Skaven Clanrat Batch Painting Guide

This is the method that I've been using to paint close to 200 Clanrats. This guide is broken into 2 steps, first is the "standard" detail and second is "advanced" detail. I reserve the advanced detail usually only to command group models and characters, but if you have the time, the extra detail will really help your horde to stand out on the battlefield!

With a large amount of models I have multiple times decided to tackle each step simultaneously, as opposed to, say painting one rank at a time, such as 5-10 models. Experiment and see which method is more suitable for you.

Standard Detail
