Necron Dynasty - Destroyer Cult Re-Based

Hello Overlords, since the Lokhust Heavy Destroyers came out, the change of base from the clear flying stands to the terrain bases is something I liked a lot. So, I made plans to change the entire Destroyer Cult to the new style bases. They look much better together with the terrain bases.
Here is a Destroyer, a Heavy Lokhust Destroyer and a Destroyer Lord for comparison.
The original Lokhust Heavy Destroyers were conversions, and the Destroyer Lord.
Three Lokhust Destroyers
Three more Lokhust Destroyers
And the final three.

Thanks for dropping by. Cheers, Siph

Necron Dynasty - Lokhust Heavy Destroyer w/ Gauss Destructor

Hello All, thanks for dropping by. Another addition to the Necron Dynasty whilst I am away with work.
This is a Lokhust Heavy Destroyer armed with the anti-tank Gauss Destructor. Similar to the older Heavy Gauss Cannon of the old metal and 'failcast' Heavy Destroyers kit, but updated - it needed it! My previous failcast adventure is detailed HERE and meant I had to convert Heavy Gauss Cannons from spares of the Tomb Blade kit.
This has the same simple scheme as the previous Lokhust Heavy Destroyer with the anti-infantry Enmitic Exterminator. Both of which look great and similar in size alongside the older Destroyer kit, seen in my previous Lokhust post.
I added some of the old Necron decals, as all my previous Destroyers have them, but the same film issue continues, even though I used Micro Set, Micro Sol and 'Ardcoat gloss... minimal annoyance.
Its a beefy gun, and the energy blade beneath echoes the same as my Immortals.
Here it is alongside the other Lokhust Heavy Destroyer.

Necron Dynasty - Lokhust Heavy Destroyer w/ Enmitic Exterminator

Hello All, thanks for dropping in, I completed a little project I had prepped whilst away with work, so on my return I sent it straight to the front of the painting queue, a nice little mini to add to my Destroyer Force - I'm not sure what is in the Codex as I have not yet bought it, however I have 9 Destroyers, 2 Heavy Destroyers and a Destroyer Lord - I hope theses are still playable!
I opted for the rule of cool when it came to the weapon, the Gauss Destructor I guess is a replacement for a Heavy Gauss Cannon and the chosen Enmitic Exterminator is like a couple of Autocannons for horde clearing, but looks far superior so it stays, I'm sure my older two converted Heavy Destroyers can be counts-as Gauss Destructors.
I followed the same scheme as the previous Destroyers, a plain upper torso and blue shell. Red gauss energy effects.
I like the chips and dents the new sculpts have, makes them look a little more weathered and beaten.
'Tis a mighty fine looking behemoth of a gun - even if 3D3 shots at S7 -1AP D1 is a little lacklustre compared to a single S10 -4AP D-3D3 tank killer shot, but two different roles, just that Necrons don't have a problem clearing Hordes with the mainstay weapon being a Gauss Flayer.

This shows the size comparison between old and new 'heavy' destroyers - the older shell is actually considerably bigger but the new sculpt has a lot more mass. I like the addition of the non-flying stand base too, a nice update miniature, I just hope the old ones are playable!
Thanks for checking my latest addition to the Necron Dynasty,
Cheers, Siph (2pts)
