Showcase: Skavenslaves with Hand Weapons

Here they are, proper pictures of the full unit of Skavenslaves.

There are 25 slaves, I know most people tend to field them in bigger numbers, but painting 25 models was already hard enough for me. I built the unit of unarmoured bodies from the Clanrats set, to differentiate them further I gave them only sticks and small knives and painted them more nude with only patches of fur. I really like how they came out. What do you think? Tell me in the comments!

Really solid unit, great colour choices. I'm an old school man at heart, but I love the new skaven plastics.

the skin look pretty cool…maybe the clothes could be a bit more dirty?

A very well painted cohesive unit. Looks great! I particularly like the little red eyes complementing the green uniform. Throughout the unit there's very effective shading/highlighting. No dry-brushing here! Good job, you must be very happy with all your hard work.

Awesome. They look great. The cohesive color scheme combined with the weapons and body choices to set them apart from clanrats on the battlefield all work really well together. Great job.
