Ishoo Sixty-Fiv: Skavenmass Baubles

Ah, Skavenmass, that sinsiter mid winter festival in honour of the horned rat, when the loathsome rat-men and their vile-kin lay put their fearsome weapons to better use - decorating their warrens in honour of their terrible god! The deep tunnels of the under empire are lit by gentle elf-fat candles, giving a rosy glow to the numerous brass orbs, poisoned wind globes and brimstone baubles which hang from warp-threads stretched across the tunnels. All is peace and harmony and good will to anything which you can't backstab.
And here's how to recreate this most unusual of skaven festivals in the comfort of your own home!
Take it away, Skveek!










And there you are! Skavenmass Baubles fit for the council of thirteen!
Other good Skavenmass Bauble decorating materials include rivets (just shove them in, pointy end first - they make the bauble look like an old fashioned mine!), various sizes of eyelet, and plenty of cardboard strips and shapes. It's pretty easy to cut skaven runes from cardboard and glue them on too.
Well, that's about it for this ishoo, but I here tremendous sounds of righteous fury emanating from Hel Pit...
See you next time!

  3. I thought the name for the recognised Skaven holiday was Vermintide. Kinda like Yuletide only more verminous...

    1. Vermintide is the one the foolish man-things know about. The one the skaven put out there to lull them into a false sense of security. The real deal is Skavenmas.
