Just got most of my basic necron stuff in the mail or on there way and all I got left to come up with is the two large harvester engines. Only found one or two in a search on the forums so I was wondering if any one has any new idea's or reference pics of there own? The ones in the book just don't do it for me so... :-\

Very cool! kinda looks like a necron bomber or some thing(if only necrons had aircraft!, in fact if they did have aircraft I would make a few of those!) I like all the crystals, helps make it look more necron. I thought of a cool idea based around some of the others ones ,but I gota get it on to paper or some thing cus trying to explain it would be tuff.. maybe in a day or two I'll have some thing.

hmmmm, very nice idea.

Cheapest in UK I can find is this one

It'd need cutting up though which might be a little tricky, where did zombo get his? I've seen that model on ebay but the cheapest was close to £30 with postage as it's iternational.

You've probably found mine already but just in case here t'is.

The Aeonic Orb was made using an Exodus Wars Khazari Droid Controller, Bionicle bits, green crystals and a marble.

Cheers,
Steve.

e&c or zombo, do you have any pics of your orb? i just looked at a sight that sells the plasma ball you pictured and it says it stands 6 inches high. that seems way too tall for an epic sized model.

Yup, it's way too big, so I don't use it often.

The Pilot Mini Thunder Plasma Ball is more appropriately sized, but would need modifying for running on batteries.

http://cgi.ebay.com/New-Pilot-Ip-140pl-Mini-Thunder-Plasma-Ball-Car-Pendant-/220662820315?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3360876ddb

Shouldn't be impossible; I think it's 12v so a 9v and 2 AA batteries in series should work.

You could use one of these:

They seem tricky to get hold of, the website of the company that produces them doesn't even list them.

Go to http://www.pilotautomotive.com
get the phone number, ask them about product # IP-139PL.

They do catalog orders, they say it's active just not in the catalog. So I *THINK* you can just order it.

If anybody does get in contact could you let me know as I would too be interested but doubt the shipping to UK will be very flexable/cost effective direct from the company.
