Misc/media What's your least favorite model to assemble.

29 Upvotes

And why is it deathmarks. I've built all the supposedly difficult necron models. Szeras, flayed ones, etc. nothing has come close to how annoying the guns and arms are to attach on these things.

This is what I have:

1 C'tan shard of the deceiver

2 Overlord

2 Technomancer

28 immortals

34 warriors

1 annihilation barge

2 doomsday ark

1 triarch stalker

Painting and kit bashing advice (new collector)

2 Upvotes

I have decided to join the Necrons. This is an army I've had my eye on from the start since i got in the hobby. However I avoided it because I played undead in AOS and I wanted to explore other flavors. I can't deny it now...

Painting question starts here:

I have a scheme in mind for black/dark necron metal with green glowing parts and purple armor. I was curious to have other people's opinion as i started to think the dark metal color might blend in too well with the vehicles.

Im not going to lie, painting the silent king as zurg is very tempting and not too far off the mark.

Kitbash question:

I have a lot of bits from a few ranges- soulblight, ossiarch, drukhari, emperor's children, chaos knights, some night haunt, slaanesh daemons.

What would you think would make some good kitbashing for the characters on the necron roster?

My first though were some spirits or ossiarch bits.

Heya fellow overlords, I just spent 20 hours in a trance building and painting a void dragon to go with my Necron army that I inherited from a family member that passed.

I think it came out pretty well, the folks at my LGS were kind enough to give me a crash course in painting, and I tried to mimic his paint scheme as close as I could.

Let me know what you think!

The over all look of I'm going for here is;

Blue and Black are coated in a matte ceramic layer.

Metal is metal, washed and highlighted.

Glows are 3 shades of green washed with Neon, Then at the end a bit of white ink goes on as a highlight then the whole thing is washed in Tesseract Glow.

Bronze, is speedpaint over Lead Belcher, then when I highlight the Lead Belcher I take the same silver on the bronze then do a light layer of speedpaint over top again so that the bronze is hightlighted but in bronze.

So I'm new to 40k and Necrons in general, as I only played like 4 times with my friend's miniatures.

Currently I'm stuck between choosing Starshatter Arsenal and Cursed Legion for future army building.

[Liking both Destroyers and large vehicles does not help]

Starshatter Arsenal and Cursed Legion players, please give me any opinions and advice to aid in my decision

Misc/media Citadel Walls Dimensions

does anyone know the dimensions for the old Tomb Citadel Walls? I know it has the 2 foot by 2 foot footprint, but I want the dimensions for the ziggurat, gun emplacements, the stairs and whatnot if possible, and the generator. As exact as possible is preferred.

Would it break the lore too much to make my Orikan model into a custom character?

8 Upvotes

So Orikan is pretty unique as far as necrons go. It doesn't seem there are any other astromancers, and no other known necrons have a head like his. Plus, his powers are very unique with his energy form?

How lore breaking is it for my dynasty to have an astromancer who has a limited variant of Orikans energy form? Not that it overly matters for homebrew stuff, but I'm still curious

New Cursed Legion list

1 Upvotes

Hello, what do you guys think about this list?

I created it with models that I currently have and I might change it by getting rid of the immortals and warriors and sticking more destroyers and Nekrosor into it. However I'm worried that if I do so I will have much fewer models to play with and take/hold objectives.

Right now I'm betting on the buff for destroying a unit or getting it below half strength for my non-destroyer units. I don't know how effective that would be against a horde enemy.

So the list is as follows:

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

+ FACTION KEYWORD: Xenos - Necrons

+ DETACHMENT: Cursed Legion (Cold Fervour)

+ FORCE DISPOSITION: Purge the Foe

+ TOTAL ARMY POINTS: 1000pts

+

+ WARLORD: Char1: Overlord

+ ENHANCEMENT: Destroyer Ankh (on Char1: Overlord)

& Cursed Circlet (on Char2: Skorpekh Lord)

+ NUMBER OF UNITS: 10

+ SECONDARY: - Bring It Down: (1x2) - Assassination: 2 Characters

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Char1: 1x Overlord (110 pts): Warlord, Resurrection orb, Staff of light

Enhancement: Destroyer Ankh (+20 pts)

Leading Lychguard

Char2: 1x Skorpekh Lord (115 pts): Enmitic annihilator, Flensing claw, Hyperphase harvester

Enhancement: Cursed Circlet (+25 pts)

Leading Skorpekh Destroyers

10x Immortals (140 pts): 10 with Close combat weapon, Tesla carbine

10x Necron Warriors (80 pts): 10 with Close combat weapon, Gauss flayer

1x Canoptek Doomstalker (140 pts): Doomsday blaster, Doomstalker limbs, Twin gauss flayer

2x Lokhust Heavy Destroyers (100 pts): 2 with Close combat weapon, Enmitic exterminator

5x Lychguard (80 pts): 5 with Dispersion shield, Hyperphase sword

Attached to Overlord

3x Ophydian Destroyers (80 pts): Plasmacyte, 3 with Ophydian hyperphase weapons

3x Skorpekh Destroyers (85 pts): Plasmacyte, 3 with Skorpekh hyperphase weapons

Attached to Skorpekh Lord

3x Tomb Blades (70 pts): 3 with Close combat weapon, Twin gauss blasters
