The clan Vector planning is turning out pretty good, still making the schedule! And Why should'nt I? It's one freakin' month until I'll get the box in my hands and can start the project.
So I was watching the film "V for Vendetta" the other night and went fascinated by the character V's logo.
Suddenly I realized: That is going to be my symbol for Clan Vector.
My symbol for the clan. |
The 40 clanrats in the box
So, I'm going to paint all the clanrats in a light red colour with shining light silver armour.
I guess not many skavens army are painted light :P
Undercoat: Skull White Primer
Basecoat: 1:1 mix of Skulle White and Blood Red
Layer 1: Blood Red
Highlight: A brighter layer of blood red.
I'm hoping that the basecoat will give a good cover when I'm painting with blood red.
This is what I'm thinking on doin' right now, the way I'm thinking might change when I'll get the miniatures but the orginal painting scheme of red will live on!
I will also make conversions, so every single model will look unique (hopefully)
Some will have shields on their backs or heads on their spear or whatever I can find in my box of bitz.
Unfortunately all the miniatures in the box are almost assembled then you buy them, so that makes conversions harder but I'll give it a shot.
In the next post I'll tell you about some other miniatures in the box and what I'm planning to do.
Take Care

Very cool idea! Absolutely love the 'V for Vandetta' logo idea, it'll work great with the Skaven from the boxed set :) Can't wait to see some more posts, bring on the release!
