Facing the task of painting a large number of titans in a fairly short space of time, I brewed this recipe for use on my titans using mostly contrast paints over a metal coloured basecoat to achieve a quick, effective finish. You could easily adapt the contrast colours used to achieve a metallic finish for a variety of other colours. Inks carefully applied can achieve a similar result properly thinned. Using washes as a substitute for the armour panels tends to leave a very matt finish which is hard to add any more depth too so I would not recommend them.
This is a beginner recipe, assuming you are doing things in batches. I personally don't like to paint this way, but it's the most efficient way to put an army together.

Everything is shaded with tamyi panel liner or an oil/enemal wash of your choice(gold optionally so)
A celestial Necron dynasty inspired by the endless darkness of deep space. Ancient blackened metal and midnight armor are covered in swirling blue, purple and magenta nebulae, scattered stars and subtle constellation markings. Brilliant turquoise and icy-blue energy contrasts against the dark armor, while restrained gold details mark the dynasty's rulers and most important constructs.
The scheme is designed to scale across an entire army, from subtle starfields on Immortals to dramatic cosmic effects on Destroyers, Doomstalkers, Doomsday Arks and characters etc.
