Unknown Skaven

Hello,

I didn't know exactly where to post this, so sorry if I'm in the wrong forum. Anyway, here we go.

I saw this picture of a Skaven in a PDF and would like to know what it is called so I can try to buy it from somewhere (GW seems to no longer have it).

Hi, I thing this is the rat you're looking for:

Yours seems to be converted by this original model.So you can order it and convert it!!and put some personal style in it!!

makes me think of a self made Lord Snikch Deathmaster ?
never seen this one though

Yup, that's definitely Deathmaster Snitch, converted to be holding different weapons than before.

He normally carries a pair of weeping blades, with a third held in his tail, and a spiked ball on the tip of his hood. This conversion removes all three weeping blades, gives him normal swords and an empty tail, and it looks like the spiked ball was cut from his hood.

I think I know where you saw it

where exactly ?
not in the skaven, freelancers or mercenaries section as far as I could see ?

the rules document, under skaven

You are correct. I saw it in your rules document. On Page 43 of this document, there is a Necromancer copyrighted Till F.S.
What company is this? I'd like to find some alternatives to GW.

S'ry, it's mine and just one hell of a geared up flagellant. Glad you like it, though! :D

Components:
Flagellant body, arms, staff, head, details
Plague monk book, scroll
Kroot bag

It's so obvious that's a flaggellant (once you look at Asp's link!).

The flaggellant box is a converter's dream disguised as a nightmare. At first you think it's going to be hell to work with since the torso and legs are one piece... but they are the most dynamic torso-leg one pieces I've seen.

Didn't think about using it as a necromancer though. Adding that to my favorites, excellent bits choices and great bashing.

I did like you suggested and got a Snikch and converted it! I am finally done!

Sorry for reviving old topics, but I have a question:

I'm currently doing a Skaven Eshin warband (simoultaniously with my 3000point skaven army) and I'm already using the new Deathmaster Snikch as my Assassin Adept (with a few modifications) and I was considering using the old model as a black skaven, now my question is:

How many parts does the old model come in? It seems that the tail is seperate, is this correct?

Thanks!

If I remember correctly, the tail is not separate. I cut it away from the model and spent some time making the cape look nice anyway. My tail is part "original tail" and part green stuff.

I am not sure on this though, it was a while ago I did the model so if anyone knows better, please correct me.

The old model is a one piece mini.

Ah, okay thanks!

I decided to use the Mordheim Assassin Adept minis as my Black Skavens! Just have to order them home then and hopefully they got enough brain to send me one of each and not two of the same
