Waterbowl XV Legacy Team 2020 - High Elves "Phoenix Knights"

[the beanbag]

Fellow BBers, welcome welcome welcome.

The ballot boxes have gone back into storage for another year as all votes have been counted and bribes pocketed. It was a close run thing but in the last few hours one vote made all the difference and this year the winner is -

High Elves!

The hoity-toity, shiny armoured dodgers have finally got their moment. This should be one good looking team!

Background
The idea of the Legacy Team is to collectively create a unique team of miniatures in time for the Waterbowl tournament in February.
It will be a prize awarded on the first morning of the tournament and is traditionally used by the winner for the weekend (although this isn't mandatory). We may vociferously boo the winner if they don't, however.

How to be in it, to win it
To be eligible to win the team you must contribute a mini to the team and also play in the tournament in Feb 2020.

Colour scheme
Primary colour - Yellow
Secondary colour - Purple

Team Name
Phoenix Knights

[CStunt]

Put me down for a blitzer

[Chilli]

I’ll have the other blitzer please

[Dafo5]

I'll do a catcher

[Barney the Lurker]

I'll take a Thrower, thanks Mr Bag.

[mawph]

I'll take a lineman please.

[Ringbeard]

Lineman please

[mawph]

I now have a 3rd ed lineman in my possession. Time to start coating in paint

[the beanbag]

Good stuff, John!

Look forward to seeing the daubing!

[choidivision]

I’ll take a lineman

[Zoglug]

I take a lineman if there is one spare? Payment is imminent from me for the Waterbowl!

[CharlieBanks]

I’ve got a spare Prince Moron! I’ll take that one for you

[Jip]

I’ll take a Lineman. Not sure I’ll be there in February, but happy to help out with a mini.

I’ll probably be using one of the BB2016 Elven Union minis with a bit of kitbashing, hope that works, scale-wise.

[the beanbag]

@Zoglug - nice one, welcome back my friend!
@Choidivision - welcome aboard
@Jip - that's mighty magnanimous of you my friend, thank you!
@Charliebanks - A Prince Moron, superb

[mawph]

Trying to get a little inspiration for this (the model has been undercoated and on my desk for a little while already...). Are there any colour schemes already in place, or a co-ordinated plan for colours in various spots on models? I've a 3rd ed lineman and just trying to work out where to place the primary and secondary colours on the model.
