Necron 1250 COC army complete

Below is the completed army for the 1250 Great Escape Games- Contest of Champions, for Sat Jan 19th 2013. In past years they had some strict Comp rules, and this list was built with those comp rules in mind. Just recently they announced that they would not be using the comp rules. Too late now! It's all painted. In the next few weeks, I'll be going over the paint for the individual units. Until then, good luck at the COC.

finalized necron paint

I've been going back and forth between color ideas. Hopefully this will be the final scheme. 

 You may notice the overloard's staff is a bit shorter. The thing broke on me 3 times and I had to keep gluing/pining it back together. Thank you finecast.  

New Necron Color Scheme

I've been trying out a few things on my necrons, and have finally (I think) come to a color scheme that I like.

Here's some test minis. Any comments/crits are welcome. Thanks!

 reds & yellows are all new GW paints.

++Incoming paint++ ... ++Necrons++

Here's how my Necron force is shaping up. Going for a quick rusted up look. I initially primed with a red oxide/rust color primer, which also serves as my base coat. I dipped them all in a blackish home-made wash to define the crevices. A quick drybursh of boltgun metal finishes off the main look of the bodies & weapons.  More details below....

Immortals - for the immortals & characters I added a blended green shoulder-pads. 

Warriors - I painted over the rods to give them some hyro powered super soakers. 

Scarabs- stole this idea from "fromthewarp". Extra scarbs casted with instamold & milliput. 

WIP characters

WIP crypteks - Simply used extra overlords from Annihilation barge and swaped heads for Deathmark heads. All base tiles are from pre scored plasticard. Popped off and glued to the base in semi random fashion, finished off with sand flocking. 

Necron Music

The good news is I've been painting like crazy! The bad news is I lost my camera in a robery a couple months ago and have yet to replace it. :( Needless to say I haven't had much to blog about hobby-wise without the camera, since I'm more of a: "check out pics of my mini's" kind a guy then a...."words words words" about my mini's kind of guy. Along with painting, going to school, spending time with family, & working, I try to squeeze some music making in when I can. Please enjoy my latest creation. I think this could be a suitable sound track to my newly painted Necrons storming the battlefield.
