byrdja0 Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 Wanted to start showing off my WIP rat guard. Went Skaven so that I could also play Renegade and Heretics if I wanted to. Tried Horde. Currently excited about Scions. Been working on it off and on now for about 6 months. Only recently joined B&C. Here are pictures of my first rat sentinels for a recon unit. Will add more pics soon of the rest of the vermin horde. Let me know what you think.

Inso Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 I'll be watching this with interest :) I am all for giving new stuff a go and if you manage to do this well, I reckon you'll have a cracking army when you are finished. I'd like to see how you've converted the troops. Also, if you aren't aware, Mantic have a range of relatively cheap rats that may be useful to you: http://www.manticgames.com/mantic-shop/deadzone/factions/product/veer-myn-faction-starter.html http://www.manticgames.com/mantic-shop/deadzone/factions/product/veer-myn-faction-booster.html Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/323218-mechanized-rats/#findComment-4419879 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akrim Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 Abhuman rat men piloting mechanical walkers, yep it's sci-fi! Yes the Mantic Veermyn (see what they did there?) are a neat line.

Ferox Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 Looks awsome. The whole idea of giant rats with weapons i scary. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/323218-mechanized-rats/#findComment-4423304 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icepick Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 An interesting idea, this is going to be a very unique project! Looking forward to seeing more, keep up the good work.

Canadian_F_H Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 Great. Looks about as awesome as I'd imagined. Blending in some of the mantis ones could seriously help variety.

Brother Captain Ed Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 I like it! I had considering doing something similar for Ratling snipers: why not actual rats?? Keep 'em coming!

byrdja0 Posted April 5, 2017 Author Share Posted April 5, 2017 Been a while since I posted any progress. Wanted to show off a few pics. My green stuff skills are non existent and I can't afford all the models so I get my brother's help from the plumbing supply store that he works at. Also small problem, somehow the rats found a baneblade.
