Tale of Gamers - Round 2, Necron Immortals and Night Scythe Complete.

Put the final touches to this segments Necrons. 

I have painted 5 Immortals and their Night Scythe. 

It's not quite the 250 points but having not had the chance to go buy any more models yet I have basically painted what I have left in my box ready to go. 

Tale of Gamers - Round 1, Necron Warriors Complete.

I finished up the Necron Warriors just in time for the deadline last night and got to photographing tonight. 

Here they are:

Tale of Gamers - Round 1, Necron Overlord Complete.

I put the finishing touches to my Necron Overlord 'Phaeron Keksuhad Sekhrey' over the weekend and just got round to photographing him.

He is the Phaeron of my Necron Dynasty  'The Anapnut Dynasty'.

Tale of Painters - Round 1 Jan+Feb 2013

Happy new year everyone! Hope you all waved 2012 farewell and welcomed 2013 with style!! 

The start of the new year also saw the start of Tale of Gamers! For me this meant choosing my first 250pts of Necrons and 300-350pts of Ogres and getting painting. Which I have, and in fact am writing this post whilst waiting for my first skin wash to dry.

I have decided to start out fairly easy and go for mainly HQ and Lord/Heroes choices. Models I can take my time with and get back in to the swing of things on and not have LOADS to do. After all, it has been about 3 months since I last painted anything. Shameful I know.

So, what are my choices for the January and February round? Well I'll tell you.....

Tale of Gamers - Update, 1st Draft Army Lists

The thought of getting involved with this Tale of Gamers for next year has really got my creative juices flowing (thanks for that Skaltar =] ) and I have been pondering what I want out of my army lists since it was first mentioned. After a bit of careful thought and consideration I have come up with a 1st draft list for my Necrons and for my Ogres.

Both are likely to change a little bit over the course of the year, but they give me an idea to start with and I can start painting the core units that won't change first and work from there. 

Tale of Gamers - Update

Just a quick one to add to the my last post about the Tale of Gamers 2013 I have gotten my self involved in.

Skalter posted up a little earlier that he has decided on his army. After some though he has decided on dusting off his old Dark Eldar force that was started not finished. See the full post from him HERE.

On top of deciding on his army he also suggested the idea of opening this up to the Warhammer Fantasy players as well. The basic idea being to have them paint 300-350pts per 2 months to end up with a 2000pts force. Basically a more standard size for them, similar to 40K's 1500pts. I personally think its a great idea as it gets more people involved.

Tale of Gamers/Painters

Just in case you haven't noticed from the lack of posts relating to them I have been struggling to get my act together, get motivated and paint my Necrons. Or paint anything for that matter.
I have been trying to get back at the paint table for a while now but have had little success, the most I have managed is paint in 2 months is the energy cells on 4 Necron Warrior's guns.
Some outside influence to kick me up the arse if I slack off is needed I think. And it has arrived in the form of Skaltar and Mart. I have joined them in a Tale of Gamers/Painters project for next year.

The Anapnut Dynasty - 1800 Points.

Alright folks, welcome back.
Having completely my 1800 point Ultramarine drop pod army, except for a bit of paint, I have moved on to thinking properly about what I want to do with my Necron army.

I feel a bit bad that I left them to gather rust after finishing my Scythe model but to be honest, I kind of lost interest in the army. I don't know why. Regardless of the the reason, I am past the worst of it, and have actually had some fun thinking up new ideas for my army and considering what to buy next.
