The History
I first started painting teams in March '09, I started off by painting a team for my brother-in-law. After that I wanted to try painting some other teams. Once I had painted them I didn't know what to do with them, so I ended up putting them on eBay. I received good feedback from the teams I sold so I decided to paint more and ordered large quantities of players and bases. Hopefully I will continue to produce teams for people round the world and continue to improve on detail to make the teams as detailed as possible.


The Technique
ShootFirst use 'Da Vinci' Kolinsky Marder paint brushes - sizes 0 (for base coats) to 00000 (for ultra fine detail) and Games Workshop paints which have a matt finish.

Once the players are painted a Humbrol Matt Varnish is applied to protect the players.

The boxes are designed on InDesign and printed onto 300gsm paper (coated for the lid, uncoated for the base).

Standard Subbuteo bases are used along with Stefan Corda 2K4 figures.
and for the teams we use SuperFooty players and bases.
