Tyriks Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I use leadbelcher spray. I have noticed some problems with the way paints cover it, like when painting abbadon over it the black looks very flat and matte, not as shiny as usual. So for regular necrons its great, for stuff like tomb blades though I don't like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyriks Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Yeah for warriors, Immortals, scarabs, stuff like that, it's amazing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MithrilForge Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 That's my intention too, for the masses of troops - leadbelcher spray, for characters and 'special' units black spray!... The time saved on troops(of whom we have lots) Easily makes up for a bit more time spent on the nicer stuff. Cheers, Mithril Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LutherMax Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 You could even use the silver spray you used on the SG sword! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indefragable Posted April 30, 2018 Author Share Posted April 30, 2018 Fashion show time! Who wore it best? [poll] A B C D [/poll] A: B: C: D: Comparison: From left to right: A,B, C, D Breakdown: Hidden Content A: -prime black -leadbelcher by hand -nuln oil wash -necron compound drybrush -eshin grey and ironbreaker highlights on weapon -energy parts = jokaero orange + troll slayer orange + firedragon bright + pallid wych flesh + lamenter's yellow glaze B. -prime black -leadbelcher by hand -nuln oil wash -necron compound drybrush skipped this part to keep it darker and dungier -eshin grey and ironbreaker highlights on weapon -energy parts = jokaero orange + troll slayer orange + firedragon bright + pallid wych flesh + lamenter's yellow glaze C. -prime black -leadbelcher by hand -nuln oil wash -necron compound drybrush -agrax earthshade wash to give it a dirtier, older look -eshin grey and ironbreaker highlights on weapon -energy parts = jokaero orange + troll slayer orange + firedragon bright + pallid wych flesh + lamenter's yellow glaze D. -prime black -leadbelcher by hand -nuln oil wash -necron compound drybrush -eshin grey and ironbreaker highlights on weapon -energy parts = jokaero orange + troll slayer orange + firedragon bright + pallid wych flesh + Bloodletter glaze Regardless of other factors, I think I am going to skip the yellowy lightning effect on the energy parts since my fine motor skills aren't good enough to consistently get thin enough energy lines. Mine look too think and come off like wrapping paper or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr4Minutes Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 My vote is for D. Why? Dunno, but I like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golf33 Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 I like A and C. I think C is the best as there's more contrast and interest in the body. B's body is too dark and lacks definition (might look really good with a light highlight of silver though). D's weapon is too red/pink, I like the orange hue better.

MithrilForge Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 I like A and C ...although with C i think i'd keep the Agrax to areas such as knee,shoulder,arm,hip and ankle joints and leave the larger areas a bit cleaner for contrast. A&C have the best weapons colour But A's is the best coil effect. Cheers, Mithril ++EDIT++ i just noticed your comment about the energy effect...NTAW does a good effect on his Thokt Dynasty http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/335538-ntaws-thokt-dynasty/ ... perhaps you can just use the same easy technique but with your own colour palette...?

LutherMax Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 A for the coil and C for the armour for me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indefragable Posted June 11, 2018 Author Share Posted June 11, 2018 Latest work: Immortals which do you like better? A. Darker/Dirtier on the left B. Brighter olive green on the right? Destroyer and Heavy Destroyer comparison Besides the hugh-jazz gun for the Heavy variant (stolen from a Triarch Stalker), I wanted the differences to be a bit obvious. What do you think? ...still need to figure out how I want the eyes to look....classic Terminator-style red? Going to base with just plain ol' sand (painting Necrons is supposed to be EASY!)

Bjorn Firewalker Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 Well done. Latest work: Immortals which do you like better? A. Darker/Dirtier on the left B. Brighter olive green on the right? Personally, I prefer the one on the right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daimyo-Phaeron Lenoch Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 I second that. The right is the way to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LutherMax Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 I too prefer the green on the right. What are you using to shade the left one – is it Agrax or Camoshade? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golf33 Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 Hard to tell with the yellow cast to the photos. Could you get some with natural light instead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
