Re: The legendary Screamin'Bells [New Skaven/Rat-Team]
Wow! Your sculpting is really really good! The poses you have chose and great and the general look is really complete, especially the fur (Which I think is something so often done wrong) looks wonderful. The Lineman who is scratching his head looking a little sheepish is my favourite, he really captures how I think skaven linemen would be on the field... fodder. Maybe you could do one with a bit more cowering going on which would be appropriate for the line of scrimmage rats.
I have to say that multiple breasts always look a little silly (Out side of Slaanesh, Total Recall and the hitch hikers guide to the galexy). It really makes me think of a Slaanesh skaven before a rat-woman. Arent skaven females ment to be huge and docile contantly either giving birth of concieving?

That's just fan-tastic! I love them, and I love how easy they will be to use together with GW rats, seeing how their heads have the same look. Marvellous!
EDIT: How about making a goblin-sized ratman? Or perhaps more than one and people could use them for Underworld teams of all rats!

I like the idea and the positioning of the body, good job!
The only thing that seems to me a bit weird is the size of the head, seems out-of-proportion compared to the body.

Re: The legendary Screamin'Bells [New Skaven/Rat-Team]
Thank you for all the feedack! Today i tried to implement your improvment suggestions directly.
@Angor: I tried to solve the "breast-problem" by adding something like a bra. Now the first row is covered and the shreds hanging about the other four breasts... hope that's working...
@Dark Duke: You're right. I scaled-down the head a bit. Snout and nose are much thinner now. Maybe the long hair is intensifying the impression of the "big head" too.
@Akka: I dont think im going to create other sized ratmen. The advantage of the human-sized rats is that you can bring them in totally dynamic positions. That is not possible (to me
) by using a smaller scale.

Hope she's looking better now,
regards,
shitzzo

You're right, the long hair has that effect. Have you finished it? I liked more the previous one (thinner).shitzzo wrote:@Dark Duke: You're right. I scaled-down the head a bit. Snout and nose are much thinner now. Maybe the long hair is intensifying the impression of the "big head" too.

The addition of the bra and the shoulder pad improved her appearance, at least in my opinion, well done!

Re: The legendary Screamin'Bells [New Skaven/Rat-Team]
Very nice, just some questions.
1.are the arms really thin? They look a tad off in the pic.
2. Have you considered putting some freckle like dents in the face to represent whisker holes?

@Akka: Ratazons
Nice idea and a nice name too, but don't forget I'm just an amateur in sculpring and I've never sculpted a whole team... So I am only thinking a bit at a time.
@Dark Duke: These long "sausages" are only the basis for the upcomming details. There will be no dreadlocks or something like that on the finished rat.
She's not a hippie, but rather a ratazon like Akka would name it
@arthurinkpen: the arms are not finished, will get thicker and maybe also some armor parts. Right now I have seen these freckles... but... I did not do that, so i think it's dirt on the mini. Have to check that today...
Best regards,
shitzzo

I really like Lukas's work ... but the head on this figure just seems out of proportion to the rest of the figure for this one.
I like the details just feels like the scale of the figure is a bit off.

I think it is fine. Not saying it may not be off but I don't see it (Have to admit I do need new glasses, though).

Hey guys and thanks for all your feedback!
The rat is nearly finished, only some details and the left hand are missing. Hope you like her:
