Building is Hard

I’ve found that I don’t really like building models. It’s long and tedious and boring. So for my last sprue of Necrons, I thought I’d just cut them all out, clean them up, and glue them all in one big batch. I mean, they’re all warriors, so surely you can mix and match parts…

Well actually no. The arms only work with certain backs, the chests only work with certain back/arm combos, and the heads only work with certain necks. But it was too late to turn back, so I just crammed things together until they fit. So that’s maybe not great, but it does mean the all the Indomitus Necrons are built!

Really, I got all the building done in a couple of days. If I was more disciplined, I could have gotten more done this week, but I’ll still take this as a win. I’ll work on basing and priming this week.

As for painting, I think I’m just gonna go with a simple metalic paint job, maybe add some rust, and green for the glowy bits. Just keep it simple and get it done.

I also started painting the Untamed Beasts that came in the Warcry starter set. Warcry looks like a lot of fun, and the starter set came with some terrain so I won’t have to play on a bare table. Hopefully I’ll get that game to the table soon.

And that’s about it for this week. Hopefully the next post will be with fully painted Necrons. Until then, game on!
