Hello fellow rat-lovers!
We better get some pictures of the Skaven infantry units up as well - there are a lot of them.
The
models below are made up of some of the plastic sets that came out just
as I stopped playing but the flexibility they offered was just amazing.
They made all the conversions I had been doing easy and I loved it.
Especially after the plastic sets that I "grew up" with wherein the
clanrats were as bland and boring as could be and the shape made
conversions difficult.
They
might look a bit more like apes in their bodyform but I was in love
with them anyways and the ease of building crazy stuff was amazing to
me.
First the champion, standard bearer and musician:

This
is a unit of Temple Guards - the bodyguard of my Grey Seer. I can't
remember if it was mentioned in the Skaven background or if I made it
up, but my Seer had his own bodyguard made up of light coloured (as
opposed to the overpriced Stormvermin - the bodyguard of the clan lord)
tough battleproven Skaven. Well as much as you could expect of skavens
:-). To represent their superior fighting skills I madly combined them
with the Chaos Warrior plastic set and had a load of fun with that.

| Stormvermin Converted |
And the final shots of the entire
unit - sporting all their captured equipment. This is about half the
unit and when pushing the bell around they looked impressive - really
representing the elite bodyguard who had been in a lot of fights.
