Imperium - Dusty Necrons - 001

 So this would never be my choice of army but I thought, it comes with the magazine, let us give it a go



Again, a nice simple and very quick paint scheme... slap on the metal.. .give it some touch colours... black wash on metal...


I like the bright blue and purple as a tone to complement the metallic areas


Basic bases again with the crackle type paint I originally got for my Admech


They come up reasonably well for such a basic paint job


The rust effect Vallejo paint also helps here 


Except these... these.. these I hate.. the worst blooming models I have ever had to put together...so fiddly...


Imperium - Dust Wolves 001

 So yes... I subscribed to the Imperium Magazine.


Dust Wolves - not Space Wolves... Dust Wolves... a desert type planet origin with large dust storms obscuring most of the surface.



A simple paint scheme similar to my original space marines I did over 20 odd years ago (Dark Templars)



Using the decals from Space Wolves for a wolf image



Basic bases at the moment using some crackle type GW paint



Some toned down muted colours with subtle highlighting

Going to Town

 I now have a nice little collection of bits and pieces... some are in a better finished state than others... but I wanted a "group" shot.



There are several gangs of Orlocks in there, some civilians, some ratskins and even a set of arbites.

More bodies

 Yet more bodies for the Orlocks... another batch ... this time with some random additions, some gribblies and even some escapees from some fantasy setting.



This one must have quite a punch!




I love a dual wielding pistol gunfighter type!



Hmm.. not quite your normal Necromunda inhabitant
 

These are a quick trial... from Wargames Atlantic... just to see how they might fit the Imperial Guard vibe..


Always got to watch out for the little gribblies down in the sump...


Or even the mighty big ones!

A Place to Live

 So you also need a place to live... you know.. somewhere to count the creds... crack open the crate you .. ermm.. borrowed... and live the high life.




These are actually formed from a set of "containers" but instead of using the bases I glued them directly onto the large base. I used some of the then spare walls as extra walls (indeed I have a couple left over) and the rest is bits and bobs that are spare from the sprue or things out of the bitz box.





Everyone needs fuel... water... promethean... whatever keeps you and yours going through those long dry months.




All in all, this lot, plus the three "shops" from the earlier posts, have cost me around £20 in total, including delivery, from eBay.

A Place to Shop

 Everyone needs a place to shop...


An aerial view shows the back of these three 'establishments'




Here we have the front of them, along with the 'added' extras that can be removed to adjust the level of gubbins on show and in the way of line of sight.




I will have to get a better picture of the inside... this will be the 'Docs'. There is a medical seat to go in here from the objective box set. Is the ratskin asking or demanding treatment here?






This is the 'All In Shop' which caters for a wide range of needs.







This is the local 'Guns R Us' with its own resident shell shocked shopkeeper.

Getting Grubbier


 Now they are starting to take shape.. this is before making them very grubby and dirty with a big wash ...I want them to seem very run down and rusty and dirty and muddy... I cannot imagine they would be pristine shops in the depths of the underhive.
