First Batch Skavenslaves Update
Update time! I did the clothes and the fur, now I need to work on the skin and some details here and there.
Painting the first batch of Skavenslaves
Hi there, I started painting the first batch of Skavenslaves. As you can see, unlike my Clanrats I’m going to paint them more nude with only patches of fur. This will further differentiate them – maybe Slaves are younger rats that haven’t developed their fur…
Assembling the Hell Pit Abomination
I’m still putting together Skaven models for some good painting fun over the next couple of weeks… and here is the Hell Pit Abomination. This model is stunning, breathtaking, maybe the best large model I’ve ever assembled. So much thoughtfulness and creativity went into the…

Maybe you’ve seen these already on one forum or another, but like every christmas GW comes around with some Megaforces. Think of a Battleforce but with more models and a bigger discount. This year they release one for Space Marines (surprise), but also for High…
