Hello there.
First time posting here, so to kick it off, I've decided to share my necrons with the rest of the forum. Been collecting these for almost 10 years, and have been painted and repainted more times than I could count. I think I'm finally happy with the paint scheme, painting technique and photo taking skills (the latter took the longest ). Without further ado, introducing my Destroyer Lord, heavily converted, from assorted Tomb Kings and Dark Eldar bitz. Hope you enjoy it, more pics of my necrons are yet to come. C&C welcome and appreciated, as always.

Really cool to see a different kind of Necron look, thanks for sharing!
As for C&C, I'd like to see a front view taken from a lower angle

Thanks for the feedback.
As requested, front lower angle of Destroyer Lord. And some Tomb Blades done too. Please keep in mind I'm seriously lacking in photo taking skills department, and my camera is ancient, and not very good at focusing. But I'm trying my best, so I got that going for me, which is nice.

nice colour choice and I bet a whole army of these would look super menacing and very distinct.

Moving on. C'tan (Shards of the) Deceiver and Nightbringer. Tried to make them fit into my colour scheme. After all, they are capricious beings, and can look whatever they feel like.

Forge World Canoptek Tomb Stalker. 95+ parts for a mechanical centipede. While a nightmare to build, a very fun model to paint. Made the base myself, using plaster and various other stuff.

Necron Monolith. Took me sweet time to get it done, but it was well worth it. My very first attempt at OSL effect.

Hi. We roll 40k in Belgrade. You can learn more on our facebook page : https://www.facebook.com/KlubLjubiteljaEpskeINaucneFantastikeZmaj/?fref=ts
or our own forum : http://forum.klubzmaj.org/
Next on the list, some more vehicles. Ghost Ark and Catacomb Command Barge. Light is a bit off on these photos, so colour might seem "weird" here and there.

Truly impressive! The one gripe I'd have would be the fact that the C'Tan have the same colors as the Necrons. ...I really don't think that's a thing.

Thanks.
C'tan used to be gods of unimaginable power, bending the laws of nature and physics to their whim, and could assume the appearances of whatever or whoever they felt like. In 3rd edition Necrons codex, a painting tip suggests you can paint C'tan in whatever colours you feel like, because of their capriciousness.
However, 5th/6th edition codex retconned that ; now they are hideously powerful enslaved Pokemon, so I found it fitting they are "forced" to carry the army colours. They still voice their dissatisfaction and dissent by using random powers every turn.

A trio of heavy destroyers, part of Destroyer Cult formation. Now they can finally take a beating, and dish it out.

Imotekh the Stormlord. Because it would be silly not to include your de-facto faction leader in your collection.

Illuminor Szeras. A rather unique model, with a very cool backstory. I'll have to field him these days, now that he is painted.

High quality work; but the red and green are very offputting to me. Just my opinion, but I'm not a fan of the color scheme.

Thanks for feedback. Working on Night Scythe atm.
As for "x-mas nercons" remarks ; where I come from, red and green are not associated with Christmas.
