turning warriors into immortals and flayed ones

the tombstalker is THE most epic necron unit
only problem is its unofficial
i will post in the topic which i made about it so tht it will show up
it has a link

Kk thanks ^_^

woo the scissors arrived 2day n me n patrick got to work right away
theyr curved plastic cuttin scissors n work perfectly
i jst finished cuttin the guns out of their hands n meltin one of thems arms into positions (the far left one)
patrick is currently cuttin out the shoulder pads for our immortals
they are at the front of the pic

Why not use Plasticard?

What are you using for hands/blades?

dont have any
using green stuff for hands and nid claws for claws
all the immortals now have their shoulder pads
ll the guns are ready to stick down
one is finished
busy meltin the arms in2 position
one claw is done and looks epic

Sweet, the claw looks really good, as does the immortal! You are going to include the skin on the Flayed ones backs aren't you? Flayed ones just aren;t flayed ones without human skin!

thanks ^^
n true bout the flayed ones
am gna finish em then paint em
then put the skin on as green stuff and paint that

Sweet, shouldn't be too hard to green stuff, make it look really tattered at the edges with plenty of slits and holes in to make it look like they have been 'run through'

hehe yeh
one flayed one is drying and 2 immortals are done
the flayed one looks like hes shocked that he has claws
another has been melted v well (right) n will turn out awesome

Sweet, confused Flayed Ones! Aww!

lolz
they r finished now
just need paintin, skin added, then painted again

Your painting them, then putting the green stuff skin on? Why? To make it easier to paint? Sounds like a good plan if that's your reasoning ^_^

tey look epiiiiic, that was such an awesome idea

Indeed, pure genius! Btw, were they cheaper?

ty pplz ^^
n yeh to make it easier to paint
and yeh they wer much cheaper
warriors cost approx 1.50 each from GW
flayed ones = £3.43 each
immortals = 7.85
i got 15 of them about 50p each off ebay
5 are now warriors + £4 value
5 are now flayed ones + £15
and 5 are now immortals + £36.75
so by spending all tht time stripping paints n cuttin meltin n sticking
i have saved £55.75 - the cost of the spare tyranid peices u'd need
it ws worth the time and effort just for the fun of it, even without such a huge saving

Wow, sweet, I got loads of tyranid pieces... my brother used to collect, as did I... I miss those shit hard to paint bugs.... wait.... no I don't!

lolz much
jst played on dark crusade for the first time in a while n ws reminded how much a combo of lord flayed ones an monolith pwn
painted the flayed ones who had dried 2day
but couldnt be bothered with the immortals
they arent as fun to paint
gave the flayed ones a v thin layer of dwarf bronze to make em look nyc n rusty
left the claws the gold/red colour they wer from th nids
cant w8 for the skin paintin but i dnt have any flesh colour atm

Ah bugger... I never have any decent flesh tones at my house, I just use GW's, I also agree, flayed ones sound awesome to paint ^_^

its much more satisfying knowing my falyed ones are positioned jst right rather than the borin positions the metals ones have

Indeed, they sound really cool, I will have to see them in the flesh for defenate, if you'll pardon the pun ^_^

a couple of the hands havnt dried yet which is worryin
if they arent dry by tmoz i'll redo em

What paint did you use? GW?

yeah all other paints iv had are shit
the hands have dried now
ther wasnt enough blades for 3 on each warriors hand so one flayed one has 2 sword arms

Eh? Two straight fingers? That should look interesting ^_^ At least the paint job is done!

sword arms FTW!!! though... i recon it could be a new type... higher weapon skill ad initiative, at reduced toughness?

whole new unit idea for you there

That would be cool ^_^ Swordcrons?
