Miek Posted December 27, 2020 Author Share Posted December 27, 2020 (edited) I was a bit fed up with the head, so I started painting the body and decided to try doing NMM (started with the left arm): I'll look for a guide before going too far ;) Edited December 27, 2020 by Miek Bryan Blaire 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miek Posted December 27, 2020 Author Share Posted December 27, 2020 This is going to take forever, but I think it's going to look pretty good: MithrilForge and Bryan Blaire 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nexus17 Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 These are great - I really like what you did with the internal bit of the necron that's just a bottom half and the NMM on the lord has a lovely satin lustre look to it. How do you model the 3D printed lightning? I'm looking to do something similar but haven't had any luck getting that kind of style going.

Miek Posted December 27, 2020 Author Share Posted December 27, 2020 Thanks! I can't share links on this forum but I think you'll find it easily if you search for "Marvel lightning effect" on a very common 3d model sharing website. Then I "3d kitbashed" the lot in Meshmixer (cut, scale, stretch, merge, etc.). I modeled the gun myself, PM me if you want the source (it's freely available but you'll need the link).

Brilliant, thank you! I think I've tracked down the one (thing 4359684) - looks spot on for me! Miek 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miek Posted December 28, 2020 Author Share Posted December 28, 2020 And that's it for today, I'm so happy with the result! There are a few missing bits but overall the NMM armor is pretty much done. The flat brown parts are going to be my usual red gradient with more diffused transitions. MithrilForge and Bryan Blaire 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miek Posted January 1, 2021 Author Share Posted January 1, 2021 (edited) Took a tiny break from the OL to speed build my first terrain piece from scrap; I'm pretty happy with it and it gave me ideas for my next 2 terrain pieces: There's pink rigid insulation foam, a piece of an old router (those often have really interesting textures and patterns), parts of an old printer (the fortification walls), PCBs and random bits. The pics shows a second application of plaster; I forgot that my grey primer melted the insulation foam and thus had to repair several spots.

Miek Posted January 4, 2021 Author Share Posted January 4, 2021 (edited) Started working on the weapons! Painting between the lightning was hard... And I was dumb enough to start with those! But I like the outcome; it simply took longer. There's a bit of work left everywhere but it's nearing completion and I'm really gonna have to print her final head soon!

Bjorn Firewalker Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 I like the lightning effects on the gravitational beam emitter. Miek 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miek Posted January 9, 2021 Author Share Posted January 9, 2021 Here's the head I decided to go with. She's ready for my big day tomorrow! I'll finish this model and either paint a ghost ark (currently magnetizing it), paint 4-5 terrain pieces I built a few days ago, or both.

Miek Posted January 9, 2021 Author Share Posted January 9, 2021 (edited) And here's the final result: Moving on to the ghost ark. It was quite a mess frankly, when I put it together I didn't expect I'd ever paint any model so I didn't put much effort in cleaning it up, and didn't magnetize it. I'm basically breaking it apart, cleaning it up and putting it back together.

Miek Posted January 17, 2021 Author Share Posted January 17, 2021 (edited) I made this little guy for my ghost ark (I removed the broken warriors and magnetized this guy and the DDA's canon). I gave it the old spider's head, I think it looks cute: Edited January 17, 2021 by Miek Syrakul and Bryan Blaire 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miek Posted January 25, 2021 Author Share Posted January 25, 2021 (edited) A few terrain features I'm working on in parallel with the ark and 13 necron warriors: I've also started working on 3d models of lychguards with shields to complete my unit (I only have 5 of them at the moment). It's too early to share pictures, but they'll likely look like the originals (no fluff reason to make them look differently).

Miek Posted February 7, 2021 Author Share Posted February 7, 2021 Some progress on the ghost ark. I'm not following a particular plan, but I'm slowly getting to the final color pattern. The blackish parts will have a blueish gradient so it doesn't look too black. The dark blue color is what I use to identify vehicles with quantum shielding: Bryan Blaire, Triszin and Grotsmasha 3 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
