Kit bashed some skaven from clan rats and crypt ghouls + impact shoulder pads.

Tried out to paint it as an albino.

I think it turned out great. Do you have any suggestion on things to think about for the next 14 rats?

Looks good. I cant remeber who but someone did the same for the NAFC a year or so ago (im sure sombody will link soon) only thing to do is differentiate your positionals so more armour on your blitzers, throwing stance or ball on the throwes and whatever you feel will work for gutter runners.

I do love the look of this conversion, and in spite of seeing a similar one a little while ago, the look and execution of your rat is great!

Try using some storm vermin heads for blitzers?

By popular demand, more pictures of White Rat Thrashers. The pictures of number 1-9 is a little over exposed due to wrong camera setting¨. It is hard to take good photos in the winter in Sweden, it is so damn dark.

Thanx for the feedback guys. Glad you liked the team.

The only thing I regret about the team is that the Gutter runners did not get more dynamic poses (but they are made from regular clan rats and not from "ghoul bodies" so it was more static models from the get go).

As I think about my next project I know that I really enjoyed kitbashing the clan rats with the ghouls. Something similar would be to do that slann/horror team combo that mearl8252 came up with in this thread: link.

The thing is not to be orginal, but to have great teams. ;)

I have now desided to really make a "pink horror"-team, inpired of mearl8252:s team. But I want to dubble it as a Chaos pact team, not just Slaan. So have anyone any ideas on possible positionals on a Chaos pact pink horror team?

For Goblin I think a blue horror will do the trick, se the model on the left here: http://www.ninjabread.co.uk/images/tzee ... ations.jpg

That leave the modelhunting to capture the skaven, the dark elf, the troll, the mino and the ogre. Have you any suggestions?

For team name, is "little pact of horrors" to obvious and lame?

DixonCider: thanx.

The skaven blitzers head are from the "ratogre" sprue if I remember correctly.
On progress deciding the next team it will be "horror pact" but while I wait for the pink horrors to show up I have begun to paint an amazon team for my girl friend and some extra thralls for my vampire (8 is not enough). Pictures will come later.

By the way: Has anyone used the carriers of the "chaos warshrine" as bigguys? Ar a troll and an ogre in a pact team they could be fitting, if they are the right size.

What is happening? While I wait for the pink horrors I am trying not to get idle.

Mission: to get a nun team finished. The nun team is for my fiancee as she wants to play blood bowl but do not care for my teams. She wants her own.... As she sings in a gospel choir she thought the nuns was cool. The nun models are really easy and kind of fun to paint. The big question mark is now how to do the black cloth good.

Image


For my "own" team I speed painted some additional thing for my vampires. 8 thralls ain't enough but 12 will do, and I really like the coffin as a marker.
