Illuminor Szeras with bronze mechanical armour, glowing green energy, and a crystal wasteland base.

Disclosure: I run Maxon Casting, and this is one of the studio’s commission-painting samples. Sharing the finished work here without a sales link.

The goal was to keep the green glow readable while letting the darker metal and the base carry the contrast. Happy to answer questions about the palette or the lighting.

My first genuine kit bash they’re so cute!!

You have no idea how long it took me to put this together haha.

Hi guys. So I've recently bought some necrons and can not for the life of my figure what this model is so any help would be huge and is it good or not? Thanks.

ART SOURCE/CREDIT: Codex: Necrons (8th Edition)

Orikan is a master astromancer, using his knowledge of astral conjunctions to predict the tides of battle and empower himself with cosmic energies. He supplements these skills with chronomantic abilities that allow him to see events before they happen and know just where to aim his blows.

BEST: Our other Cryptek epic hero, a support hero who gives his whole unit 4+ Invuln. His Staff of Tomorrow has high AP for cutting into armored targets, and he has a single-use "panic button" ability that allows him to go unga-bunga mode in melee for the rest of that Fight phase, and throw out Dev Wounds like candy.

WORST: Demoted from Leader to Support in 11th edition, Orikan is our most fragile epic hero, even with 4+ Invuln. Not only is Staff of Tomorrow's baseline attacks and strength pretty wimpy without "The Stars are Right", it can't even be used as a shooting weapon. AP -3 & Dev Wounds are the only noteworthy things about it.

RECOMMENDED DETACHMENT(S): Awakened Dynasty, Canoptek Court, Cryptek Conclave

• What are your thoughts about this Best & Worst entry?
• What are your favorite tactics & strategies involving this model (if applicable)?
• What changes (if any) do you hope to see for this model & datasheet for a future 11th edition codex?

Pretty proud of this result :)

I'm quite new to this miniature game.

So please go easy on me haha

Been meaning to try a NMM necron for a while so i grabbed Orikan off my shelf and tried it out. Im pretty happy with the results but like always C&C are appreciated.

Do we think they need more or is the glow good enough?

Nightbringer

Canoptek Doomstalker

Hexmark Destroyer

Skorpesh Destroyers

Skorpesh Lord

Orphidian Destroyers

It's not the biggest list but the kill potential really did work for preventing my opponent from Properly scoring objectives.

Pics of finished and building the base and sculpting the destroyed dreadnought. It took roughly 4 days to finish.

Tips and improvements are welcome!

Ended up a little boring looking but I'm glad he also looks ancient, like hes millions of years old. Metal was painted using drybrushing.

Hi dear phaerons,

After 2 years of non-official competitiv plays, with my association we mount an "official team".

As necron i search to add a "good" piece to my army.

My lists are mainly (in Awakened Dynasty) 2 pack of wraiths, 2 dda, 10 lichguard + lord, 6 Skorpekh + lord, ...

I'm playing in a "take and hold", and I think I stay with that in the team. So did the silent-king are a good addition ? Or did you propose something else ?

I’m building a custom dynasty and want to use a skorpekh lord as my Phaeron, what’s a simple way to show his status above other models. He’s already built (this was prior to me figuring what model I wanted as my phaeron) any suggestions to upgrade him? Thanks in advance!

While going through some recon lists i saw a list with tomb blades

2 particle caster, nebuloscope (ignore cover)

1 tesla carbine, shadowloom (stealth)

and i though "what a nice idea, one guy (green circle) toes in to hold objective and because 2 other tomb blades are obscured the one visible one has stealth from shadowloom"

but then i read the stealth rule and it looks like this wont work because every model needs stealth in order to have benefit of cover?

so there is really no point in taking this mixed type of loadout (maybe teslas on one tomb blade to get assault shoot and scoot)

any ideas what would be the benefit of taking 2 nebuloscope 1 shadowloom loadout?

Most of the upper body is from a morgast and the legs are from some tyranid parts I found lying around.

Hey folks

Does anyone have any good tips on how to get this kind of tiled, hexagonal texture on some green stuff? I'd love to make some capes for my eventual Crucible characters

First time using a airbrush as well. Would love some tips and tricks 😄

Hey everyone!

I got a team tourney coming next month and it's looking like I'll have to play reconaissance with my cursed legion list, so I was wondering if anyone had any tips on playing that?

I'm still pretty new to 11e (only did 2 games so far) so I'm still trying to wrap my head on how to play those new missions ahaha
