Here is a chaos dreadnought that I painted a while ago. I decided to paint up a spare set of arms yesterday.

"Blue and green should never be seen".

This is a prime example.
Sorry to say, I'm not a fan of the stark green highlights on that blue... It just looks really off.
there's also a lot of empty spaces on the armour plates that could use some details such as scuffs or decals of some sort.

I can see what you were going for here and for what it is, it's pretty cool. It is an AoBR Dread, correct?
Also, just to clarify, this is supposed to be Alpha Legion, right?

It's a great start and I think that, with some work, it could look really cool.

I disagree with the last post blue and green can work. This is a good start needs to be a little cleaner and more layers of highlight on the edging. Try starting by watering down a darker green then building up to a bright green edge highlight. You may need three Colors to Acheve the right effect. Blue and green take pestiferous just keep at it DUDE!!!

use some green stuff

Wrong.

Blue and green do work well with each other. If you need proof check out my Eldar gallery.

--I like the dreadnought. I have always liked that chapter of chaos space marines. I think the green highlights and accents are appropriately placed and really bring out the blue. Your base also looks great, nice work!

Some of the green highlights looks sloppy, especially under the center parts.

Alpha Legion that aint to bad i like the the green and blue combo

its nice but doesn't really scream chaos :3

But hey, remember that Alpha Legion is secretly supporting the Emprah by
being Renegades somehow.
