    Awesome! Mind me asking what paints you used? I’m considering starting a Necron army at some point and love the vibe of these.

      Necron Body:

      Dark Purple - Pro Acryl

      Macragge Blue - Citadel

      Magic Blue - Game Color

      Voidshield Blue - Army Painter Warpaints

      After each color is a 50/50 blend with the next color.

      Full cover with the dark purple, then “directional color” ) akin to a zenithal prime. Each new layer gets smaller, to just highlights with the voidshield.

      Energy glow:

      Screamer pink - Citadel

      Bold titanium white - Pro Acryl

      Magenta fluorescent - vallejo model color

      Coat the whole area in pink. Highlight areas in white. Coat everything (overlap onto the blue) with Magenta fluorescent, as it is transparent.

      “Gold” Accents on characters:

      Mephiston red - Citadel

      Gryph-hound orange - Citadel

      Trollslayer orange - Citadel

      Dorn yellow - Citadel

      Cost area in mephiston. Lightly coat with gryph-hound. Directional color with trollslayer (same direction as the blues), then light highlights with dorn yellow.

        Thanks to its transparency, it is easy to use the Magenta for simple “object source lighting” effects.
