Hello everyone,

I recently started painting necrons and the troops are coming along nicely in my opinion for a person with my experience but the time is coming that i have to start painting vehicles. I started painting a spider first but once i started the edge highlighting i was not pleased by it. Does anybody have any tips edge highlighting in general or green on black for necron models? I might be using a bad brush or have to put less paint on it.

Regarding the ghost ark i have a couple of questions. The ghost ark is a rather large model and i would probably do a better job painting the pieces seperatly. But i wonder if i can still glue it together once it is painted. Does army painter/citadel glue still work on painted parts or does it make a smudge and not "melt" together. If that is the cause which other options do i have exept not painting the parts that are going to receive the glue. Thank you guys in advance for you input.

If you're having trouble with the brush try using a coloured pencil instead - trust me it works a treat.
I use those 'water-colour' type pencils which are quite soft.
You need to varnish between stages otherwise it just rubs off.

Also I've started taking photos to use as reference for weathering which can be found here. Please send me your photos so they can be found all in one place!!
