Hi all,

Rebuilding my skaven and I've hit a snag.
Ages ago I built my poisoned wind globadiers using the heads from spare skaven kits.

This time however I'm looking to build around 50 of them.
So sourcing the GW heads isn't an option.
I'm also not paying over £360 for 50 of the old metal ones lol.


Does anyone know a 3rd party that makes gas masked rat like heads please?



On top of that, also looking to source some steampunk style back packs for them aswell.
Rather than having to scratch build them all.


Any and all help is appreciated.

Thanks.

Micro Art studio used to sell Nezumi heads that had gasmask variands in the set. I have a couple myself. They appear to be OOP now so maybe ebay or another vendor who sells OOP bits would be your best bet for those.
You also could try Mantics Vermyn line from thier Deadzone and Dreadball lines.

Heh! I only need about six, and it's still an almost impossible ask. Perpetually out of stock at the usual bits sellers, at best. Starting to think I might have to fiddle about with some putty and various styrene rods.

Backpacks might be easier to kitbash from stormfiend and other bits. I'll have to have a sift through what I have.

I'm sooo, sooo sorry.

Might be easier to make a press mold over normal skaven heads
or sculpt and cast your own.


gas mask heads are popular.

Cheers guys and the nezumi heads were my first pick, before realising the were OOP unfortunately :(

The press mould however is a good shout and I missed that one.
May have to give it a go and see if I can pump a few out.
Either won't it won't be quick haha.
