My first adventure with bitz: Skaven warband

So cool. Do the walls on the bases line up into one continuos one? If so, can we see a pic?

Thanks everyone for the kind words.
UnderBheit: The rope has a special place in my heart because I have never seen it done before and coming up with 'original' ideas in miniatures just doesn't happen often for me.
Gub: "will they be painted any time soon?" soon is a relative term, but the plan was to assemble the entire starting band before paint hits them. So probably not soon by your definition.
Identity: I am glad someone saw the prehensile tail. after loading the pictures I realized it wasn't too easy to see.
Deaf: The swords are also my favorite and the first one made. He is my assassin adept so he better look good. right?
Lanyssa: I would love to see more people convert some ninjas, are you volunteering to continue the ninja craze?
Chad: Short answer no the walls don't line up. Some of the walls are angled on the bases so it would be difficult to do that. I did however have grand plans of making a special building for these guys with proper spots for each where the walls would be continuous and I was going to have a rope hanging down to meet the other rope, but I don't see it happening any time soon. Or ever (being completely honest)

those are indeed some intense poses

now that i look at my rats they look BORING standing still...


Awesome conversions!!

very nice mini's

few more rats have been put together two wielding slings and two wielding clubs




Well over half way to start my painting

LOOK'N GOOD! I REALLY like the little Ray Guy by the wall. NOW on to the painting!

"teenage mutant ninja skaven" comes to mind when i look at your warband

i do like the dynamic poses, there's alot of personality in your mini's

Wow!I can not belive I missed this post,So agan WOW!! nicely done

I'm very fan....
Very cool minis, with dymanic poses.

I wait for paint version.

Hey Val', nice to see you there

Yeah, the skaven beyond the wall is definitely the best, I like him a lot !!!

I am little jealous of the result!!
But my skaven are a little bit so old .....

One day... I try to make somethink so... beautiful....

Vall'

Thanks for all the nice comments. One more sling wielding rat has been added to the mix and I found two old metal rats I had got from a friend couple years back eshin sorcerer and veskit. Now I just need to add my nightrunners which are going to start with slings and hopefully quickly get upgraded to hunting rifles which are the models I am planning on making next. That and my rat ogres and this band is started and ready for some expansion. Paint will hopefully be hitting them sometime this month.

They look AWESOME i want to see em painted too

However i do have a little question about the skaven behind the wall:

How does the wall affect game play as in making use of cover and such? Does the wall provide cover, or is it counted as the model himself ?

hadn't ever thought about it but I would say NO to cover it is just part of the model. That would be unfair to use it as cover. If it were cover I would build three giant walls and a roof on all my minis then they could only be attacked from the front.
