So I'm currently painting a Clan Pestilens warband and I was wondering what kind of model do you or would you guys use as a Rat Ogre. IIRC GW used to make rat ogres that were sufficiently diseased looking but not anymore.

I'm sure some of the options in the boxed set include some rather repsulive gigantic boils, just paint them up to look full of pus and the surrounding skin a reddy sore looking hue and you've got one mean Rat Ogre suitable for Clan Pestilens.

Indeed. the new box kit of the Rat ogres comes with several boil lit models, also, it comes with a healthy dose of arms that are skinned and with two hands, with some clipping and modelling you could have some degenerating leper style rat ogres

I quite like the new skaven models unfortunately they didn't release new Plague monk as IK find the current edition very ugly. This is the reason that my Clan Pestilens warband will include only models from the 90's as I think that's when GW was at it's best scuplting-wise. But I think I remember back then there was a Rat Ogre with a torn rag over it's head and that is what i'm looking for, that made that rat ogre very Pestilen-ish.
Anyone familiar with the rat ogre I'm talking about?
