Old School Verminlord

This has got to be one of favourite ebay finds. I've loved this model from when i first started collecting Skaven. i usually hate working with the old metal models but this one was a joy to work on. Only part i had to change was his tail. His original tail was missing so i went looking through bit bitz box and funnily enough it was a piece from the new Verminlord kit that was a perfect fit!

Spunge's Hobby Desk: Deathwing Terminators, Verminlord & Roboute Guilliman

One of the things im working on now is a unit of Deathwing Terminators. Had these since the Dark Vengeance came out a few years back and never really had anything planned for them. I had started a patreon account to go with my YouTube channel and as a thanks to my friend how supported me through it i decided to paint up the unit for him.

Ebay Loot: Finally getting the original Verminlord

Anyone remember the Verminlord before the end times? Probably not. but its hard not to have a soft spot for the original model for what is essentially the skaven version of a demon prince. I nearly bought the original metal one brand new but when the newer kit came it got pushed to the side for the new shiney.

I have always kept my eye out for one on ebay but as usual it takes a while to get one at good price. Some prices had gotten really high but eventually i managed to pick it up for €14 including delivery. The only negative about it was his tail was missing. I knew that when buying it and it didn't bother me to much because the price was so good. I used a spare tail from the newer verminlord kit and i will add the Doom Glaive from that kit also.

Stay tuned for when i get around to painting this guy up. Should be fun and looking forward to adding him to my painted collection.

Finished Skaven Verminlord

I havnt posted to much lately but following on from my last post i did get my Skaven Vermonlord finished. I went with the deciver one just for the clan Eshin love and it turned out pretty decent in the end (There is always an intimidating factor when it comes to doing the new big kits). No mistakes on the plastic and it went together without much hassle. The hood part from its right side mask was a bit fiddly to get in but i sorted it. Few wip pictures below

Unboxing Skaven Verminlord

What a new kit for the skaven! This kit is GW at its finest and im not just saying that because im a skaven guy but for a single kit that gives you the choice of 5 different verminlords?! Thats model engineering at its finest! The new boxes are nice to look at (i put this in because it the first new kit i have bought in awhile) and it comes in two sprues. Anyways enjoy the video and dot forget to leave feedback!
