I painted my first team in March 2009,
when I decided to buy a blank Subbuteo team to paint in the
colours of Liverpool for my brother-in-law. I enjoyed painting
that team and decided to sell a couple more teams on eBay.
After receiving some good feedback on the items I decided
to paint more teams and eventually produced this website in
order to sell them on a larger scale.
I am now painting for people all round the world from America,
Australia, Greece, Italy and more. For casual collectors,
competitive Subbuteo players and even companies such as ESPN
& The Homes of Football.
ShootFirst use 'Da Vinci' Kolinsky Marder paint brushes -
sizes 2 (for base coats) to 00000 (for ultra fine detail)
and Games Workshop paints which have a matt finish.
The boxes are designed on InDesign and printed onto 300gsm
paper (coated for the lid, uncoated for the base).
We use SuperFooty players and bases.

What a fantastic product! Shoot First not only provided us
with retro and high quality figures, but an excellent customer
service experience. The figures were sent to 20 very happy
sport journalists who all passed on their thanks and recommendations.
