That is the problem in digging out old stuff: You can get distracted from what you should be doing....
Oh, too right. You dig through your older "finished" pile and think "Well, that was a nice idea, but if only I'd . . ." used inks at the time, had green stuff, had this sword I cut off this other fellow, had this other oddball color I picked up last week . . . "He could have been golden freaking gobbo." Oh yes. I've had those moments. And I expect I will have MANY more.
All the time, mate.
All the time....
Time for the Skaven.
These were my first Mordheim warband .
The basic plastic figures were bought on ebay to get me started and slowly replaced over time with better older models, but some of the original stuff remain as I have not had the time to get around to replacing all of them.
As you can see, most of the paintjobs are fairly basic, quick jobs to get them on the table.
The White Klaw Kabal!
Leader of the Kabal is the ratman known by his enemies as The Master, accompanied here by the two Night Runners, litter brothers and runts of the group, 'Itchy' and 'Scratchy' Stilletto;
Next up are the two tough guys and elite monsters of the band, the Black Skaven known to outsiders simply as 'The Warrior' and 'The Enforcer.'
These two are like a whirling maelstrom of destruction, armed with fighting claws and a set of skills and upgrades that make them a match for anyone in Krappfortt;
I had quite a bit of fun making and painting these, but did not notice the mouldline until taking the photo....D'oh!).
The final 'hero' of the warband is the Eshin Sorcerer known as 'The Hex,' accompanied here by his famililiar 'Fleabag.'
(He is the third Sorcerer to have joined the Kabal, the magic-users of this band do not seem to last too long for one reason or another!)
Next up are the various warrior groups that make up the bulk of the band, the ever expendable Verminkin;
(These were all the original ebay purchases, the only thing I did was add the various bucklers/shields).
The final group of Clanrats are armed with spears and captured shields and form the bodyguard of the 'Master;'
Following along in the wake of the band, devouring any scraps left by them are the mutated Giant Rats of Krappfortt;
No band of warriors of the Underworld would be complete without the services of one of the fearsome creatures bred by Clan Moulder, the Rat Ogre!
Known simply as 'The Monster', it usually leaves a trail of destruction wherever it goes;
Finally, a group shot of the whole band....
