OOOOOH! VERY WELL DONE! The brushwork & basing are SUPERB...GREAT color choices. I love the way you do the flesh tones.
The Rat Guy in the Yellow Cowled Robe is my new favorite in the Pack.

Many thaks Al :D
I really like the yellow one too. Great ol model. Actually it was a plague priest in the skaven bg but Adam told me to paint him in the same color theme of the others and so I went with a olschool choice :)
My favourite one remain the sorcerer, btw. The funniest one to paint and my first attempt in painting a magical sphere.

Stunning. Makes me feel all nostalgic.  :D

Thanks Diakon! Those model are a real joy to paint (apart for #2 that is one of the ugliest pose ever...:D)

I feel I've to upgrade my photographing skill, though  :?

really happy you like them Adam :)
Only four left and then they'll be ready to reach you.

You are too kind mate :)
About picture, I've to find a better way to use the background and light. I've two decent lamps but I always need to use a photo editor "auto adjust colors" function because my pics are always too dark. Actually the pics I've posted are a little darker than what models are in flesh. Well, I'm far better in photographing than in the past but still need to improve. :)

More lovely Skaven to drool over.  Echoing other comments: these really are amongst the best painted ratmen I've seen.  I've got some old Plague Monks lurking at the back of my painting desk somewhere and this is excellent inspiration to get cracking with them.  Thanks for sharing.

Oh mate, you are really too kind!  :) I'm happy to be of inspiration for you. I have not the link, but there was an incredible project here on LAF: a guy created an entire 3rd ed skaven army and his color scheme was a great inspiration for me. I'll try to find it again because it was really spectacular.

*** Shocked Abra Cadaver and the thread is alive again!  Shocked***

Uhm, it seems I'm getting used to threadomancy. Sorry guys.
Real life has transformed this commission in my personal painting Vietnam. BUT, I finally finished this goddam university...and I started to work 9-10 hours a day. :( My hobby-time now is concentrated in the week end and it's not that easy. BTW, I finished this commission. The longest ever. I'm glad Adam wasn't in a hurry for these minis.
Anyway, here are the piccies of the latest models. They are not the best pics ever, I toke them with a different setting cause I was in my parent's house without my usual photosetting.

1)





2)



3)



4)




...a groupshot of these four badvermins


As always, C&C welcome!
Cheers
Faber

Very nice minis and PJ, as usual! :)

I'm not very convinced by the sand on the base,.. but probably it's necessary for the vintage style! :)
