More Necron Warriors Finished + Group Shots

I got some serious motivation over the last couple of days and cranked out the other 7 Warriors I had assembled and primed.  Here are a couple of work in progress shots...



 I have enough of the army painted now that I felt it was worth getting out my "taking pictures" tile and snap a couple of group shots.  I will say that I'm REALLY happy with how the energy rods on the Warriors turned out.  The army is really starting to have a cohesive look.  I'm NOT happy with the scythe on the Nightbringer.  I might have to paint it black and try again.

Here you go...








Next up I have some Immortals.  I've already started on them, but I'm very up in the air on the base size.  Immortals, Deathmarks, Praetorians and Lychguard are starting to ship with 32mm bases.  I'm ok with keeping Warriors on the smaller 25mm bases, but I'd rather keep the army with the most current base size.  Hence, I may or may not rip the Immortals off their 25mm bases, rebase them, prime and start over.

It's just time, right?  As the 4th Earl of Chesterfield said in a letter to his son, "Whatever is worth doing at all, is worth doing well."  Words to live by.  Sigh.  I'm totally rebasing these Immortals.

Incidentally, the tile was done using the same technique I demonstrated in my first painting tutorial video.  If you missed it, you can check it out here...
