This is the model I've been messing with over the last week or so.
After being interrupted by about 20 different projects I finally managed to get the time to finish it.

It's a very simple conversion of the finecast Abaddon model with his ridiculous shoulder spikes and hair-do removed.
I painted it one of my test colors for my starting up Alpha Legion, pretty basic blue/steel coloring but I added in blue-turquoise gradient on the plating and used green for the weapon colors.
It's also my first attempt using my airbrush and wet-blending on the sword and claws respectively.

I think it turned out well, although I would have used a brighter blue in hindsight.

This is different, I really like it.

That is good, you've taken a new look at an old model which is interesting to see.

I actually really like the blue color you achieved. It's more subdued and makes the green stand out a lot.

W/o the pony tail and spikes, it looks enough like Abbadon to not be a weird counts as, but he also looks unique enough to fit in with the army. I really like it.

Thanks, I appreciate it.

If you think the choice of blue is a good one I'll move on to using it on my other legionnaires.

The Blue undercoat is interesting.. I'm going to try it out !
