Holme Originals

Back again, and just enough time to write a blog post before (Lockdown cliche incoming) taking my banana bread out of the oven!

I've previously posted about making Holme FC figures for Charity, and here are another set that I made... must be pushing a year ago now.

These are all effectively Football Manager Regen players, featured in a series on the YouTube Channel: Lollujo. Check it out- honestly, watching someone else play Football Manager takes a lot of the stress out of it!!

The series these players featured in was based much more on story telling than tutorials on how to play the game, and all of them came through the Holme youth academy, and featured prominently in a run from tier 8 up through the divisions. Along with Mick Powell and Anthony Harris, they were dubbed "The Holme Originals"!

Anyway, the figures themselves are loosely based on the FM regen pics, (so, right hair and right skin colour!!)

The sponsor on the shirt is The National Autistic Society (who the money from the ebay sales went to) and you may have realised that the design on the third shirt is also based on the NAS logo.

If you were wondering about the number font, Fernandes and Phillips got more game time in the EFL, while Morris was one of the few good enough to cut it in the Prem!!

Overall, these figures, along with those of Powell and Harris, raised over £150 for chairty!
