Making Necron Sacarab Swarms More Swarmy!

Ever since I started collecting Necons many years ago I have always wondered why a scarab swarm had only four scarabs on its base. To be honest four isn't a swarm so I decided to make mine look more like swarms. Hears how I did it.


What you will need:
  • Lots of patience
  • Green stuff
  • Instant mould
  • Unused Scarabs
  • Knife
  • Clippers
  • Super glue
  • Hot Water
  • Paint and Brushes
  • Basing Materials
Step 1
Take your Instant Mould and put into boiling hot water for about 3 minutes

 Step 2
The Instant Mould should now be soft. Take your unused Scarabs and push into the Instant Mould

Step 3
Take the Scarabs out of the Instant mould and put the Green stuff in the Instant Mould

Step 4
Leave Green stuff to set for around 24 hours then take out of the Instant Mould

 Step 5
Using a knife and clippers trim the new Green stuffed Scarabs 

Step 6
Super glue the Green stuffed Scarabs into position on your base





Step 7
Finally paint your scarabs your colour scheme and base




 And there you you have it how to make Necron Scarab swarms look like a proper swarm!
