            Unfortunately during a quiet period at work I inadvertently ended up on an auction site and made a couple of purchases. One was a post war British tank and the other was this big lad. After completing the large scale marine I thought he needed a friend. This is a Necron Flayed One. If they defeat you they take skin and wear it. Iโ€™ve posed him with one of his 28mm buddies

                Me too John, unfortunately they are made of a strange rubbery material thatโ€™s an absolute swine to get the mould lines off.

                  Is that a reaper bones mini Mick? If so, have a look around about priming them. Some primers react, leaving them sticky and unable to dry. If not, Iโ€™d still recommend going with a water based primer because it sounds like the same type of material. Ugly looking brute isnโ€™t he. Like Eduard Scissorhandsโ€˜ more scary cousin.

                    Itโ€™s a McFarlane figure same as the space marine I did. I gave that a really good wash and used a GW rattle can to prime him.
                    ugly is being kind to him, a face a puppy wouldnโ€™t lick

                      Good call. GW and Army Painter are the two primers that get most recommended for this type of plastic Mick :thumb2:

                        My last completed figures as I step back into a bit of plastic welding. These are a unit of Stormcast Annihilators. They were fun to paint with their large shields and lightening running in them and in the hammer heads.
