    I air brushed the green glow effect. As for the layout I just drew a line directly under the middle of the Stalker following the curve of it's body. Then started with the darkest green and fanned out from there. Then going lighter and lighter and not spreading it out as much.

    I finished 1/4 of my Immortals tonight! It's nice to see the shelf slowly getting filled with painted models.



    And just a picture of my very cheap but surprising well working air guns for $20 ea.

    Started and finished one of five Crypteks today. I also converted my own Illuminor Szeras:

    Brilliant plog mate. I love your color scheme, I was actually thinking of doing something similar to this for my crons and your tutorial mad eit seem rather nie and straight forward. And you Szeras is rather epic. Look forward to seeing him with some paint!

    Hey thanks, I got around and finally painted Szeras! Now I'm working on the hours of edge painting I have to do on my Ghost ark.....

    Looking great, actually like him better than the GW model! You also do the green glow from the weapons/orbs so well. Is that just dry brushing or very watered down layers?

    I have to agree with BowlingShirtJerk, your conversion of Szeras is much better than the new games workshop one. He looks really big and menacing. How much taller is he compared to your infantry models?

    Looks like a Deathmark on some bitz.

    Gotta love the Harbor Freight. Got one of those airbrushes for $15 on sale. Works pretty slick.

    It's been way to long but I have a nice model finished to make up for it. I finally finished my Ghost ark and it took way to long to paint all those lines... I now dread my Doomsday Ark. Let me know what you think and I will try and update more often.

    Great looking army you got there mate! Simple, yet a very effective paint scheme.

    I really love your monolith and the tomb stalker. The immortal coming out from the portal is really effectfull, not to mention the glowing effects from your tomb stalker on the land speeder.

    Consider me subscribed and I'm looking forwards to your next update Keep up the good work!

    Re: Shiny new model syndrome.. Necrons....

    Thanks guys! I decided to re paint my monolith now that I have my air brushes but I had one hell of a time trying to keep the new GW paints from drying too quickly in my airbrush and forcing me to have to clean it every 5 min. but I got the job done.

    Wow! It looks even better now! Nice to see that you transferred the glowing effects from the tomb stalker to the monolith as well.

    What is the next unit you're painting up?

    That is an awesome monolith - well done.

    What do you want to see next? I have:
    9x wraiths
    2x Triarch Stalkers
    1x Doomsday Ark
    25x Immortals
    4x Crypteks
    2x Canoptek Spyders
    1x Destroyer lord
    and about 20 more scarab bases

    Right now I am currently working one of my Salamander Tac. squad but I will pick up and start another Necron unit after that. I'm pretty open to paint anything next but the Doomsday Ark, It will be awhile before I paint that...

    Jeez, that's alot of models to choose from I'd like to see the Canopteks, I really like those sculpts and your paintjob will make them look awesome for sure. Keep up the good work!

    I'd like to see some Immortals if they're armed with Gauss Blasters, just to see the air gun glow on all that Gauss weaponry! Or the Stalkers.
