Newbie, please be gentle

Started buy undercoating Necron tomb citadel tile with black and white citadel spay paint, in order to get a bright green colour to take well. Used masking tape to cover the areas that I will later spray with a sepia wash.

Post 5: Painting and assembling the flyer


I undecorated the wings black and the chassis/cockpit cover whatever you would call it white.

Post 2: Creating the base.

A router with a round-over edge forming bit, was used on the top side of the base.
I then used a Dremmel multi to carve out a groove, from where the rod exits the wood to the edge of the base.
This will help model the destruction caused by the passing of the "death ray"

A few inches of the rod on the end that will attach to the model, was re-shaped using a grinder.
The idea was to create an
