Really different look you have there, they are visually striking with the nice usage of contrasing colors. At first I was likey "whoa" but I really like them. The blending work is quite nice and the weapons are a really different color but goes with the model. I really like the vehicles.

Each model takes around 7-8 hours, that's for a basic immortal, lord took almost twice that, and the vehicles, well I paint them in parts while painting the models, because they take a million years lol.

I think it is awesome that you are putting that amount of work into the troops as well as the H.Q. and vehicles.

Be great to see the whole army when finished.

Will be a very impressive sight on the table

Totally reminds me of Nards painting style. They look really cool. From a distance these are going to jump right off of the table.

That is another awesome Necron paint job that I've seen on Dakka. This one is hands down the most original. Love the way they look. You should be proud with that work.

I am sorry, I am not a fan of that painting style at all. Its to bright and unattractive. IMHO.

Not to take away from the paint job though. It looks like you did a good job painting them. Just not my style.

Especially the one HQ, the cape mixes with the model himself and looks like a blob of yellow and orange and red.

This one.


It just blends all together. would be better to dee the cape a different color.

Outstanding!!

The effect is visually stunning and I can imagine that with them on the table nobody is looking at the opposition! Almost hypnotising.

My one criticism (which is really more observation than criticism) is that because your vehicles and their operators are indentical colours and shades its a bit like looking for Wally That said this may be the effect you were after? But as I said its not really a criticism and in no way does the effect detract from the awesome overall effect.

Huge Fan!!!

I've tried to make living metal be magma, hence the identical pilots and barges, I guess fluff wise it would make sense, artistically I dont want to confuse the viewer, but initially trying multiple paint schemes seemed to be inconsistent at best, which is why I chose a very uniform scheme across the board.

I have updated my Necron lord's warscythe, I hated the original and chose to use my blue shceme on the blade, see what you think!


Two new Crypteks! I chose the illuminator as a cryptek, fluff wise he is one but he's a terrible HQ, so might as well right?








Two new immortals, Pincer and Captain America!








and a group shot of the new five! Up next, Varguard Obyron,
so stay tuned!

Astonishing !!

The overall work is nearly perfect. I would have changed the color scheme for the vehicles : something like a colder magma (more black, deep red, etc...)

Really interesting and cool army, only down side is the HQ robes blend in to much would IMHO looked better in a contrasting color so it would be set off. Immortals and vehicles are epic. Great job.

Technique is superb. Hue selection is also intelligent.
Uniqueness, and impact is high.

But to my taste, some of the colors (say, purple and blue) could be more dark and subdued for better contrast. It's a bit overwhelming otherwise.
