YUP necron nids.

Since I started I have been painting and expanding my salamander army. The bigger the better, but now I want to expand to other forms of armies, just to expand my strategies and if someone comes over and wants to play I can loan them the SM.

My first thought was necrons, I love their models and the monolith is just awesome...

My second thought was that tyranids are getting a new codex in january... that means they will just as new and powerful as space wolves are now. WITH NEW UNITS!

My third and now final thought was... metal painted tyranids.... no..... NECRON NIDS


here is how the paint scheme and modeling will go.

I will keep the tyranid models the same for now, until I have other ideas

The colors though will be same as those from the Necron Home world kronus

Skin: Boltgun
Carapace: A darker Boltgun metal
Claws: A combination of green and light geen to create that glow stick effect
Eyes: Red, like terminators or just black.

For special units:

Lictors: Same
Hive Tyrant: Make the jaw gold
Genestrealers: same as flesh rippers
Zoanthrope: Add the green maze idea from computer chips on the carapace, to represent its breaking from its robotic shell to control the data stream
here is an example:

For any veins or such... I would vary between units depending on who they are... larger models get green veins and smaller units just stick with boltgun metal

PROJECT 2

A cryogenectially frozen piece of flesh from Abraham Lincoln was found on Terra. The piece was then healed and modified by science to re grow the main body and mind of the owner. Abraham at first was amazed by this world, but adapted quickly and now he is a Inquistor Lord for the inquistion to keep this divided house from falling.

Model: Inquistor lord basic model, butt will add a beard and huge top hat.

This is will be fun.

PROJECT 3

ITS A TRAP!

Thats right, sergent Telion is the new space marine admial ackbar

Model: I will Keep the sergent telion model, but will try to remove the cloak and see if I can add a head in the color and shape of Admiral Ackbar.

Maybe if I finish all these models I will add some cereal on Admiral Achbars base, touch up the necronids, and make a Daemon hunter army based on the 300 spartans.

Best of luck with these.

I intend to make my own version of project 3 at some point, so do let me know how yours turns out!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/259665/1023219.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/259665/1023219.page GMT Re:3 projects: Necronids (new codex) Abraham Lincoln (Inquistor Lord) Admiral Ackbar (Sergent Telion)
As the model choice, it was between a converted sergent telion for my salamanders, a daemon hunters landraider with him on top "Our Landraider Can't Repel Fire Of That Magnitude!", or just making him a chapter master that I would barely use.

BTW great job on those star wars figures. SO AMAZING!

If you wanted to make an entire out those hoth figures I would make them imperial guard and keep luke skywalker as a space marine ally.

Tanks could would be tougher unfortuanetly...


If anyone really wanted a star wars themed army... putting the empire scheme with IG would be the best ever.

Sentinels.... duh
Cadians.... Storm troopers
Commissar.... maybe that guy that gets choked (you could have him floating even )
HQ.... Vader with his arm streched out choking the commissar
Tanks.... ATT Walkers

You could even model your shadow storm apocaypse tank into a death star.
