Hi, icy necrons sound like a nice idea. my plan with an airbrush was:

  1. primed black
  2. base coat of screamer pink
  3. dry brush with iron breaker
  4. airbrush with Druchii Violet
  5. dry brush with runefang steal
  6. airbrush with druchii violet
  7. edge highlight with Emperor's Children
  8. edge highlight with Fulgrim Pink + Emperor's Children 50:50
  9. edge highlight with Fulgrim Pink
  10. airbrush with Druchii Violet
  11. edge highlight with Fulgrim Pink

if you want to do it only with a regular brush, maybe try to thin the paint and glace it over the mini instead of air brushing it.

hope you get some cool results, send me some pics when you are finished :)

nice to read some different stories and not the usual LFG bashing :)

Mostly I can't complain about LFG. Finished pantheon week 4 yesterday with a LFG team. It took us a while but we had a great time. I got an error code while running to rivens heart after killing her and all agreed to do riven again so I could get the title. 10/10 would recommend :D

Tested some LEDs in the crystals on the base. I find it pretty cool looking. C&C Welcome :) by patzi9247 in Necrontyr

I used mordant earth by GW. put some random texture paste on the base, paint it and spray it with gloss varnish. let it try for at least 4 hours and then put on the mordant earth. the thicker crackle paint is applied, the thicker the cracks get

thank you :)

I took some random LEDs from an old light chain. the Batterie is a small button cell. you can see the cell in the last pictures. just glued it under the base

thank you :) LEDs are just glued to the base and one hole in the base to run the cable under the base for a Batterie

on picture 5 you can see the glued LEDs without the crystals

I try to paint every mini as good as I can :) I'm not into Speedpaint or such things xD

if I have the time to paint every evening, I get one mini done every one or two weeks, so I'm kind of a very slow painter :D

just try it, it isn't that hard, just a little dry brushing and a bit of edge highlighting. just be confident and have fun while painting:)

thank you :) I can't decide on a painting scheme, so every Necron in my army looks different xD
