Great idea. Seen Mantics Vermyn might be useful for some bits & bobs.

The troops and warlock are from irregulars 6mm range, with added green stuff pipes, plastic rod/card back packs and shields and staffs.
The square based minor rats are also from irregular (I have plenty from my 6mm skaven army)

The giant cyber rat is a GW skaven rat, from the plague monks kit.

The giant mutant rats with flamers are from Pendrakens 10mm range, as are the giant mutant rats on the circular bases. (some brilliant stuff they have for epic monsters)

The human slaves are from the baccus Napoleonic range, sappers and trenchers.

Indeed, its the one thing I have waited on from GW since I first discovered 40k but they have never delivered. I was going to go with space skaven as the title, but I already have Space orcs! ;D

Thanks Draccan! More will come, but slowly, its taken since the new year to get this lot painted!

Thanks LH! The mantics vermyn dont have a very big range last time I checked, just a few troops, but when they finally get on to getting their warpath kickstarter I will def be keeping an eye on them then!

Nice!!! Great campaign setting, as well :D


Thanks Rastamann, I wanted to carve my own piece of the 40k universe together and have it contain all my armies, that way I could really go to town on fluff and pictures (its a fun way to finally learn myself some photoshop- well, gimp actually, but same difference!) A self contained solar system consisting of a planet purged from imperium records allow me to fluff away but with out (hopefully!) offending some of the more hardcore 40k fluff-o-philes that will want everything GW sanctioned. I was angry at GW for a lot of things as of late, but Ive come to accept the fact I don't need them to enjoy the universe of 40k I have built in my head since I was a child! I love the setting but I don't need to be forced feed every little story GW charges for! ;)

It would be a GW Forgefiend (Shudder!) I thought it was a load of tosh when they first brought it out, but one day I was looking for a titan sized rat faced entity and I spotted one of them built with out the stupid tongue poking out! Its face just screamed rodent and that firepower was too good to pass up! Cost wise, I thought it no more then what a exodus wars titan cost, but with out the need to vermin-fie the titan! So I grabbed one. Quite enjoyable to build even if the directions in the box are some what not very good!

I intend to build it up on a base built like a highway with some added rat engineers working on it. I want to add some old school banners under the guns, much like the old school imperium ones from the old GW titans.

I'm thinking of adding some of troublemaker games Beast class transport as a heavy troop transport as they are brilliant minis and I don't think I will be getting much more of their Skinner stuff, so It be nice to have a use for them!

Thanks for all the comments, Ive been pretty ill as of late so Its nice to have been able to work on them at last and finally have something to show off. I'm not the greatest painter, but I do enjoy it and its nice for people to take an interest, even if they are not the same top quality usually shown on these boards.

Nice looking stuff. I always envisaged space ratmen being like the warped opposites of squats. Sort of mad scientist engineers. With no boundaries, the universe is your oyster for creating weird and wonderful machinery for them.

Fantastic idea!

Personally very surprised about the sculpting quality of Irregulars not-Skaven!
They do look great!

Will keep an eye on this blog! :)
