The client sent us some winter-themed Necrons to work with. The samples, by a different painter, seemed to have been inspired by these Necrons by the Midwinter Minis Youtube channel:
We did our own variants in line with the quality we wanted to offer. The client liked what he saw, and we stamped out the army you see here.
Blue Glow
The first task was to pick out which parts on the minis were emitting a glow. Then we had to pick out which of them to make glow — if they all did, it would take away from the effect. As implied by the video above, we used no airbrushing. We almost never airbrush anything. Whenever we do, I think to myself, “that’s right! We have those, don’t we?”
Black Sections
You can’t paint an army all-white and call it done. Especially with the snowy basing, we needed to offset all the white. Towards this, we just picked out some areas with black. It gave us the contrast we needed, and had the plus of being black. Black is always classy.
These were done to Showcase Quality.

Paintedfigs is a miniature painting service. You can send us your figurines to paint, and we also have painted miniatures for sale. We paint mainly Games Workshop (Warhammer 40k, Warhammer Fantasy, Age of Sigmar, Necromunda, Space Hulk, Bloodbowl, and so on), Star Wars, Warmachine and Hordes, and pretty much every Kickstarter and board game under the sun.
And we do so at the lowest rates on Earth (we’ve checked).
