Old Skaven Madness - part 27c - Clanrats / Nightrunners

Hello all,
More plastic skaven madness - the Mordheim era plastic sets really allowed for easy conversions - here the Skavens have been been combined with everything from Chaos Warrior weapons to human Crossbowmen to create a dynamic scouting duo.

 Notice the tail-whip, must be unique :-)

All the best,
Kasper

Old Skaven Madness - part 27a - Clanrats / Nightrunners

Hello all.
The Mordheim plastic sets really made converting easy and allowed for much more dynamic Skavens without the touble of pinning and sawing through metal.

Great fun.

All the best,
Kasper

Old Skaven Madness - part 27 - Clanrats / Nightrunners

Hello all,
A few more skavens - this time some clanrats or nightrunners. I really loved those plastic sets - it was so much fun putting those rats together and the diversity was brilliant.

Beware the flailing rats!

Best regards,
Kasper

Old Skaven Madness - part 23 - Gutter Runners

Hello all,
as the weekend disappears so do the Eshins performing their evil deeds...

Wasn't that an artistic introdution? Let's just see a two more of my old nightcrawlers and a group shot:

The one with a club and net has always been a favorite of mine - looks more likely to maul someone in a backstreet than to sneak around. Even the eyepatch is cool :-)

Brilliant models.

Best regaards,
Kasper

Old Skaven Madness - part 22 - Gutter Runners

Hello all - there is plenty of Skaven images to get through, so to speak.

This time it is time for those deadly ninjas of Clan Eshin. I alwys loved how the authors got ninjas into the warhammerian and Skaven lore - a lost clan, heads east and becomes ninjas; simpel and effective :-).

The old models (the ones below) were really diverse and each felt "alive", i.e. had equipment and a style that set him apart from other vermin. I really enjoyed that. Also they do not look like organised soldiers at all, the ninja "warfare" style is really predominant.

 I love how individual these two are (even though it clearly is the same model used as a base). The barbed net is brilliant and so is the sling - although that is a pretty massive slingshotstone :-). What was the rule for nets? Extra armour save or something?

Anyways, all the best,
Kasper

Old Skaven Madness - part 15 - Deathmaster Snitch

Hello all,

A few pictures of another of my old Skaven miniatures - this time its the Deathmaster! Not only the best name ever in the Warhammer world, it is also one of the best Skaven models ever made.

He just incorporates the entire race and the evil assassin twist is always nice.

The upgraded Snitch - with warpstone flails :-).

For some reason this version of the model (I think I have three of these models) has been modified a bit. He served as a Gutterrunner champion or similar and if I remember correctly he had an option for flails - or else I just enjoyed flails at the time :-).

Best regards,
Kasper

Old Skaven Madness - part 14 - Gutterrunner champion

Hello all,
Is there anything on the other side of the number 13? I guess there must be so another picture coming up of my old Skaven models.

This time it is part of the Clan Eshin wave; a Gutter Runner champion who must have gotten too close to the warpstone on a mission or two.

Six clawed arms - must be vicious in a hand-to-hand combat!

Best regards,
Kasper
