Thanks Robert. I agree, the blue is a little striking/overpowering. I’ll need to hammer out a few more pieces to see if I can get the same glowing effect but a little more subtle.

I made this tutorial back in ’04 when GW actually had Boltgun Metal (BGM) spray. Since it no longer exists I changed it to using an airbrush with the same paint. You could just spray in Mithril but you may need several coats as it lacks the same coverage that you can get with BGM.

I really should revisit this tutorial as it’s been years since I’ve touched my IW’s. I just hate painting space marines. They are SO boring!

…GAH! I made the comment that I liked the look. It’s close to your DE theme, but I like e blue as an offset. I would
Ike to see it a lot more subtle though. All in all, looking good brotha!

nOOb question but why bother with the Boltgun Metal at all if your just gonna cover it completely with Mithril Silver?
It seems almost a redundant step unless your leaving some dark edges or something but as per the tutorial you’re just covering the Boltgun completely.

Looking freakin’ sweet Shawn. I have a box of Necron Immortals (I think I built 1), that I’m never going to use. The list I came up with uses only warriors. Let me know if you want it.

That is going to be a fantastic looking army. You can always rebase the armies once you figure out what is missing. Have you thought about having a martian red base? Adding reds and oranges to the base would add warmth to contrast with the cool colors you have on the miniatures. It would also make it easy to use rust colored weathering powder from FW to tie the lower legs of each miniature to the base. Just and idea… No mater what you do these are top notch minis.

@Throatpunch – I wouldn’t allow myself to paint any on my own goodies untill I completed my commission for Dave. Since that project is 90% completed I went back to my ‘Crons to break up the monotony.

I’ll have some sexy pics for you here really soon. Hopefully tonight!
