Wow it has been a long time since I have posted anything, I started up my Necrons again with a new paint scheme. In total this whole bunch took me probably around 4-5 hours to paint.

The biggest thing with this army is to just get it all painted and ready for gaming. I didn't want to start playing more until I have a completely painted army and I am slow at painting so I just went with what I think is a nice tabletop standard.
I currently have 15 scarabs and plan on at least doubling that and picking up a couple more spyders. I am about halfway done with this army.

I give credit to this tutorial as I pretty much followed it step by step adding a couple steps of my own. http://mrleespaintingemporium.blogspot.com/2013/07/guest-tutorial-necrons.html

The pictures actually don't show how bright and vibrant the green is, which is a shame, as they really pop. Dayglow pigments are my new favorite thing right now.

I would love to hear what you think!

















Thanks for looking.

My god we've run out of gauss weapons.. QUICKLY, WIRE UP THE TORCHES, THEY'LL NEVER KNOW!

In my opinion, the glow is a bit OTT, but other than that those are some great models mate :3

Oh it is very OTT but that was the aim, especially for the warriors and scarabs. Thanks!

Also, is that the new Cracked Earth technical paint I see?
*Soul gets sucked out by GW*
Noooo!

No it is actually "Distress Crackle Paint" I recommend it as it seems pretty strong as they don't appear to be peeling. It also comes with more than the GW pot at about the same price.

Wow, that's a pretty ringing endorsement there for the new GW technicals. It's neat to see them all in one place like this.
