Skaven Monstrosities from Warhammer Forge
August 13, 2011 by beerogre
Check out the new Skaven monsters from Warhammer Forge... first up... the Exalted Vermin Lord!
Followed closely by the horrific Brood Horror... it looks a lot like a naked mole rat... now there's a creepy beastie!
Very nice. I always loved the concept of skaven and they were my first ever warhammer army. I always make sure they are in my WFRP’s too lol
Never mind Skaven, I think the Brood Horror would make a great generic nasty to pounce on unsuspecting adventurers in a dungeon. Doubt they’ll stand about long enough to as for its species 🙂
Forge world really know how to sculpt. Every thing they do look fantastic and the nasty mole rat is superb. Love it
Now thats what I call great sculpting. For a moment with the chaos dwarves I thought they where getting laxed in the creative side. But as always big ugly beasts will bring out the best in them.
Especially like the Lord, excellent sculpt.
Well based too on the ruined arch, though not sure how it supports his weight? lol
Giant molerat is scary!
Never mess with a giant molerat with PMT!!!
“though not sure how it supports his weight?”
Carefully 😛
Ahh Skaven my first ever army. I wish these had been around in the 90’s!
Now then, pay off the credit card or buy a Vermin lord?
love them both
really nice :9 skaven truly is the coolest and best looking army … if it wasnt for the sour taste left by randomhammer id probably pick these up
that mole rat should be in the Fallout Series, its perfect for a mole rat brood mother, i can just imagne it walking into a cave somewhere in the waste land i see this, i pull out the fat man, nuke it
Is it just me or does there seem to be a new mechanic here, GW leave a something loose and it is solved by models from FW, I know it is the same company but still so much for GW being the one stop shop for everything. Unless everything is just core units and the odd Finecast.
@rasmus: that’s nothing new, FW has been doing that for some time now… though that big, silly Thunderwolf Cav hole will thankfully remain unfilled by FW… 😉
I love both sculpts, really ace looking! The only thing I find… off… about the Vermin Lord is the muscle-bound look of him. I was hoping for something more… spindly? Hunched??
Still gonna pic it up, though.
@ironmonger , My fault, I only left the historical for the more fantastic games – And anyway the Warhammer Forge seem to do a lot more than FW ever did for Fantasy (I have yet to fall for 40K) – Just Imagine where they would be with Warhammer Forge, if Rick Priestly where still running it ?
