Well, I thought I had quit, but just when I thought I was out... they pull me back in.



I've had this Necron Lord, or possibly Overlord, on my desk pretty much since the kit was released. See, I don't paint the models anymore, and I haven't played in forever, but boy I sure do still buy them sometimes. Although less so now.



In repainting this guy, I discovered 2 things. One, my painting skills have degraded considerably, and I wasn't that great to begin with. It's definitely not like riding a bike. Two, a bunch of my paint went bad :( I've ordered some new stuff in case "actually getting stuff painted again" becomes a thing (it won't probably).


If it does, though, you would not believe how many Necron characters alone I have in the queue. Here are all the ones I've done so far, though, if you want a gander.

Wow. If you count that as your painting skill as having degraded, then you must have a pretty damn good standard.

I really like the horns you put on the necron lord rather than the usual phaeron/Overlord crown they have, it gives it a lot more character and fits with the style of scythe he has.

Looks good man!

They look good, Ouze.

That's a lovely piece of work.

The new Overlord model is really well done, and yours does it true justice! The head conversion is super cool, and him towering over a fallen marine makes him extra BA!

Solid return. Hopefully it is an actual return and not just a heat of the moment thing.
