AdamH’s Skaven - Rank and File – The myriad masses of matted mercenaries (234 Points)

January, the best month of the OWAC, motivation is high, plenty of models to choose from. It is all downhill from here :P

For the first month I decided to capitalise on the motivation that is high at the start of the challenge to try and push through some of the less exciting models. Now I do genuinely like pretty much all of the models in the Skaven range but I have already painted about 40 clanrats in the previous challenge so at this point it is just a case of bulking up the numbers.

It was time to paint another big mainstay unit of clanrats!

Just like my previous unit I decided to include a couple of the old Rat Ogres to bulk out the unit even further, this is mainly because I find them a little small to accurately represent the hulking monstrosities of actual Rat Ogres, and because I will be adding the 5^th edition models later in the challenge and I want them to stand out.

Next up we have a closer shot of the unit command team, went with a different banner type due to not having the space for a traditional hanging style:

Finally just because the models can look a little samey when pictured together I thought I would highlight some of the fun details hiding on them:

My submission for January is as follows:

UNIT	EXTRAS	#	TOTAL
REGIMENTS
Clanrats (6)	Standard (6) Musician (6)	37	234
TOTAL			234

Coming up next month will be more basic troops, I’m going to try and get the unit of Slaves done while my motivation lasts but I might start work on some Giant Rats for a bit of variety.

Thanks for stopping by, as always we have lots of great armies coming along this year so make sure you check out all of the other entries, especially my hippy dippy friend Sam and his flower sniffing forest bois.
