Warhammer 40k Project: Necrons in White from the Indomitus Box, Skorpekh Destroyer Cult

 Finally got finished my Skorpekh Destroyer Cults from the Indomitus Box. I also settled onto a basing scheme as well. 

I haven't had much luck on the table recently as I can never seem to make a charge to save myself! but really keen to see how it all shakes out in the new Codex in October. 

Bases Paint Scheme with GW paints:

- Base with Armageddon Dust

- Wash with Sepia Wash

- Drybrush with Screaming Skull

- Tufts to taste

Warhammer 40k Project: Necrons in White from the Indomitus Box, Overlord, Reanimator and Cryptothralls

More progress for my white Xbot Dynasty Necron army built from the Indomitus box contents. I was able to punch out a few more models over the last week or so. Having a lot of fun with the scheme but damn are the troops taking forever!

Warhammer 40k Project: Necrons in White and the Necron Plasmancer

Plugging away at the new Necron Indomitus box sets with my new white, black and green paint scheme. The plasmancer was super quick to paint and the new Games Workshop Necron themed paints have been awesome to use. 

Paint Guide is as follows

- Airbrush black

- Airbrush light grey with shading from top down, couple of light layers will make it white

- Seal with matte varnish (important for allowing contrast paints to runs smoothly over the base colour)

- Contrast white over entire model

- Drybrush White

- Contrast black for skeleton parts

- Contrast Tesseract Glow for all the green parts, one coat, smooth and left to dry with no runs

- Runelord brass with a wash of Cryptek armoushade and drybrushed with canoptic alloy

40K Project: Indomitus Necrons in Xbox Green!

Of course the hype for 9th edition got me bad and I have invested in a new Necron start up army from the boxed set of Indomitus. I wanted something bright and yet easy to paint in bulk as I was keen to flood the board with Necron Warrior squads with the new objective based scoring coming in with 9th edition missions. Believe it or not a white armoured force was super easy to commit to with the release of all the new contrast paints.

Paint guide:

- Airbrush black

- Airbrush light grey with shading from top down

- Seal with matte varnish

- Contrast white over entire model

- Drybrush White

- Contrast black for skeleton parts

- Contrast Tesseract Glow for all the green parts

- Runelord Brass on the detail with a wash of Cryptek Armourshade

40k and 30k Projects: Dark Angels on the Horizon WIP

With the incoming new Horus Heresy Thramas campaign coming and having already done a Night Lords army years ago it feels the best time to start up a side project of Dark Angels. The biggest question is of course how to do the black for the old Heresy style armor!

I decided on a dark silky midnight blue for the "black" of the armor. This contrasting with the red stripes and eventual checks/transfers on the armor should pop well. The deep dark blue was achieved in the following steps:

- Undercoat black with airbrush primer

- Airbrush heavy zenith highlight with dark grey

- Airbrush light zenith highlight with grey blue

- seal with gloss varnish

- wash with Drakenhof Nightshade

- sliver edging with Leadbelcher

- Reds with Khorne Red

I hope this was helpful to anyone looking to replicate and I have included a pic of the paints used.

Now I am working on some armor and heaps of infantry while I wait for some transfers to arrive.
