Hello everyone, GuassGuy here, gonna start working on my 1500 pt list that I made up and started buying models for. Ill have the list posted here shortly as well as what I have purchased. The intention of this log is to keep me motivated and have, well as you may have guessed, a fully painted army that I would like to expand upon. Without further ado the list of models!! Oh another thing there will be 0 GREEN rods in my army. I dislike them that is all.

Without further ado:

All comments and Criticism welcome. I also will have photos up of warriors in progress later today.

Very cool paintjob!It has a very ancient look to it all. Nice base as well. Looking forward to the rest of the army!

Thank you Dr. Temujin as I mentioned the warriors will be up as soon as I get my new desk together. I plan on doing the two ghost arks and one doomsday ark all at once, Build, prime, paint, pull hair out.

What can I say... it's a flawless paintjob, just keep on doing what you're doing! It doesn't matter if the foot troops aren't up to the same standard as this guy.

Be sure to put a link to this blog in your signature!

*edited to correct a spelling mistake.

Thank you, I will definitely put a sig together for this Work blog. I was wondering, for the scarab swarms, can I model just three on a base? that way I can get more scarab bases together from the warrior sprues.

Got some necron updates for everyone. Here are some work in progress warriors.

Quick update. I mentioned that I was not going to use green rods at all so out of the box of deathmarks I found myself with left over gauss blasters...... To what maniacal end have I achieved? See for yourself.

Alright got a major warrior update, steps away from being complete, Let me know what you think. Criticism and comments welcome

Edit: Edited for picture description

Such little activity makes GuassGuy a sad....Necropanda. I HAS AN UPDATE I worked on the power source on the weapons over the last few hours. The weapons are almost complete, then I just gotta pull them off the bases, do the bases, put them back on, and seal them...soon as I buy sealer. Anyway here you go. Comments and criticism welcome.

Sooo warriors are still in progress but for those that are following here is a peek at what I have coming up in the works. What do you think I should work on next? Most votes is next on the project list.

Nice Necrons. Luckily for you that some people posted on your blog, mine currently stands at 0 other user replies. Though I know why that is. XD

Also have fun with your new toys, some of em look a pain to paint which is why I don't have em haha.

your lord has a very similar pose to mine!

real nice colour scheme, I'm also using light blue for my power sources!

The lord is the Annihilation barge lord fyi. Thanks for the kind words. I totally wanted to get away from green. I am also not having green rods anywhere at all on my army.

Interesting what you did with the Warrior squads. When you said no green rods, I thought "So... he's just going to put blue rods on, then?" Personally, I still like the old green rods, but I suppose that's me and not you, necessarily.
*Low whistle* that's alot of toys you have amassed there. My vote is to start up on the Annihilation/Command Barge first.
Keep up the good work!

I really like that Guass flayer idea I might have to steal that, thanks for sharing, keep up the good work

I know that, but you've assembled him very close to the way I did

I understand, Its a very nice model. When I get my second annihilation barge I plan on using it to make a destroyer lord.

I feel you on the lack of comments. Took a while before I started getting comments on my work as well.

Anyhow, nice work so far. Looking forward to seeing what you do going forward. The new Necron range is fantastic.

I may have a complete warrior to post up in a bit. just finishing a few things. Anyone think I should give the warriors glowy eyes? Thanks wolfshadow for the words and yeah like I said. sad Necropanda

UPDATE: One complete warrior, sans glowing eyes, and some sort of flying base.....hmm could it be for my Anni barge? Stay tuned to find out.

"Is that all that has awoken" Overlord Munakhmet ( Mu-knock-met) of the Dosemndekht (Doe-sem-deckt) dynasty thought to himself... "I must attempt to increase the progress of the awakening if I am to save this crypt from those foul....Imperial fists as they call themselves...." with that Munakhmet withdrew to his inner chambers in hopes of converting other power sources to speed up the awakening of his most loyal servants and their engines of destruction.


Alright cranked out the first squad of my Dynasty! Here ya go. Comments and criticism more then welcome.

I apologize if my photo taking is terrible at the moment. I plan on constructing a decent light box as soon as I have the means too.

Incredible progress, Gauss! Excellent work all around!

I love the blue, its much nicer thatn the standard green rod. Its a pity that GW don't give the option of different colour rods.

Looks pretty good. I like your Gauss conversions.

Thanks cosmic, I can not wait to get my Anni barge started sadly work is busy busy. Though I do have days off coming up and that should see a lot of progress on the barge.

I agree, however it is not so much an issue to paint them your own color or acquire from another source. However I would have enjoyed having it come straight from games workshop

Thank you, I just hated the green rods plain and simple haha.

I just put together a 500 pt list to get me started playing games or I am gonna freak hahah. do you think this List will do well?

HQ:
Overlord
warscythe
rez orb

Troops
5x warriors
5xWarriors
5x immortals with tesla

Fast attack:
4x scarab bases

Heavy support:
Annihilation barge
Total: 495

Any insights on what anyone would change with my 500pt list?
