Im brand new to WH and painting, ive searched up thousands of tutorials on how to paint my necrons. One thing I've learned is that, yes there are universal tips ans tricks you can use, ultimately you can paint them how YOU want to paint them, so long as you enjoy what you do. Most of all, dont compare yourself. Instead, inspire yourself.
I've always loved the aesthetics of Necrons, and that weapon glow came out beautifully! Nothing quite like Immortal Egyptian Space Terminators marching with Neon Glowsticks to strike fear into the enemy!
Fantastic tutorial I’ve been looking for something to get me started. I just bought the elite edition this year because of all the hype surrounding the Warhammer supposed movie or TV series so I figured I’d delve into this since I’ve always been a D&D and tabletop guy This will be new to me and I’m very excited and this has to be one of the most detailed. Hey, this is how you kinda do it videos love it even though I’m two years late better late than never, and you made a subscriber out of me.
First off, welcome to 40k! 🍾🤘🏼 Necrons are a super fun army, always a pain in the a** to play against Glad the tutorial helped, if you have any questions or future video suggestions, feel free to comment or DM
@@thedrypaintpot I do have a suggestion actualy. A follow up to this concerning the overlord. How to paint there blades. And I am guessing there are a few different styles to paint in if I look around. And maybe some alternative dynastie colors.
For the blade, check out this older video I made ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-f-SO8AVOilQ.html As for different dynasties, I can do that! Added to my list
finally took the plunge and started painting necrons, im loving how you make it glow. i really wanna get the necron sigil on the chest but got is it hard! love your work
I enjoyed this. Nice simple steps that someone like me, although I have been painting minis for 30 years, can follow and use in their painting. Subbed.👍👍😉
It’ll surely make a big difference. Learned the hard way starting off by painting a character with that stuff right out the pot, you learn quick that thin is how to do it 👍🏻
Dude, I'm glad I found this video because I just assembled my first batch of necrons yesterday. I look forward to painting them this weekend and I will definitely refer back to this video for assistance. 👍and subscribed.
@@thedrypaintpot well since your offering I do have one question...can you paint em for me? Lol just kidding. Take care, stay healthy and I look forward to checking out what I can learn from the rest of your videos.
Thank you for the video. I’m getting back into the hobby. I had to leave the hobby in 2013 but I finally got back into it this year. I missed it so much.
Thank you for this awesome video! Bought my first necon set and started painting guided by this video. For now, it looks pretty damn cool, if I say so myself haha. The only thing I struggle with is the edge highlighting. Do you have any tips or tricks on that topic?
That’s exactly why I make these videos, so happy to hear it’s helped! As for edge highlight, get a brush with a nice fine tip. I get the best results by using brushes that aren’t too small, I end up edge highlighting with my later brushes. Make sure there’s not too much paint on your brush and carefully run the edge of the brush along the edges you’re highlighting. Whenever I get time to make a new video, I’ll demonstrate
A bit late viewing this clip, but, I'd suggest putting in two or three stainless steel ball bearings, which would act as an agitator for all one's paints. No waste residue on a 'stiring stick'?
I know! ☹️ idk why they would but ehhh who knows with GW. Good alternative off the top of my head might be a mix of fleshshade and Agrax with a light nuln oil gloss on top
@@thedrypaintpot I've heard the paint had some technical issues, I believe it became sort of gummy according to people who used it, but Trovarion seemed to come up with a very simple alternative, ya it's what you said, Reikland Fleshshade on top of plain silver, I haven't tried just yet but looked very solid! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-I4JAFJglhWU.html
Try going back over some raised areas with pure base color but don’t go overboard and cover the places you want dark. Also, water down the shade Hope it helps!
@@thedrypaintpot works great I use Abteilung 502 Black for my Necrons, and I use Abteilung 502 Burnt Umbra for my Death Guard. If you get a change look up some people on the RU-vid using them. Mostly your Grimdark and Blanchitsu style. It is a little bit more work than an acrylic wash but well worth it.
I’m not sure, haven’t used them yet. I love the look but I’m not sure if it would be good on the models I want to use it for. I pack my army into a foam case and I’m afraid it might make the dry pigments wear
