I cheated when I painted my Necrons and used an airbrush to get a glow effect. For basic brush work, I put down my metallic base, shaded with wash, and then did a dry brush of metallic again. My Necrons are super basic.

I really need to work on my glowing game.

That green does stand out though.

Nothing wrong with an airbrush. I use one for large areas. Nothing fancy, just a cheap one like this. The only thing is because it's a smaller nozzle, I have to thin the paints down a lot to get it to keep from clogging straight away.
