Someone said I should post my Necron temple set here, so I thought I'd crosspost just the completed pictures here. The full project log is over here.

I'm compiling some of our "greatest hits" pieces into montage pictures for easy portfolio access, so I'll be dropping them here as well as I finish putting them together. It occurred to me that we have a lot of pictures that I've never shown here, so expect some new pieces as well.






And an old classic.




And another one, one my personal favorites that I'll be making a sequel to soon.




An urban set, one of many. Expect some big pictures of some new big urban projects soon.

My seven year old was mightily impressed with the Necron terrain.

I must agree with him, although my personal fave is the teeth monster thingy. Excellent stuff.

Hiya Nerdfest, How's it going? I really appreciate the kind words from you and everyone else, it's inspiring and I make sure to pass them along to whatever grunts actually managed to get out of bed to help with my projects. There's an opportunity to grab a piece going right now, here's a pic of what we have available at this moment, a pump station that I assembled from scratch and spare parts by myself, it took a lot longer than expected because of all the pipes and weathering. Also you can always check my profile for current auctions.

All the figures I use for models are from my way-back early days in the hobby, before bases were all the rage. I had a half dozen unfinished armies, then started getting into scenery and terrain more and more with the hopes of building the greatest table ever, then over time GW released new models for just about everything I was working on... even harlequins! Oh well. Some of our later figures I started paying a little more attention to, like my Necrons:



But my real mini-painting days are still ahead of me

All very impressive! I love the way you add backgrounds to the pics. Makes it look less like a model of a monolith and more like a monolith, if you take my meaning.

That necron tower is truly epic.

The desert terrain is awesome, including some of the most realistic sand I've ever seen (I appreciate your effort to apparently scale down the granularity of sand to match the mini scale), but does that get hard to play on?

I like the thing bursting from the ground. The maggot-spewer isn't really my style, but it's undeniably an excellently modeled piece.

Looks like that ruined tower is surfing in the sand (in a good way ).

How much of the sand is actually part of the models/terrain, if I may ask?

That's actually not sand,in fact no sand was used on these pieces. These pictures show two models with sand dunes sculpted and finished with various techniques to get the realistic appearance of sand. The photographs are not retouched or enhanced at all besides light adjustment, it just photographs realistically.

You were one of the fist threads I saw when I came to Dakka (Orky stuff) and ever since then I have continued to be blown away every time I see a project from you. To say I am impressed is like saying the ocean has some water in it.

ARGH the campers and Noob tubers always used to hide up there. I think i've worked out what inspired you with this piece lol.
Love the sand dunes how did you do them, are they just carved from high density foam?

EDIT: Didnt realise all the images were together woops. I will still keep it up though if that's Okay.
