Here you can see how I painted my Warhammer 40K Necron Destroyer flying bases.

Firstly scratch the surface of the base so that the glue will stick beter to it

Here you can see the result after scratching it

Then apply the glue with some cheap brush to cover the whole surface evenly

Make sure to place FIRST all big rocks or crystals or stones (I used ruby stone on my bases) and then the small stones or sand

When you are happy with the position of the big rocks, apply all small rocks and sand. Then leave it to dry.

It is very important to let it dry completely before painting. Then I covered my crystals and central plastic and primed the base on both sides. When the primer was dry I applied first layer of “RHINOX HIDE” paint

After “RHINOX HIDE” I use drybrush to apply “STEEL LEGION DRAB” layer paint

Then I used drybrush with “TYRANT SKULL” dry paint lightly to let the rocks pop out more

When satisfied with the paint I applied small drops of glue and then applied flock to match the base with my other unit bases

Remove flock that is not glued to the base and finally very carefull I painted the edge of the base with “STEEL LEGION DRAB”
