Leon:
Pretty much same like the glows of the rest of my army. Two shades of green (Goblin Green and Scorpid green) and white.
Start with Goblin Green to create darker glow then Scorpid green to lighten it up, 1/1 mixure of White and Scorpid Green
to light it more and finally white to create the hotestspot. Some use yellow for hotspot but i like white better.
Whole process fairly simple. Nemesors Resu orb is good example of that.

Against monoliths dark surface glow effect really shows.

Anyone else getting a "Matrix-esque" feel to this army? I mean the look of the metal and the green just give me thoughts of the machines in the "real world" of the Matrix films and the green system matrix coding. Really like it.

Despite individual feelings of the movies themselves, the artwork and scenary was well done, just as these mini's are very impressive in their own right.

Oh well just my thoughts, they look great, keep up the good work and let us know how the Necron vs Nids match went.

My "Matrix" necrons marches on!

Trazyn the Infinite!

His staff glows blue for being weapon of the Old Ones. All their weapons had blue glow. Doh!


Closer look. Those trinkets on his belt are nice detail to this awesome model.



Chromed cape (most likely stolen...)

"Hi there"






Ted has lost his staff.


Necron warmachines coming up so...

PEW PEW! "Die you fleshlings!"

Catacomb Command and Annihilation Barge. Both rail and Tesla destructor are magnetized.




With safety rail. So your overlord dont fall off and hurt his knee.



or with Tesla destructor for annihilation of those nasty Tyranid hordes.





Engines



What is better than one Barge? TWO barges!




Coming up the Ghost/Doomsday Ark so stay tuned.

This thread makes me want to resurrect my Necron Army. Sigh.

Lovely work as always. Can you give us some shots on HOW you're doing the magnetizing?

Thank you for you kind words.

Those magnets are well hidden under thin layer of green stuff, but basicly there are one
magnet in middle of Ark's hull and another about in same spot in both Doomsday Cannon and
those dead warriors pack. Just Click it in place.

There are 2+2 1mm mags in the barge (2 in the platform and 2 in that hand rail. Tesla Destructor stays on without)
Handrail is pretty thin so i added two pieces of Sprue under it and drilled holes for magnets.


I put one stronger 2.5mm mag in the Ark and 1mm mags on both Doomsday Cannon and Ghost Ark passangers.


I hope this helps.

also, the Tesla stays on? didn't look that steady to me.
