New Paint Testing!

Nick speaking, I managed to get to my local GW yesterday and have a go with some of the new paints. They didn't have them all, but there was a few in each range there for me to try. I have to say, from what I have seen so far, the new paints seem excellent. The new White covering black will make a huge difference to many I am sure! The...

Necron Codex Conclusions so far!

Nick speaking, Well it's March 25th 2012, which means it's my 40th birthday! I started playing 40k with Necrons about ten years ago, so I thought I would celebrate my 40th on my 40k Blog with some Necron stuff. Since the Codex hit I have been having some real fun with the new rules. I still haven't tried out all the units, but I think I...

Anyone using Necron Lords?

Nick speaking, I am sure that almost everyone who played the previous Necron Codex would have owned at least one Necron Lord. After all, Resurrection Orb Lords were the bread and butter of any Necron army, and with only the Destroyer Lord and C'tan as a second option, it is pretty obvious that GW would have sold a very large amount of foot...

Necron Overlord Painted

Nick speaking, Here is my Overlord as promised, and like my Stormlord, I tried to match him in with my old Necron Lords. I converted his Warscythe to take a green rod, and magnetised both his arms to give me plenty of posing options, including having him holding onto the Command Barge. I hope you like him, please let me know what you t...

Necron Stormlord Painted

Nick speaking, Here is my finished Imotekh the Stormlord. I tried to paint him up to match in with my Necron Lords that I did about ten years ago. I am one of those very few people who actually like the green rods, so I converted him up with a rod as well. I have been trying to get my picture quality up a little, so let me know what you...

Necron Annihilation Scarabs Battle Report

Right from the outset, I knew It was going to be an up hill struggle. Necrons, in a spearhead, annihilation mission, against a Dante based deep strike list with loads of FNP re-rolls, was always...

I based it on the large oval base, and it's about two inches shorter...
