Robot sand-bugs and Tomb Guard

Keeping up with my Sandstone Necrons AKA Robot-Legions for OPR Grimdark Future, this last months I worked on some updates to my army. I managed to get my hands on some forge-world kits from a recaster that I plan to use as some of the bigger models in OPR. First is this massive centipede that makes a fantastic centerpiece for the army. I don't like Necron vehicles, so I need substitutes for pretty much everything on the armory, and this centipede can be used as several of the walkers or the tanks of the legions.  The same is true for the bikes.

Rise of the Robot Legions

After a long hiatus I'm taking some time to update my paint-log again. This time I bring to you some more sand-stone Necrons i'm currently planning to use in OnePageRules' Grimdark Future.  I recently discovered this game that is some sort of Warhammer 40k lite, and I'm having a blast with it. So much fun in fact that it has saved my Necrons, which were due to being sold for a lack of use. This game uses way less miniatures so it allowed me to play with the necrons I already had. When I won a recent OPR tournament I used the bonus cash f…

From a shallow tech-grave

This week I finished my Indomitus Necrons at last. The Sandstone color scheme really proved to be very simple and visually stunning for a mass painted army.   After the first miniatures were painted I was pointed at the lack of depth on certain areas and details so I ended up experimenting with several different washes I hadn't had the chance to test yet. Also added a lot of red grass tufts to add some distinct color into the overall color scheme. Many necrons have the grass also growing from them, making them look as If they just raised from the gr…

Necron terror from the sands

If there is a game I ever kept away from, really afraid of the rabbit hole I could fit myself into, that is Warhammer 40k. Through my life I've owned some Space Marines and Tyranids but eventually I would sell them out because I was not into really playing the game (too much miniatures needed). However the new necron miniatures from the new box really caught my eye and a fellow community friend wanted to sell his half of the Indomitus box for a pretty nice price. I was hesitant at first... I already have way too many miniature projects ongoing tha…
