Hey! Finally I finished rust part on scythes. Here we have second layer. I used here Valleho Air Rust. This is the final layer - fiery orange mixed with rust. Please note that photo is too bright. Final effect on all vehicles: Brovatar finished modelling bases, Im gonna do them fully magnetized to make them easier to transport. There is also a spot for a model to show embarked unit. Now I need to find cool colour scheme for those desert bases. Any ideas guys? PS. If you would like to see more and want to show support please follow us on Facebook and our BLOG.

Well i collect Epic necrons and made a lot of terrain pieces for them, all are in the desert. For the colour i used GW sand and Agrax Earthshade light wash with water, turns out like a war-torn desert landscape that cannot support life - perfect for Necron fluff!

dunno how many fliers in there cant recall but if those will be placed on valkyria sized bases than with time it will be getting hard to manouver navigate them due to the sheer size and obligatory 18 movement albeit this is mean as skyfire is not common

Yeah one of the best things here is the lack of lots of Skyfire weapons. Only issues are the quality and quantity of the soldiers fielded.

Hey! I didn't take pics of all steps but hope to make it clear. I did all the sponge steps on Catacomb Command Barge. Then covered it with Worn Effects Acrylic Fluid using airbrush. After that I sprayed whole model with GW Skull White. Then using brush I wetted parts of the model - which I scratched using toothpicks, brushes and hobby knife. Next I'm gonna make metallic parts and use Rust Wash to make it more realistic. There are gonna be sandy and black pigments, green OSL etc... much work ahead of me. PS.

Nice idea but i'd try to limit the effects to fewer spots...
And i strongly belive you should first shade it or paint everything else...
But otherwise COOL!

Hey! I have finally finished bases. Really like those scarabs - wish I had more to put. Special thanks to Brovatar for modelling and sculpting. Those are magnetized - both the place for Scythe and embarked unit. Below some WIPs, Warriors and Blades still need a lot of work. Weapons for Scythes are almost done - some washes here and there and a little highlight and should look awesome Next update should be about Scythes. At the end of the project I'll definitely make better photos of the whole army. PS. If you would like to see more and want to show support please follow us on Facebook and our BLOG.

Agrax Earthshade would be great on all those white models, tried on my Deathwind Terminators and they look great!

Hey! Here are some new WIPs of Scythes. Its a stage just before green OSL and glueing weaponery. I've added Black and Rust Wash and used black pigment on the engine exausts and Sand Pigments everywhere to make them look like they were just risen from the desert. PS.

Hey! That was a busy week. I finished the army and attended the first major 6th edition national tournament - 3City Heresy in Gdansk, Poland. Army has won the "Players Choice" award and finished on 6th place (similar roster was first - it probably had better general:) ) Scythes have really attracted attention. Those guys were praying for their transport to survive At the end they've held some objectives and almost never have died. It was my first tournament using Necrons and I never really had a chance to face Overlord with my Space Wolves but holy cow he is OP With mindshackles, 2+/3+ and Warscythe - no one could match him (except other Lords ) Who cares about them? 20 points, no value, no firepower etc. Super fast denial unit that's what those guys are - real pain to deal with them And another look on bases. People said those are cool - especially the "embarked unit" spot and magnetized sticks for easier transport. Finally whole army is on ebay now - cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170903294421#ht_6264wt_1397. Time for new project! PS.
