Man that looks good. The one thing I'd say is that most of these pictures you've drawn (if not all) are set on the pitch. Does the background and dark colours you've used there take away from that idea?

While there is a need for colour variations of the pictures (I like both styles equally) I still personally prefer the original pencil drawings.

Yes some interesting points for me to consider.
On a personal level I was satisfied with the drawings as stand alone art works, the coloured ones are not meant to be a replacement but rather another version, (as well as a chance for me to try and improve my photoshop skills). They give me an opportunity to correct bits of the original I'm dissatisfied with as well as giving them a different sort of presence which increases the options for people wanting to use them
Jiiiiim you are correct that the relative darkness of the colour does contradict the setting of them being 'in play' (unless there's been a major floodlight failure or they're playing Dungeonbowl), I guess I chose the darker look to give them a visual punch, that's not to say it can't be corrected by using a different colour scheme.

As for uploading, I don't know how to do it, but if someone wants to they are welcome to do so, all relevant pics are stored on my blog.

Star Portraits on Photobucket
for any who would like to see the images...
I had originally done eacy group of stars in the team colors they could play for (eg. Human Stars / Orc Stars) but found they didn't stand out enough as stars so I made a 'Star uniform' with Black Armor and gold trim with personalized details... hope you like it

Hi Everyone

Sorry to be away for so long but duty calls.
Firstly, just seen Ryan's colour schemes for the star players, they really are excellent, thanks so much for doing such a great job with them!
Secondly I've managed to lock myself away for long enough to complete all the Stunty Leeg positionals. They are posted on my blog.

I include links here...
to begin with the one's I've posted already...

Eshin Adepts- like Splinter but with cleats.
http://fantasyfootballart.blogspot.com/2011/07/stunty-leeg-eshin-adepts.html

Fairies- I'm afraid there were a couple of Gridiron mascot related puns I just couldn't resist (especially the Leprechaun when considering my user name!!!)
http://fantasyfootballart.blogspot.com/2011/07/stunty-leeg-fairies.html

Gnomes- if you thought Chaos Dwarfs had cornered the market in silly hats, think again!
http://fantasyfootballart.blogspot.com/2011/07/stunty-leeg-gnomes.html

Pygmies- pot bellies FTW
http://fantasyfootballart.blogspot.com/2011/07/stunty-leeg-pygmies.html

Skryre Slaves- techno grunge.
http://fantasyfootballart.blogspot.com/2011/07/stunty-leeg-skryre-slaves.html

Strigoyan- Blood is on the menu.
http://fantasyfootballart.blogspot.com/2011/07/stunty-leeg-strigoyan.html

I will get to work on the stunty stars as soon as time allows.
Enjoy
