[Faber]

Yesterday was a nice and quite day for painting, so I finished the first "test" model. If Adam likes the style I'm going on the rest of the gang
Here's the result:




What do you think Adam?
As always, C&C welcome guys!

Thanks Tom! I'm really happy you like it. I'll bring it with me in Verona so you can see it in flesh.

nice,clean Paintjob  Looking forward to the Rest (dont forget the Groupshot  )Willing to share how did you painted the Rust Effect on the Sword? 

[DeafNala]

That is one FINE LOOKING Rat Guy...I love the skin tones. VERY WELL DONE!

[Funghy-Fipps]

Seeing this thread reminded me of just how much I love Skaven.  Can't wait to see them all painted to the same cool standard.

Thanks mate, I'll do many groupshots
About the sword:
1) a basecoat of GW Boltgun Metal
2) a GW Badab Black wash
3) a soft drybrush with MIG Old Rust pigment starting from the hilt and decreasing
4) a Boltgun Metal drybrush starting from the sword point and decreasing.
5) a softer VGC Chaimail drybrush as an higlighting of the previous stage.
hope it helps

Thanks mate! I was very doubtful about wich skin tone to use on these rats, I'm glad you like it

Thanks mate! I love skaven since my first miniature game was Advanced Heroquest
I'm pretty happy with this first test, let's see what I can do on the rest. There are some heroes in the gang that really need my best paintjob

[Marine0846]

Great painting.
Love the painting on the face.
But really only a face a rat's mother would love.

[aggro84]

Awesome. Great colors. I love the rust.

I'm a big fan of more realistic/gritty painting.
