I also thought that brighter basing goes well with his\u00a0infantry and their black shoulders and cleaner look, but would clash with the burgundy and heavy washing here.<\/p>\n<p>Plus, these guys were on slotta-bases, so I was either going to have to greenstuff the bases quite a bit, working around the feet and under the cloaks, or build up some rubble. I went with the rubble mostly\u00a0because it was faster and easier, but\u00a0partly to\u00a0reference the Necron abilities to destroy vehicles and buildings. Originally the rubble was going to be colored to match the badges as if\u00a0it was paneling and debris from Space Marine vehicles, but again\u00a0I decided big blocks of other\u00a0colors would detract from the nice simple\u00a0contrast of the\u00a0burgundy\/metal\u00a0scheme.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2113\" style=\"width: 540px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rocketshipgames.com\/blogs\/tjkopena\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/resorb-lords-yorick.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2113\" class=\"size-large wp-image-2113\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rocketshipgames.com\/blogs\/tjkopena\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/resorb-lords-yorick-1024x846.jpg\" alt=\"Alas, poor Yorick!
