So, I was poking around on the Interwebs a few days ago, and I found a blurb on some site that pointed me to another site, and so on... you know how it is when you're browsing... Anyway, I ended up on a page about Team Kebek at Adepticon 2013.
This year, they put together an army/display that combined Necrons and Tau, and it is very creepy-cool. My first impressions went from "ho-hum," to "Oh, that's kinda neat," then to "holy crap, that's freakin' awesome." The army has a Borg-kinda feel to it, and the team even included a comic to tie all the fluff together. You have to see this.
Just an FYI, I like to think that we are not alone in the universe, but the notion of a Borg-like race, or even Necrons somewhere out there, assimilating other races, scares the living hell out of me. This army connects me to that fear a little, and yeah, it gives me the creeps a little --but I like it. Particularly in this case, it is very well done.

Clik here to view.
You can find more pictures of the army here, and the comic here. The team also has some cool photos from their previous Adepticon entries (IG and Orks).
I must admit, I did not find the site by accident, but I was unable to re-trace my steps in order to properly acknowledge the person or link that led me to it. So if you happen to have seen the same blurb that pointed me there on BoLS or somewhere else, or if you happen to be the one who posted it, please let me know so I can give credit where credit is due. And thank you.
Thank you too, Team Kebek. This project is exceptional work.
