Necron Cryptek - Battle at Sanctuary 101
« on: February 24, 2019, 09:31:38 AM »
I知 still working hard to prepare both armies (Sisters of Battle and Necrons) to refight the White Dwarf 1997 battle report - Battle at Sanctuary 101 !

This week I have focused my efforts on producing a Cryptek to help lead my metallic killers against the Imperial usurpers...







Whilst I知 pleased with how the model turned out... my enduring memory of this project is that Finecast is crap to work with!

A good start - I also gave away all my White Dwarf magazines of this era - but sound this (half way down):

Perhaps their faith in the God-Emperor will make up the difference!!

Very cool! I like your color choice.

I'm gearing up for the same project!!! I'm using Trazyn as my Necron Lord.

I want to have it ready by the time new models drop.
