Space Marine Scout again

Semi - finished this time. The wash on the back is still drying so I took that time to take a picture and show :D I'm thinking it looks very cool, I'm getting the hang of highlighting black with two grays so I guess I learned something new today :D



So what do you guys think?

edit: last update for the night, washes dried and painted some stuff. Still need to fix something on the face.

necron vs eldar

hello guys, my brother and I decided to do our first in house game. Points were set at 535 and the lists were:

eldar:
HQ
farseer + doom + fortune + 3 warlocks

troops
dire avengers +exarch two shrunken catapults + bladestorm + wave serpent + scatter lasers
guardians + scatter laser

heavy support
war walker +scatter laser

necron:
HQ
Necron lord

troops
2x 10 warriors

heavy support
1 heavy destroyer

Deployment was on the two opposite quarters of our coffee table. Game was decided by dice; anihilation.

The monolith was part of the terrain.
Eldar forces prepared for combat.

Necron lord preparing his necrons to defend the monolith.
After the first turn (eldar 1st necron 2nd) two warlocks were obliterated by a hail of fire from every necron.
At the end of the second turn a barrage of scatter lasers made one of the necron units flee from the table (soooo not necron-like)
The wave serpent approached, unloaded the dire avengers which just tore the warriors to pieces. The Farseer used doom and fortune on the dire avengers which just made things worse. The wave serpent moved in front of the dire avengers in order to prevent the necron vengeance but it was already too late. Necrons phased out leaving no trace of their defeat... only in my heart :(
Fun game nonetheless. Wednesday we might do another two armies :)

xv8

Ok, this is a WiP with the tentative final weapons and gear. The shield on the right hand is just for show since he can only take 3 things. The drone is finished.
I slacked on the modeling part and now the painting part is suffering because of it. There is some flash I didn't remove that gets on my nerves.
Also, I don't know if I'm going to paint some lines and segments white or another color. The tau in the tau of war are painted white and they look pretty damn good. Still undecided.


It's a lot better than the firewarriros but still i think its missing something :(
