What fur colour I should chose for my Skaven?

Post by narkotic »

I'm in the process of getting my Skaven squad painted (I'm undecided about the color scheme: either peach/dark green or white/peppermint).

The team is made up by 2nd ed. Skaven, will have all 16 diferent Skaven models, one old 3rd ed. WFB Rat-Ogre and coloured baserings.

I'm making up my mind what colour(s) the fur should be, but couldn't come to a definite conclusion so far.

What do you think?

Brown means brown (!)

Black means black/dark grey

White means white/light grey

thanks!

I vored brown cuz I like things the same(ish)

I might have voted black / white etc. but would take the white for a thrower and not a GR...

I agree with the second line in Dave's post, ie the throwers white/grey.

You might even be right, though my Skaven team looks pretty neat, all brown fur.

Everyone brown except the SV (darker brown- black).

I would say the best thing to do is to mix some colours to get some diversity . At the moment Joker is painting a skaven team for me . He go for Dark (false black) on the vermin, one oe the thrower will be white (albino) as one of the GR

For the linerat, i like diversity, so tahir color will vary

Paint them all Goblin Green, then you'll have a real team instead of some stupid overgrown mice :lol:

I always did the throwers white because the white rats were supposed to be the smarty types.
The Storm Vermin black because...well duh.
The Gunner Runners I usually did a tan/light brown sort of mix or gray.
And the linerats were just brown.

I'd do both SV and GR in black (assassins and secret police always look good in black 8) ).
