, he came straight of the 

packet of Redoubt Torch carriers.

As did the chap on the right.

All 4 figures are from Redoubt Enterprises.

Just for interest, here's how I made the Lacosse Sticks.

I cut and bent some soldering wire to shape.

Then folded a piece of plasterboard scrim in half, I fed the wire into the fold and 

and cut to shape. I then had to cut a thin fine line and glue it to the bottom of the net.

Easy!

Well it wasn't that easy, I super-glued my fingers together 3 times!!

Oh the things we do for the hobby!
