    Massive salutes 👋👏✊to you for using an old metal Skaven model Dana! Old metal models seem to have more character and feel like the detail is more crisp to me. I'm probably totally wrong about that and it makes no difference but you know... it's one of those things where I pribably want locking up because I'm a bit too un hinged and off my rocker.

    That’s not a Tommyknockers cover, it looks like a piece from Troy Paiva’s insanely cool series Lost America. He was an OG painting with light photographer, and each roll took him hundreds of hours to shoot and develop. His work is incredible.

    This was such a fun paint scheme to watch you develop. I found it enjoyable seeing you go back and forth on colors, wondering what was next. I think you pulled off what you were inspired by and cant wait to see more! Also yes!! Great choice on such an old model, I wasnt even alive when this came out haha. I honestly believe that any persons introduction to a new army should be to start with a really old model. Theres just something about the antiquity of old pewter and finecast models that allows you to appreciate the history of a faction through the editions and it lets you know how far they have come. Especially in this case with Skaven who are about to get brand new models

    Tommyknockers is worth a read / listen imo. Plenty of King's books kinda fall apart in the third act, but its third act is among his best. The story overall is consistently tense, with ever-escalating stakes.
    Also thanks for this tutorial. I started an OSL piece, got as far as the blue and green, and then found your vid. You saved me a lot of head scratching and potential heartbreak! :)

  • @KamenRiderGreed

    I'm *SO* here for this! I cant wait to see how you paint up those new Skaven when they release! I'm also quite excited about the new Stormcast, but I didn't really take the plunge with Skaven because their kits were too old. Knowing theyre going to get a *massive* update(being one of the first two factions in the new edition) has me *very* excited for these funny lil' rats.
