Barcelona Away 1984

A classic kit for a class team from the 80's.  Here's how my version has turned out on the little plastic men

Borussia Dortmund 2012 / 13 home kit

You may have noticed the last couple of teams I've painted up have been on modern looking figures and bases; I managed to get a bulk load of bases on the cheap (as I always seem to!).  The only problem I have is the job lot of bases were very limited in colours, so finding strips that will go with the bases that I want to paint is proving a bit of a tricky task!  Thankfully we're in that time of year where all the new kits are being released, so there's plenty of new ones to choose from.

The latest team I've decivded to paint is the new home kit for Borussia Dortmund.  I had considered painting last seasons bundesliga championship kit, but all the dots on the shirt looked just a bit too tricky to do on a subbuteo player, so I've decided on this seasons kit instead.

here's how it turned out

I've only just realised the 3 recent teams I've painted up are all in this year's Champions League!

Arsenal 2012/13 Home Kit

A friend who I regularly play subbuteo with is a massive Arsenal fan.  With me being a Spurs fan, some of the games we have can get quite heated!

Here's Arsenal's home kit for the 2012/13 season.

I have a very strong urge to "accidently" break these!

The figures are 2K4, the bases are Raptors

Superhero XI

I haven't done one of these for a while.  Got a bit bored during the week, so thought I would paint this up.

The team is painted on Santiago HW's

Chelsea Away 2012/13

I love this time of year.  Not because of the English weather, but because the new season's kits get released.  It's always interesting to see the new designs.

I've recently purchased a couple of sets of semi-pro bases which I'll be painting my next few teams on.

First up I've decided to paint the new Chelsea away kit.  This is the 2nd year on the trot I've painted Chelsea's away.  I really don't know why I keep picking Chelsea away kits as I'm a big Spurs fan and really don't like Chelsea!

Apparently this is the first kit to have a multicolured fading adidas stripe.  I've tried to interpret this as best as I can on the little plastic men.

Sheffield United 75/76

The latest request for a team was for a Sheffield United kit from the 70's.


Whilst the kit is a fairly simple design, painting the red and black stripes so close together was very tricky.  I got a shaky hand on a couple of occasions whilst painting this one!

Worcester City 2011/12

I've received a request to paint Worcester City's current home kit.  Here's how its turned out
