[WM] Skaven
« on: October 09, 2012, 04:46:40 AM »
I figured these should be posted where WM players can see them rather than lost in a forum for other games  :) Some folks here will have seen them already.

These are the current completed units. I have a Storm Vermin unit on the go right now so will post them too once they're done.











and a partial group shot (not the best photo) including the other clan rats and swarm I've done so far


Sorry for all the wierd photo sizes  :-[

Hi, those rats are great. Rat ogres are impressive. I like the choice of the colours. Looking forward to see more pics :)

These look great, I also like the colour choice, they'll be a great sight on the battlefield.

Wow, it's a very good looking army. I have never had the choice to have a skaven oponent, i'd like to see such a cool army as my oponent some day.

Someone else with a thing for the good old vile ratkin. Nice job, especially that hunk of warpstone! Glad somebody else is out there doing some rats  ;D

Really nice work. I like the choice of painting the storm vermin white. It makes them stand out in a cool way.

Wow, those look good.  Maybe I'll start painting Skaven instead...

Great painting! You don't see Skaven much in warmaster scale, which is a pity as I think they are one of the nicest armies going and if you are true to the skaven background fluff, its the only scale you can do them justice with really - none of this 100 - 200 man army nonsense in 28mm!

Neek neek, the clans are gathering and the Horned Rat is scheming dominion overt he lands of men.......

They look great Dobbsy.

What are you thoughts on 6 strips per base? Too much? Can you still make out enough detail after having spent all that time painting it?
