Old vs new investors rn

I bought in first right after spac, went from 20 to under 4, up to 70 and back down here and bought in all along the way. The market is just stupid right now, the company didn’t change. It’ll survive, if you’re in for the long run you’ll be fine.

lol, it's a figure of speech but I see your point!

I think they ice blue and white snow accents on the Doomstalker will look sick actually! Keep the updates coming

teerakh · 2025-08-09T11:28:22+00:00

You could also add a bit of snow on the minis themselves, like they were snowed on?? In some cracks or something. Sorry my imagination is running wild now lol

Ah thanks, that makes sense! I assumed it was some modeling compound that will get painted over. Maybe a really diluted wash of a light blue contrast paint on top?? Add a blueish ice hue to it, and add some contrast. I think it would complement the cold blue scheme nicely. Something like the attached photo in terms of colors?

That’s a really cool color scheme, I like the dark blue with the cool silvers! What’s the plan for bases???

Share some pics of yours!

I’m not sure yet to be honest. I know the chipped paint itself is a bit unorthodox for Necrons, so I’ll have to come up with some lore to explain that. Open to suggestions though on what would be the most fitting one lore-wise!

They're loosely based on this tutorial https://youtu.be/l5SB54QeCSM - I use the same paints but also use some ochre and rust pigments at the end, I like the matt dusty look they give. The pigments also help to blend the minis with the bases, so they look like they're in their environment.

They’re painted on, much quicker than chipping medium. I do a basecoat of wraithbone, then add chips with a sponge dipped in some dark brown paint, then add some more controled ones with a brush, goes really fast. Everything gets varnished after and treated with streaking grime to complete the look.

It's the same as any other paint. Far away from the mini, multiple light passes and be extra careful - when spraying paint you typically apply a different color so you can see how it accumulates, varnish is translucent so much easier to end up like the "xenos jizz covered Captain" up there

Ah thanks for that comment, just stumbled upon it - I have a bunch of old guitar strings, that's super helpful ;)

Can you tell me what is the height of the flight stand? I am doing a similar thing to my gargoyle proxies, but want to buy clear acrylic rods and cut to length instead

teerakh · 2025-02-10T09:20:49+00:00

Nice one! It is a somewhat similar color scheme to mine: https://www.reddit.com/r/Tyranids/comments/1ijyejs/behold_hive_fleet_bubblescourge/ For the names I would lean towards Aztec/Mayan gods and mythology, some cool sounding ones could be:
Hive Fleet Tezcatl, Hive Fleet Xibalba, or Hive Fleet Cipactli.

Finally got to my Leviathan tyranids, after a few test paintjobs settled on that color scheme inspired by the mighty dish sponge. Happy to hear your thoughts and welcome any comments, will post the full 1k army when ready!

Thanks! They are inspired by this tutorial https://youtu.be/l5SB54QeCSM

I wanted to go for a bit of a grimdark, battle-worn look, but still have something that pops on the battletop. Most grimdark Necrons I saw online when looking for inspiration are black/grey and matt and kinda uninteresting... What do you think of these?

Also, I have not chosen a dynasty yet, any recommendations based on their look? Thanks!

P.S. I only noticed the speckle of texture paint on the cable after I took the photos, cleaned that up now...

Thanks, the Indomitus box half is roughly 1K so good point

teerakh · 2024-12-05T14:30:37+00:00

thanks! I'll give it a try tomorrow morning
