Mayve it's different aspect of the vermin lord, and these aspect are not necessarly related to the clans

Green stuff some boobs and a second pair of arms/claws and you have a furry greater deamon of Slaanesh.

That's an epic model, WHFB is getting some fantastic releases with this End Times arc.

Is everyone else looking at a different model?

It looks awful. The gigantic horns make his head look tiny, his pose is stupid (why is he holding a Necron ressurection orb and standing on his own glaive), his braid beard things look silly, and his legs and feet just look weird.

I like the model too, thanks for the pics

Those horns are so gorgeous, although it makes me a little sad that my beastmen models have such small horns. I can't wait to see the four other versions of the verminlord now.

Verminlord: Really neat model. I look forward to seeing it in greater detail and also to seeing the other build options. It would be nice to see a better shot of the detail on the face of the model--right now it's looking very beastman-like...

Rumours: I'm really curious to see if the new rat ogre kit is a dual build with new rat ogres. The existing plastics are atrociously bad.

The model is indeed amazing. Now I have to start a skaven army damnit

Where have you seen him?

Twitter ftw

I had just decided I wasn't going to do Skaven. Now I'm really not sure.

I want something that god-emperor damn cool in 40k. What a beautiful model!

Those photos are already in this thread

As ever with GW sculpts these days, it's very nearly amazing except for the dumb pose that ruins the overall look. Why oh why is it standing on it own glaive

Yeah that's how I feel haha.

Because he wants to be the Wolfen Prowler from Confrontation:

I like his pose actually I think.

Yeah, I don't mind it. Prowler's one of my favorite Confrontation models.


So, which Friday is this going up for pre-order? I need to know what night to stay up on to stalk the GW page so I can grab one before they sell out.

Ah damn I'm pretty disappointed in that model. Its a little much with those horns but I am thinking its the paint job its kind of purply.

I will be buying one anyways tho! Because skaven are the best and the greatest!

Model releases generally don't sell out, but...the White Dwarf cover says "January" suggesting it's next Friday.

I take it back the model is nice but I might clip off some of those horns

I'm assuming there'll be other horn/head options in the kit.

You might better ask why Necrons are holding warpstone orbs. Skaven models holding spheres of warpstone for magic use have been a thing since before Necrons were even a concept.

I don't know about anyone else but feth me that's a badass looking rat daemon! Looks like I picked the wrong time to quit Skaven lol

Hmm.. I love skaven as an army (and they're the only WFB army I kept).. but that model? err pass. If you want a big vermin lord you can buy the FW one which actually looks like a demonic rat instead of.. whatever the hell that thing is.

That sure isn't in the theme of how skaven units look..

The blurb under the pic says there are 5 variations of Vermin Lord to build..

At the end of the day, daemons are daemons. Which means they will choose whatever form they see fit. As will any Skaven hobbyists out there if they buy one or the other.

Yeah that was my point haha. I'm guessing that means there'll be 5 head options.

I dig it, can't wait to see the other versions, and what else the Skaven get. Not really a fan of Skaven, but I'm genuinely excited to see what else GW has in store for them!
