Hey Shannon, you ever heard of the Vanus Temple? If so, Necrons? y/n If not, why aren't your Necrons like this? www.the-vanus-temple.com/?page_id=1686 All of his new mins and mods are on the frontpage, btw. Also, his work is amazing. He's been all over all those sites that we go too. I want one of his Kharn mins, just to have one so I could set it on the table when we play Black Crusade. |

I didn't think he used any internal electronics.
I thought it was done with a painting technique mixed with how he has the models lit externally for the photo shoot.
But I could be wrong.

Yeah, no LEDs, just the flash from the camera makes the paint bright in a couple shots. If you look at the shadowed edges of the portal for example, you can see it's just solid.
His illuminated painting is amazing though, and he's talked about it extensively on coolminiornot and Dakka Dakka.

yeah his glow effects are pretty convincing... so much so that I thought the monoliths were actually lit with LED's when I first looked!
Okay Justin, don't expect me to be able do that k? lol.... I'll certainly try though!
I'm thinking for my necrons to go with a red highlight.. lots of flesh added... going for the creepy / insane feel - at least for the first list I'm looking at building.... who knows how effective it'll be though... might have to try it out a few times before committing to yet ANOTHER huge painting / conversion project!!!

I just like his character conversions, and he tends to explain pretty much everything.
