With the addition of the third Rat Ogre from Clan Moulder, another Packmaster was needed and therefore provided… It was difficult to photograph various angles of this guy due to the depth of field added by his Ogre-prodder. So some of these are only partially in focus. The above photo depicts the end of the prodder on which not anyone should wish to be…Read More →
Months pass, when out of the darkness a deep squeek-growl that turns into a roar is heard. From the rolling fog emerges the stuff of nightmares… Yet another Rat Ogre! It’s been a long time since I’ve been able to work on, let alone finish, any painting. But last night, I was finally able to get some painting done AND finished up this guy who was only partially done for ages! This one I was mostly doing to shake the rust off of the ol’ brushes. I think he came out okay; not my BEST work, but not a bad re-start model.Read More →
And here they are – together at last! I’m not sure yet while I’ll next be posting… Perhaps some homemade craft? Or some WhizKids D&D Minis? Perhaps another Reaper miniature I’ve painted for the D&D game I run for my workmates… I can’t say (because I don’t know), but stay tuned for more!Read More →
The final of this litter of rats from the Yellow Clan bears a rusty cleaver. He’s already seen some abuse, as is evidenced by his knuckles & nose… But alas, such is the price of using the models before sealing them! The next post will be the whole litter, gathered as one!Read More →
The fifth of this small growth of Yellow Clan Skaven has one of the largest hoods of his clanmates. Though he may not be the strongest or the most vicious of his clan, he is certainly one of the most cunning. He covers the armour he has acquired with his large cloak and hood. The intelligence gleams in his eyes, and off of the trinket he brandishes on his weapon. He hides his most prized possessions in a pouch worn on his belt under his shield. Clever rat! He is the epitome of Yellow Clan, and lives to rise in the ranks of the Skaven!Read More →
Although this little rat may not have gotten his paws on a set of armour, he’s managed to grab a rather large knife… …and a sturdy-looking shield! By the look of the bandages on his ankle, he may have escaped being a Skaven Slave and fought his way up to Clanrat status. He’s even managed to swipe a small bauble for his belt… He’s certainly not to be trifled with!Read More →
This particular Clan Yellow rat has managed to obtain even better armour for himself than Clanrat #13! Likely a leader-sort, or perhaps just more brutal and cutthroat than others of the clan – He has gathered his armour and will lead Clan Yellow to victory! And if victory is not assured, he will be the first to scurry away and assure his clan’s survival. I think what I like least about the paint jobs on this set of Yellow Clan Skaven are twofold: First, the teeth. I forgot to do multiple layers of white/off-white. Secondly, the tails. I forgot/neglected to do the multiple layers forRead More →
Clan Yellow is well-represented with this little guy… He may not have armour, but he is tough enough that he has not lost any of his cloak! There’s quite a bit I would have liked to have done better with this set of Clanrats, but I have SO many more to paint I’m just going to focus on improving my painting as I do more sets of them. I started this group quite some time ago, and then finished them after a long break. As such, they’re not terribly consistent, but I’m generally happy with how they look — especially when lumped in with theRead More →
Long overdue, here come some more Skaven Clanrats! First up, we have this fancy gentleman (er, gentlerat… who’s not so gentle): This guy has managed to outfit himself with a nearly complete set of armour. Front plate, back plate, and even a helmet (worn though they may be)… he’s pretty kitted out! Coming up, some more from Clan Yellow… Not as well-equipped, but just as dangerous!Read More →
The forces of the Empire and those of the Skaven faced off in a bloody battle the other day. These are the results (such as they are)… Both armies lined up in a pretty straightforward battle-line. The Empire got the jump on the approaching Skaven, and adjusted their lines forward just a bit. They fired all of their ranged weapons on the hulk of a monster, Boneripper (and his rider, Thanquol). Unfortunately, the mass of squirmy squeaky rats must have shaken their confidence just a bit and the entirety of the first ranged attacks scored only a single hit on Boneripper, who immediately regenerated andRead More →
