So.... @NIGHTBRINGER , finally a use for mantics skeletons which you can get for cheap.

Doesn't mantic have a line of totally-not-TombKings as well?

More like using up my bag log on something that might be useful.


And now for something completely ratty

 

[Aginor]

Raaaaaaaats!!!!

I think a thin sepia shade all over the models would do them a lot of good.

Box of plague monks and a battletome are in my house now.

5 more rats with hand weapons painted.

 

[Aginor]

If I ever paint Skaven I will also have to find a way to speed paint them. No way I'd stay sane painting 200 rats otherwise.

5 Skyre Acolytes

They look like older Poisoned Wind Globadier sculpts - they’re certainly not the current sculpts. Are they still GW?

Had a fun game today against gloomspite gitz. Was great fun and highlighted a few things:

1. Warpfire throwers and Skyre Acolytes are lovely at roasting things that teleport behind you, keep them in your back lines

2. need to step it up on clanrat painting. Units of 20 are sub optimal. This weekend on the hobby front will be painting what I have primed then prepping more clannies.

3. Snagrat is broken.

Here's my acquaintance Phil (gloomspite gitz) being cheerful before t1.
