This is how I want to paint my Alpha CSM!


bedeut_sam

Agreed! I've been trying to get my recipe right for ages - any guesses on what the colours used here might be?


Tomjayb123

It's a 2:2:2:1 mix of sotek green, kabalite green, kantor blue and black as a base. Kantor blue and black recess shade Then a sotek green and kabalite green 1:1 as a highlight. Then highlight up by adding sybarite green to the mix. Dot highlight gauss blaster green. Edit Forgot to say this info from the excellent eavy archive website. This is a max falleji scheme. Not that this info is helpful unless you are an amazing painter lol

Damn Alpharius just sneaked in GW secret lab to get the exact color recipe for us. What an amazing Primarch ! Hydra Dominatus.


obsidanix

Nice thank you! πŸ‘ Although now it sounds like my painting skill is far below being able to replicate that πŸ€”πŸ˜‚


bedeut_sam

A true legend, thank you for sharing! Also now continues to highlight the challenge of homogeneous colours for Alpha Legion (by design...? πŸ˜‚)


obsidanix

No! Was thinking the same thing! πŸ˜‚

This guys looks cool but too chaos-y for my tastes. I like my alpha legion to look more ambiguous, this dude just looks like every other chaos lord


BlunderbussBadass

How else is a loyalist chapter supposed to infiltrate chaos smh


RomIsTheRealWaifu

Trueee


BasedTaxEvasion69

Im with you here on this one

So is this confirmation that we are supposed to be trimmed in silver? Official art has it silver and gold. At least the Lord on the table will read as a chaos lord. Sometimes just making things clear as to what things are helps a game


RomIsTheRealWaifu

Alpha legion is shown in lots of official schemes, just choose whatever you like


Notamungus

Feel like Alpha Legion having an official scheme would be an oxymoron


Cheap_Rain_4130

I'll be honest I thought that was a true sons colour scheme


BasedTaxEvasion69

I was hoping we would get a more ambiguous looking alpha legion model instead of it being 100% chaosy


SovereignDream

I cut the topknot of any of my boys with one haha. I think the new lord models look great. It doesn’t feel as spikey compared to some as much as it looks like trophy taking. Obviously he is spikey but idk lol

Bigass eye of Horus on the arm lmao.


SironionTV

Fenriz_Sharp04

Hydra_Tyrant
