![]() ![]() Their small brains are as such devoted singularly to the pursuit of fighting, tearing and simply enacting wanton bloodshed. Their unlikely genesis has left them utterly dependent upon their creators for any kind of mental faculty and they are literally incapable of functioning without the direction of another's will. While Clan Moulder certainly succeeded in creating deadly war beasts, Rat Ogres are arguably flawed creatures, bereft of reason and nearly devoid of sanity. ![]() Though many would be mistaken otherwise, Rat Ogres are not a separate breed of the Skaven race, rather Rat Ogres are creatures born from the fusion of crossbreeding different types of horrific creatures with Skaven blood, and surgically augmenting what is left. Rat Ogres are massive hulking monstrosities that represent the very pinnacle of Clan Moulder ingenuity, a lethal killing-machine beast that combines the inhumane reflexes of a Skaven with the brawn and size of an Ogre. Steffan Paulus Adelhof, Scholar of Wolfenburg ![]() If left to their own devices, however, they are just as likely to feed on nearby offal as to kill the Skaven or their enemies." When driven by Moulder’s Packmasters, Rat Ogres are effective weapons of war. Bred in the pits of the Master Moulders, no two Rat Ogres are the same, yet they share enough similarities to be easily identified. I have seen but one in my travels and it is a memory that I hide even from myself. I wanted to use both for variety until I saw how different they looked, leading me to end up using a huge amount of green stuff to bulk up my crypt horror one to match the others." Not truly Skaven, the Rat Ogres, but they are aberrations nonetheless. For that reason I don't suggest mixing model types, and instead just picking one. Word of warning though is that the stormfiends are way bigger than the crypt horrors that many use-not in height, but in musculature, so they won't really look like the same type of model. I'll be doing at least 1 more with the stormfiend chassis in finishing my first 5. If you're comfortable with that, or have other ideas for what to put on the back I suggest you go for it! They do look really cool in the end. ![]() I'll warn you it took me quite a bit of work with an xacto knife and sand paper to get all the fur patches off, and a fair amount of work with green stuff to make the backs presentable without the armor and little brain rat guy that is usually on the back of these models. Thank you so much! It is from a stormfiend chassis. ![]()
