Nick speaking,
If you have seen my recent post and video of me making my interchangeable display board, you will know that I purchased a Battlefield in a Box rocky hill. It came in two halves, one slightly smaller than the other. I used the smaller half for my Eldar display board and I planned for the bigger half to go towards my Necron themed terrain.
I made all my Necron terrain way before I started this Blog, and although this is a pretty basic piece, I thought I would use it as an opportunity for me to show you a step by step guide on how I get my Necron terrain colour scheme. Being a piece of terrain that is designed to go on the edge of the board, it will be a nice addition to the rest of my stuff. First I took the original hill and added a few extra stones to it to make it match my board a bit better...
I then painted it Chaos Black...
Dry Brushed it Dark Angels Green...
Dry brushed it Snot Green...
Dry brushed it Scorpion Green...
I then went back over the sand areas with Chaos Black...
Finally, I dry brushed the sand Codex Grey to match rest of my board...

Amazing how a relatively simple paint job can turn a bog standard piece of stone scenery to something rather unsettling and mysterious. Good work as usual.
ReplyDeleteCheers :-)
ReplyDeleteBrillant!!! Your simple swapping of colours turns the imagination from a boring grey hill to a xenos world of green. You definitely put your Sunday Best on for this post. Cheers.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the kind words, best thing was, it only took an hour to do
ReplyDeleteVery Nice indeed, I always enjoy seeing how people can get great looking terrain from so little! I don't play necrons but can see how a change of colour can open up all sorts of possibilities.
ReplyDeleteHope you don't mind but I show cased your post in my blog's Sunday Best which promotes my favourite post over the past week.
