I love those skaven models too and they are wonderfully painted. Terrific. Your dwarfs are outstanding as well. Really love your painting style.
cheers-

The dwarfs paintjobs are fantastic, every bit as good as the Skaven. I see so many minis here I used to own! I really need to track down anoth 'dwarf lords of legend' set...

Started work on custom Skaven dice tonight, after cursing at photoshop and my father in law's printer for a few hours I managed to get these designs printed out on water slide decal paper. I'll give the page a few coatings of acrylic spray varnish first then slap them onto the dice and seal them with some halford's lacquer. It all adds to the fluff, and Oldhammer is all about the fluff :)

Skaven themed saga dice, the 5 faces will be lacquered and then i'll place the horned rat icon on the final face.

Great project.

The dice seem to have come out very well. I made some Saga dice using sticker sheets - but cutting out the individual stickers was hard work, and then getting the backing to peel off without making a mess of the sticker wasn't easy too.

Were the decals fairly easy to get on the dice? I imagine with the clear backing you could cut round them fairly approximately, which would speed things up.

Had a little break from painting for a week or so, but did two more Bugman's command figures tonight to swell the dwarf's ranks, Bugman's troopers up next with any luck
