Nice new avatar Vik!

Also, discovered that the "portal" has emitters i shall have to paint in tinbitz as well!

thanks mate... it was much needed now that the holidays are over...

sounds good... have you considered putting a light inside? soemthing like a battery powered tealight?

so many hassles of control involved.

hmmm... arguable... if you wanted...one could saw a fitting hole in the bottom...then it would be a mere matter of gluing in space...but i get your point... that would have been something done before assembly...

Exactly Vik, Had i one to do that with at the start, it would have been done as early as possible.

I still have to build that second ark as well.

build Shas, build.

Still working on rivetizing the OC minis.

Rivet Shas, Rivet!

I just riveted my ratskin's bases, The rivet force is strong tonight.

i see a pattern here dave... with your (for me) latest posts... a certain pattern with SW flavor is shaping up^^

I was actually NOT thinking of Star Wars with the Mauser, I was thinking of an Gestapo looking IG Officer in great coat, aiming a mauser at hip-level, in that movie-cool kind of way. I thought I could make the Mauser look 40k by adding the tell-tale lasgun flash suppressor on the barrel.

Star Wars is just a part of my OS, you can't separate it from my consciousness.

i try like hell to get rid of the second three movies... they were in essence ´orrible...

Me either Vik, But You can't fight it forever, they are part of it all now.

Oh so true. Now we see vader, the baddest mofo in movbies started as a whiny teenager.

yeah... i think that is what movies like twilight influenced... it really developed to such a crap thing due to such things...argh...emo star wars...

Having taken Viks' suggestion to heart regarding the back of the mono, here is what it looks like!

Now the front portal, at one angle it glows so much there is little detail.
[/img]

But now we get a more "water" effect like in Stargate SG-1
[/img]

[/img]

that backside truly looks way better now... the glowy effects there also are now way better to be seen...

also if shown like that i really like the portal there..

It is almost timke to finish the crystal and then move to the new ark.

looking forward to both!^^

Aye, they will be good.

Well, this helps get me closer to the finish of the monolith. The jewel for the main power supply.

I love how with just the right paint the flash makes the thing glow like it has a fire within
[/img]


Set into the top.
[/img]

the portal again
[/img]

both door and crystal
[/img]

All aglow! this just supports my nickname of the Toxi-Crons
[/img]

avert thy eyes....argh...

cool shine!

A very toxic shine eh? And all just tricks of the light reflecting off that paint I placed inside the halves of the "crystal" before sealing it. Light hits, bounces off, and back out of the crystal and voila~! Nuclear toxic glow!

the glow reminds me of the camera trick you got in old B&W movies when the main actress came into a full headshot view... always so glowy and foggy at the same time^^

well quite fitting then^^

So, now we see the full realization of the radiation imbued "toxi-crons!"

Very cool Shas! Love the crystally-glowy goodness!

Fluff-wise, do those things work like mobile webways? Warping in troops and such from crypt-planets?

Thank you, thank you!

More like the Stargates like in SGU/SG-1/Atlantis, long range, and basically carried on the Monolith and the Night-Scythe, Can';t wait till those come out, fast as DE transports for that last minute move to get close to the target, and next turn(provided the enemy didn't kill them) the troops come out to seize the objectives.


except in place of that big middle gun, a portal

Very Protoss-esque- cool!

New Necrons will be able to take advantage of newly released tech of the codex, and show deviousness if played right.

Okay, been some time since an update for these Necrons. First up, the Deathmarks, finally getting their greening, this is just the first layer of their metallic colors.

Not to be upstaged by the aloof killers of the High Phaeron, the Triarch Praetorians have also received their first step past priming, such glowing personality don't you think?

That last is a 10man jump-assault unit. Hopefully, their shooting attack leaves something for them to fight, or they best run to cover

actually that dark and with these small spaces done in the green, they look very menacing...

and yeppers... it has been quite long for any near as dead robots to turn up^^

by the way... that update of yours somehow escaped me up until now...^^

Sneaky Toxi-crons!

yep... that is soemthing to be mused over by the inquisition... i have called mikhael right now...^^

Viktor von Domm wrote:yep... that is soemthing to be mused over by the inquisition... i have called mikhael right now...^^

Yet,by the time he answers, they may be all disappeared!

dang...but you know...nobody expects the inquisition...so they might be just fast enough...also the lurching scrapmetal is not renowned for their speed^^

New codex gives us zippier ships and transports and that phase-away when they can't fix is still spooky

well...^^

Necrons got an overhaul!

now what you don´t say...^^

Well, they are still low in HtH as they are initiative of 2.

that will be fixed^^

But plenty of power weapons for the survivors to play with.

hey mate... was surfing through ebay... might this be something for you to built from? they do have a necrovibe on them...besides something from the doc might interest you too?^^

Ah yes, the Cyber-men, I think they based the now gone "Pariahs" from them.

Gotta get these bots out and fight test them!

aye... long overdue anyways^^... anything new on the necron painting front?

Been quiet there, but soon.

we will be waiting...

Well, time to build the second ark and then see if I can make and test a list for this night.

The ribs are al done, now for that drive/bridge section!

at first i thought you are talking about a BBQ^^

Only if I win the test battle

aha...^^ then celebrating will happen in form of cooked and burned domestic animals^^

Well, no battle Wednesday, so maybe I will have some luck this sunday.

why did it not happen ,mate? no one wanted to battle toxicrons?

Viktor von Domm wrote:why did it not happen ,mate? no one wanted to battle toxicrons?

They were playing a board game instead! I will try again for a Sunday game, have to work out the costs in points for a nice 2k sized forced! Muwahahahahaha!

ohoh.... he is lost to the effect of toxicrons now...

Soon the Crypts will open, and the host of the Dynasty shall sorty to see about asserting their dominion over all!

well...then we all better duck and cover^^

lol...

But the Superbowl Sunday is over and i can look forwards to trying again Wednesday.

yep only 364 days till the next one left^^

Well, still gotta see if I can make Crons work well or not.
