Hello all. How's it going?

I'm painting the Skaven half of the IoB box for a contest and I'm moving on to the rat orges.... now for the rats... no brainer... white fur, pink toes, pink fingers, pink tail.... (attached is a picture)

But the rat ogre are WAY more skin... mostly skin in fact.... but I still want that lab rat feel.

Any suggestions?

paint it a sickly green colour

Agreed; some sort of green or purple tint will add tremendously to the effect.

check out some bruising colors. Rat Ogres are violently brought up and a touch of bruising will show this perfectly.
