Necrons project updated 10 April - Illuminor Szeras

[HerbertTarkel]

Great work, I love the colour palette!

I never noticed before, but the overall structure of the is like the face-huggers in Alien - the combination of the prehensile tail, insect-like legs, and oval body. Those features are an unpleasant combination, perfect for an alien (or robotic) enemy.

Thanks! Yeah, these are CREEPY, for Necrons. They were a lot of fun to paint, unlike the monstrosity of the Monolith.

Finished a trio of Necron walkers.

The smaller one is the Canoptek Reanimator whilst the bigger two are Canoptek Destroyers!

Many thanks! The client said “pick any colours you want” - so bright and fun it is! Dark Necrons are just so Terminator

The largest of the single character figures, the C’Tan.


This was my first time painting GW’s “Finecast”, and I hope it will be my last. The scythe felt like it was both too bendy but might break anytime. Lots of little miscasts on the figure. I did my best.

The final five characters of the first batch.

Oh, that is a very snazzy colour scheme!

Thank you very much, sir! I wanted bright and different - probably like your Storm
Cast look great in dark and foreboding…

Received Batch 2 for this commission.

Some of the models were so dust covered I actually had to wash them before I even considered painting …

They brought joy when someone brought them.  With your paint job they will bring joy again.

Indeed! I somewhat enjoy the resurrection process of this. Yes, it does take work, but the end result has been very rewarding!

Happy resurrecting, looks as if a few of us are in the recovery of "previously unloved^TMmodel" business.

Best of luck

Progress today, primed about 60% of what I have to work with. Enough to start painting after the primer cures.
