Necrons: Canoptek Scarab Swarms

It is time to show more Necrons. This post is about Canoptek Scarab Swarms. To tell the truth, four little scarabs on the base do not look like a swarm. That is why I decided to make а real swarm. For this purpose, Christina made for me a form from a special clay. Using this form and my old green stuff, I did a lot of scarabs. Some of them turned out badly, so I glued such scarabs to the bottom. I tried to glue as many of them as possible and on the top I put original scarabs. And now photos.

Some WIP photos

It is form, which Christina made for me.

And this is ready scarabs.

Now they really look like a swarm of scarabs. I'm happy with the result and I like those glowing lenses. I left a few scarabs to use them later. Hope you like those scarabs too.

Necrons: Canoptek Wraiths

This time I am going to show Canoptek Wraiths. This squad is another part of Necron army. Few words about figures. I really like this models and it was interesting to assemble them. These miniatures are made up of small and thin details, but due to their poses, models look huge. Besides, I like that their poses differ from each other.

As well as a Canoptek Spider, I painted Canoptek Ghosts very quickly. Here rusty parts looks better. Glowing parts were painted using airbrush. On Necron models Cristina taught me how to paint such details.

Necrons: Canoptek Spyder

In the beginning of this year, my friend bought several squads of Necrons. All of them were already painted. However, unlike of ours necrons, those models were made in a more realistic style. There were added scratches, scrapes and rust. My friend bought them to speed up our Necrons project. Some time later, we decided to paint further necrons figures in this style, as both of us like such color scheme.

In the end of spring, I started my part of Necrons. I was painting Canoptek Spyder, Canoptek Wraiths and three Scarab Swarms simultaneously. And today I am going to show you Canoptek Spyder. 

It was first model where I tried to make rust. For this purpose, I used dry citadel paint - Ryza rust. For now, I do not fully understand how to use it. The result was not ideal, and in the future I will practice more to make realistic rust. In the end practice makes perfect.

Soon I will show more.

Space Wolves: Grey hunters, 2nd squad (Part 1)

As I said in previous post, I decided to focus on Space Wolves army. Some time earlier I started second tactical squad for this project. For now, half of them is ready. And in this post I am going to show them. I tried to paint these models similar to the first Space Wolves tactical squad.

That is all for now. Soon I will show more.

Blog is still alive

As the title said "blog is still alive" and this is true. After a great pause, I am here again. I didn't post any new messages on this blog for about ninth month. The reason was in lack of spare time. During past time I was really busy, I had to work and study hard at the same time.

But in the beginning of June I graduated from university for the second time. So I became more free and returned to painting models. During a pause, a lot of new ideas appeared. So I am going to realize them. But first I am going to finish my Space Wolves army. It is the project that I am going to focus on.

In the following posts, I am going to show miniatures, which I painted earlier and models that I finished since June.
