I would think any giant rat/rat-like creature would be most appropriate.

Rat men and mutant rats are certainly a thing to add, but I'm not sure I want to use skaven.

 I finally painted these Renegade Miniatures late war germans. I bought these Kevin Adams sculpts years ago.
Renegade suspended business a decade ago which is a big shame as Kev Adams did hundreds of historicals for them.



I also painted these Copplestone Turks.



The other five already got butchered some time ago as I bought them to convert them into German Freikorps, with press moulded pputty helmets. it didn't quite work out as I wished and the project got abandoned. Following the discussion here on LAF about the Dutch getting sucked into the war as the Doggerland raises from the sea, I decided to go for it using germans with added breast pockets and French Adrian helmets. I found the old turks in a box and remembered Copplestone also did Chinese with adrian helmets so I'll get me a nice birthday gift.



Last weekend I painted this German armoured car driver with a Frostgrave bull terrier. His armour reminded me of german trench armour so it's perfect.

If you don't believe in lead, you're already dead.

That dog  has been on my wants list for a bit now; it's just too cool :)

And you did an excellent job on him!

Love the driver as well. I think I have him floating around somewhere too...
Miniatures you say? Well I too, like to live dangerously...

You did an excellent job on the German Renegade figures - the trench armor and helmets look "lived-in."  The Armored Car driver and "friend" are marvelous.

Thank you all!

Who makes the driver figure?
it's one of Copplestone Castings' 'German Mercenaries'.

I have finally completed my Hexenjaeger captain and his lieutenant.  Inspiration from Grimm Brothers and Taika Waititi.

Those are really cool; they're looking grim indeed...  8)

Did you ever get to finish those Dutch? You'd be the first, as I fear my project has been relegated to long term strategic duty for now ::)

Well, no. Of course not!  :D :D

In reality, post-brexit mailorder from a EU-distributor took longer than expected. Let's say I lost the momentum for now.

The molemen are from Reaper.
