Orc Stadium: Games Day 11

Doing some research for a Blood Bowl stadium I intend to build this year, I came across this wonderfully detailed showpiece by GW (though the spectators are conspicuously absent).  Typically immobile, it would nonetheless look pretty good in the Man Cave!

      Probably something more along the lines of grandstands, which will be easier to store (I move a lot) and need less space to setup.

    Can't wait to see who shows up in the stands!

    Do Orks eat peanuts or hot dogs?

    That is a fantastic looking Stadium, right out of the Blood Bowl PC game (or vice versa?)

    Looks nice, always thought about making a custom pitch myself.

    Thats a pretty sweet looking set up. I have no doubt you will come up with some equally as good

    They did a series of post on the construction:

    Note that it has the wrong number of squares in the end zones and that they made it with 1 inch squares which are smaller than the ones on the normal board.

      Thanks for that mate, I hadn't seen that before.
      Cant fathom why they would make it with smaller squares though, it would really limit figure placement in tight bunches
