Thanks for the comments BAM & Sick - much appreciated!

The dirty star is starting to come to life as I was able to get some workbench time. His skin is done (mostly) along with the shirt and the pants sans stains. I'm still hoping to have him done this week in time for this weekend's tournament, which is hosted by our league. The photos suck somewhat with too much reflection, but it was late and at the workbench. :)

Thanks for the comments. It feels like progress is stuck in a bit of molasses, but it is moving forward. Worked on the red bits tonight and finally did a first pass wash on the leather straps. Away from the workbench the red areas are darker so I want to sleep on that, but I think my intent is to have them a deep dark red. I'm not sure I'll finish him before the weekend like I had hoped, but it also feels like I can see a light at the end of the tunnel for him. I need to continually remind myself that this is a game piece that other will be using, so I don't need to go crazy. But I'm really loving painting him - the blood bowl goblins are just full of a tonne of character.

Thanks for the feedback everyone. This project has been a labour of love - it will be hard to give him up. But I'm also looking forward to getting him off the desk so I can get on to some other projects. Lots of coaches in our league are excited to see him on the table and even possibly have them in their team in the future. I'll be curious to see how well the paint job stands up, especially on the roll of toilet paper. Nothing a bit of touching up and TLC won't fix though.

I really love the new goblin blood bowl minis so its very likely there will be a whole bunch more on my workbench very soon.

Today I did dark, dirty things I'm not sure I'd every like to replicate. The final result is a bit over the top and I'm not sure how happy I'm am, but I'm also going to call this one done, pending some minor touchups, a potential plinth block for him to be magnetized to, and some good and proper photos of him. This goblin certainly has been a fun journey.

Greatest model ever- that is the most realistic line of excrement I’ve ever seen.im probably the only person in the world that’s ever said that.

Late to the party on this guy but it’s a great concept really well executed. Exactly the sort of thing I would expect from a classic GW mini, great to see you bringing that vibe to the new ones.

The micro bog roll and skid mark are genius. Just noticed the steaming turd icon on the base too!
