Love the way you magnetised the thingee. Great work!

Yours may be my favorite Necron army that i have seen. Tell me bad-sam, what do you do to weather your metals. I would love it if you posted a tutorial. I am working on a deathgaurd army but it would be cool to include some really dirty iron warriors with my main force.

The restricted range of colors you chose is very powerful.

The grit/weathering adds a lot of depth and character.


I think a lot of people are trying too hard to do too much with the Necron models as far as paint scheme, etc..

If it isn't broken don't fix it, and you have taken the basic canon look and elevated it to the next level

Yeah, i agree CT gamer. i am always a big fan of the more weathered lookin necron models, but i would love to see a tutorial on how he does the wicked weathered metal look. gotta say i really like his crons.

Thank you for you kind words.

Looks like i have to get some more Necros for that weathering tutorial


-Bad-Sam-

I am SO WAITING to see the tutorial. This site is going to register an upsurge in activity because i am going to just leave browsers open to Dakka eveywhere i go till you upload the goods on the technique. I loved the weathering and the fact that you have necron glyphs barely visible under the layers of what look like a varnish or glaze that has built up naturally over time.
Keep up the good work. i really like your army. NICE without being to over the top. Jobs a good un.

I loved how you did the orbs on the Monoliths so they don't have strange guns breaking up their nice lines.

I am looking forward to seeing BadSam's take on some of the wave 2 stuff.

Specificly a Doom Scythe or two...

Love the Monoliths. Nice job.

Look great keep up the good work !

As you wish sir

Tomb Blades should be ready by tomorrow.

I was waiting Necrons 2nd wave for that tutorial and now that its here i have no excuse to postpone it
There should be few scythes waiting for me in my local GW store.

Stay tuned


-Bad-Sam-

Holy macaroni Batman. It's Tomb Blade!

Here is my take on Necrons 2nd wave. Tomb Blades were fun to assemble and paint.
I was going to magnetize those guns, but when i realized that my mags are all but gone i just
glued the Particle Projectors on. S6 small blast is good enought for me.





I had to add that statue piece on one of those bases so it would not fall all the time.



Stay tuned for more wonders of the Tomb Worlds!

Next Doom/Night Scythe (with 7 color can painting tutorial!)

And finished Doom Scythe. I very happy with the outcome. Metals look as they should.

Its too big for my forest background


So huge, shiny and deadly.


Closeup on that Living Metal and unliving Necron Glow!


The Badboy. I say ZAAAP! you say AAARGH!. Oh yeah!



Stay tuned!

Night Scythe

Yesterday i realized that i didnt build those Wormhole teleporters for Night scythes.
I was so exited about those deathrays that it slipped from my mind totally. Oh well here
they are now.

These have been magnetized also.



Two squads of Necron warriors deep striking in the hearth of bombarded city.



Stay tuned


-Bad-Sam-

oh my.......
does want....
has no other words....

These are without a doubt the best Necrons I have ever seen. I'll be using parts of your technique for my legions, but it won't look nearly as awesome as yours. Keep up the incredible work!

I have enjoyed two necron armies I have ever seen. This is one of them

I, too, am curious about your weathering effects for your Necrons.

Project C'Tan is ready. Im pretty happy about it.
Lets see how it performs when 6th edition hits us






Muahahahahahaaa!


Making of C'tan #2 --> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/456826.page

Quick size comparison. Now we know why Bjorn wants wear that flag...




-Bad-Sam-

Poor Bjorn, without that flag he'd look like a ....dare I say it....DWARF!!!


Proof that Dreds are designed by Squats.

Nice conversion Sam

Awesome C'Tan model! I admit, it was a bit difficult for me to see the Eldar being ripped in half, maybe if you used different colors for him (or I'm suddenly color-blind or something) he would be more distinct. Anyways, great job!

Hello again,

Here are the newest additions to my Necron army

Nemesor Zahdrekh. I swapped his hand with one with Resurection Orb (so i will remember that he got one....)


Vargard Obyron. This is one menacing looking mini. "Touch my master and ill kill you"


Together forever ( <3 )

That white armor looks pretty ok. It differs little from rest of the army, but they are very special chracters


Illuminor Szeras


This one was nasty to glue to together. That ripped off head is really cool IMO
Hes like mental dentist.



New bad boys on the block. I think ill get full wraithwing. These will rip through anything. ANYTHING!


And they are way bigger now .

Necron style Quad-Gun.


I just had to do it. I only need idea for that Aegis wall.


Thats all for now.

Stay tuned tho!


-Bad-Sam-

Very nice man! I have a Necron Aegis Defense Line in the works. I think some thin mesh might work as an energy shield and then add some generators or something.

Good idea.

What's in that gun? I can see two of the Stalker TL HGCs & a shield, but is there anything else?

Actually there is 4 Gauss Cannons, Dispersion shield, 2 alternate nose pieces of Catacomb Command Barge
and one nose piece of Ghost Ark plus some smaller parts from Tomb Blade kit

-Bad-Sam-

Thanks, might have to steal that design

"all your bases are belong to us" must be a Starcraft fan, put together with a awesome Necron army an I'm in love with this blog

Love it. The Necron writting is especially effective.
