The legendary Screamin'Bells [New Skaven/Rat-Team]

[Podfrey]

*Bins off conversion plans for new skaven team and waits for the casting.....*

They look awesome! Keep going!!

[Setomidor]

I would be keen on buying them as well They're really that awesome.

I'm not really in to how GW does this kind of things, but having your lads replace the current Skaven range would probably be a great idea...

Big THANKS to everyone left feedback or just read the topic!

@size: proportion of these rats are more human like. As you could see by the "step-by-step-picture-tutorial" i used a dummy to create each rat. The dummy sure had the proportions of a human, not of a rat May be that is why they look just different the GW skaven. Last one are smaller and thicker than the Screamin'Bells-Rats. But in my opinion thats well fitting... and so you get the possibility to make these guys more dynamic, what is not/hardly possible with some brawny miniatures (good looking dynamic dwarfs are nearly impossible)

@next figure: to show also the caracter of the cowardly rats, i am planing to create a player standing at the line beside the big guys of the opponent to block... no, to get blocked by them.

So in my head the model should look really frightened, step out eyes, heands at his mouth, tail between his legs, and so on.

A bit like this guy i sculpted some years ago:

WOW!

I never though that I would find a skaven team that I would place at the same level with the 2ed ones.

I will be monitoring that with interest since they are way more dynamic than the 2eds and I hope that they mix well together.

looks nice, but i hope the rest of the linemen aren't like that

don't want a full team of scared players, skaven are meant to be the fastest team and blood bowl players tough!

he does look like the latest GW skaven as well with the posing, not a big fan of those either

[shitzzo]

Hi Grumbledook,

I don’t think the rest of the linerats will be like that one. After the two dynamic and serious running/catching rats I was glad to do something static and just funny
But you are still right: A whole team with linemen like this would sure be peculiar. So there will be only one humorous "often-blocked-rat" like that.

But… by the way, I don’t see anything funny or humorous by GWs latest Skaven, unfortunately…

Best regards and THANKS for commenting,

Hey shitzzo,

Just want to say these figures are looking really awesome, how many different scuplts are you planning on doing and when will I be able to buy them?

cool, sums up what I was trying to put across glad you agree, team is looking good.

Love the scared Linerat!

It brings back the sillyness and the fun of some of the 80s figs from Granny.

Now, the throwers are the guys that I am waiting to see with impatience...

[shitzzo]

Happy new year to all gnawers!

Now the linerat is nearly finished. I only forgotten the little sreamin'bell and some corrections here and there...









hope you like it and best regards,

shitzzo
