I'm generally not a big fan of skaven but your have won me over with the paint scheme, the flesh and the grey fur contrast works amazingly well together and the gritty dirty armour really sets it off

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

 lol Thanks mate!

Awesome. Great colors. I love the rust.  :-*

I'm happy you like it Aggro. Have you noticed my improvement in taking pics? ;) New lamp set and a photo editor. Seems better than my previous ultra dark pics :D

vedi un pò tu!

Non te le meriteresti, ma le porterò. :)

Me likey!  :D

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

Thanks Joe! :) I think skaven are better with some realistic painting on the metallics. Just like halflings need a cartoonish painting :)

Thanks mate! When I saw this model I immediately thought that he need a bronze armour with some verdigris. The colour of the fur was a consequence. :D

Thanks for supporting guys, it's much appreciated :)

Cheers!

Jackwrench mentioned you were painting up some sweet skaven minis.  They look fabulous!   :-* :-* :-* And I don't normally dig skaven per se. Great job!

VERY WELL DONE! I really love what you're doing with the Rat Guys...GREAT color choices. With all the Oh-So-Cutesy Mouselings that are infesting the hobby, it's good to see some finely painted Rats with the proper feral outlook on life.

I finally managed to paint the third model of this commission :)
Actually it is one of my favourite. Adam asked me to paint at least one albinous rat: to me it was obvious to paint this way the horned sorcerer :D

here's the result:






and, as usual, the until-now groupshot :)



What do you think guys? Do you like it Adam?
C&C always welcome! :)

cheers
