My youngest daughter's teacher (an ex collegue off mine too) is a Blood Bowl player.
So instead of the usual candles/wine/pointless tat, I found him a second hand Blood Bowl team, and painted them up for him. These are the 2016 plastic Skaven, and I was quite impressed by them.

What, you've never noticed the similarity between the Horned Rat and the Watford logo?

Those are cracking, Will ! :-bd
Cheers - Phil :)
What a super present, he is bound to be one happy chappy. Lovely work on the rats. :)
Thanks guys, he sent me a message to the effect that he loved them today after I dropped them off (actual contents would set off all the filters here).
We can imagine.
End of year present from my daughter to same teacher, a Rat Ogre
This thing is huge! Think super-giant-bad-tempered rat, with spikes (basically the average rat that lives on Phil's barn on a normal day!)

I basically grade rats, from size 1 to size 4
Size 1......Just emerged from a nest.....Mouse size.....just.
Size 2......Small...a
bit bigger than a mouse.
Size 3.......Cannon fodder. :D
Size 4.......BIG sods.....though you don't often see
any of those.
(Then, on just a couple of occasions in the 18 odd years we've been here, I've seen a 'size 5'.......Those are HUGE :o :o........But nice big targets, though. :D
Cheers - Phil. ;)
Size 8 or 9?

I haven't got anything that would take that out. ;D ;D ;D
Cheers - Phil. :)
Double load buck and ball in both barrels might just do it Phil....
I was thinking more of an RPG, Ian. ;D ;D ;D
There have been piccies (which maybe have a 50/50 chance of being 'true'*) of absolutely s*dding ENORMOUS rats, that I've seen.......more like the size of a cat.
I'd class those as size 10. :o X_X :-SS
Cheers - Phil. :)
*Though I'd really doubt the veracity of the images that get shared online.
An extra rat with lots of extras, a squirrel (they're all the rage I hear) and a saurus type. all spares for my mate.
