Blood Bowl Daemonettes: The Fifty Shades of Purple (IX) - All Done and Ready to Rumble!

Hello all,

Finally, the Fifty Shades of Purple-team is done - ready to rule the Blood Bowl world for generations to come!

As mentioned here, the team is a "count as" Dark Elves, using the old classic and brilliant Daemonettes of Slaanesh from Games Wokshop. It contains one of each of the Daemonettes (sans the elusive Gristlewhip..) with a doublette of two, and a Fiend of Slaanesh to be used as a "big guy".

Each is its own shade of purple, hence the name, ranging from almost black to almost white - been great fun to paint, and also looks both diverse and and as a cohesive team.

The Daemonettes turned out to pretty perfect for Blood Bowl, only a single one totes a sword while the rest are unarmed (except for their claws of course...) and are thus the perfect ball players.

The bases were easy  and if curious there is a guide here showing how to do them.

Now I just need to get my son back into playing Blood Bowl, and a few friends to rekindle their interest and then the Daemonettes are ready for their first tournament :-).

Hope you have enjoyed the pictures - the team was fun to collect and paint and I truly hope they will also be fun to play.


All the best,
Kasper

    1. Thanks Paul - sure hope they won't fail miserably the first time out. But then there is the well-documented curse of painted teams to deal with...
