This is my step-by-step painting guide on how to paint Overgrown Necrons using the models from the Warhammer 40000 Indomitus Box set for use in 9th Edition. This could be used as a speed painting technique for an entire army. So why not give it a try?
I used lots of different basing products including;
Dried Tea
Flock
Grass Tufts
Twigs
And two items from Geek Gaming which you can buy here -

These are the plants I used, Barbed Bracken - www.games-workshop.com/en-GB/...
You can get lots of basing materials free in Nature so if you are on a budget don't be scared to go out scavenging in the Woods or Beach. If you do this just wait until the scavenged parts are dry.

This channel is about painting converting and kitbashing miniatures for your warhammer & d&d games, Age of sigmar and warhammer 40k games. I will maybe paint Space Marines, Space Wolves, Stormcast Eternals, cities of sigmar, chaos space marines, painting scale models, miniature busts in the future. I haven't ever tried How to paint NMM. I've done guides on how to paint warhammer, how to paint d&D I may do a conversion guide for Darktide or Dark tide however it is spelled. And in the future I will build and paint some terrain for my miniature war gaming wargaming

Your colour and blending choices are stunning on their own, but on top of that your kitbashing skills are so strong. Rarely a weak choice, the themes you are going for are cohesive and so well-done. Will definitely stay here to learn a lot from you.

Thanks and deffo give it a job! Yeah I would recommend sealing them after everything is completely dry. Oils take a little longer to dry so I'd give it a good 48hrs then give them a spray with a matte varnish. If you want the Daemon flesh to look wet then paint on a gloss on those bits. It's not necessary to varnish but protects your paint job.

I don't know whether it's me or not, but I find it goes really stringy and clumpy despite working through different levels of thinning to the point of over thinning it.... Making it almost impossible to spray on as it clogs my airbrush then fires a runny blast that leaves bad ripples :'( I'm using Vallejo airbrush thinner too

This is simply amazing work! Really inspired me to get back into the hobby. My only question is after you finish all that off how do you ensure it does fall off in use/transit?

@@SlayerMiniatures oh nice! I love this guy I didn’t realise he had a video out like this. In which case, when using the scenic glue, do you paint it on or do you have a spray bottle? It’s the foliage that I’m worried about with such a cool idea as this 😅

@@oscarkelly4707no problem, I'd recommend spray, you can do it all in one go then.
i love this so much!! thank you for the tutorial :) i want to do my army after this style but i was wondering how you painted the swords?

The swords are painted with the same orange and yellow. Just dry brushed.
how is the moss color holding up? did you stabilize it in some way or what, because in my experience moss tends to lose its color over time

The moss I did apply did have some flock added to it after and its great. Over a year later when the models are still good. I'd suggest applying a scenic glue over the models to help all the flock stick :)

@@SlayerMiniatures oh i see, thanks! i am going for a similar look although a bit more like a rainforest and i have been trying some stuff to stabilize my moss because i also do terrariums and the moment that stuff dies it tends to become brown very quickly.

@@valejera1374 yeah its inevitable that it will go brown over time which is why I apply flock over the top. Blends in quite well to be honest! I'd love to see your models when you are finished. Send pics to me on Instagram if you have it

@@SlayerMiniatures sure will do mate! also i do remember that adding some kind of aniline pigment to water and then soaking moss into it is a way to mantain it green long term

No. Thank you. I truly appreciate being pushed up to the next level in this hobby. Never seen anyone going with this, and honestly necrons where the last on my list. The aesthetic is marvellous and your editing and background music is perfect for this video. Perfect pacing, even made a “happy little mistake” and kept rollin. Good job sir.
This would look awesome on an imperial knight, let me know your thoughts on it ;]

This is absolutely amazing. Liked and subscribed. I'm just getting started with Necrons, would you be offended if I attempted to copy this?

Thanks Paul 😊 I wouldnt be offended at all, I made the vids to share it and inspire others. There are lots of other versions on Instagram and Pinterest. Some people do swamp and aztec themed ones too. I'm making a monolith in this style too
Looks fantastic! Now I just need to find an American company that makes similar tree canopies. I'm pretty sure it wont ship from the UK due to it being actual plant matter. :(

You could always go out and find your own in a nearby Wood or Forest? Check out my Silent King video, as in that one I don't use any Moss. I just use Dried Tea and two flocks.
