It's probably just another Beastman rune representing Chaos... I'm sure there's nothing to worry about!
Man I'm just learning about skaven and there's more stuff about WH that seems awesome? :D
Eh, the beastmen are usually pretty uncomplicated. They are spawned by chaos, they fight everything they come across, eat everything, raid and pillage.
They're more of a primal force. A perversion of man and nature alike, dancing and cavorting around a bonfire in bacchanal rites, embracing their inner beast and even trying to draw it out in others. They aren't inherently as interesting as a race like the Skaven, but they act as personifications of various forces both natural and unnatural. It takes effort (and a great artist helps) to make them compelling.
No I get it. Kind of like what people do to other monster races to draw them out.
And chaos isn't -inherently- bad... unless it is in the setting. XD

Yeah, like gnolls in D&D. They're mostly treated as fodder but can be interesting if you flesh them out. As for Chaos in the Warhammer setting... it shows favouritism towards humans over it's own furry spawn. Which in turn makes the Beastmen feel even more cheated and angry.
Insert footage here of satyrs, minotaurs and centaurs looking on grumpy and jealous while the Chaos gods lavish humanity with their attention. xD
Then the humans have the audacity to try and fell their forests and take their land too. Warhammer just wouldn't be Warhammer without extreme racial angst!

Part of why I'm still learning about it.
So far it seems WH is basically 'everyone is a dick somehow' The Game.
Explains why you gotta buy pieces instead of books... XD

It does make a wonderful setting though. I'm hoping to get some pieces in the future that will show off the more corrupting nature of Chaos and it's potential for transformation in those touched by it.
This is pretty great work, Zepto! You did an amazing job with this beastmen shaman~
More cannon fodder for the Chamonite armies, huh? It seems everyone chooses the realm of metal nowadays... Nice piece, though I wouldn't be able to tell this is a beastmen, or even from Warhammer due to the yellow sign.
