This is the start of my shiny alpha legion done to my colour scheme - I know it's no where near as good as some I have seen on here but they are quick to do and I like them :-) I will add more pic as I finish things off

That's a great alpha legion color. Nice base on the fire raptor too.

Gorgeous models, what colors did you use?

Thanks guys - the colours are auto air candy teal and candy green over a metallic base - I have done a video of it being applied to a couple of rhinos, put it up on YouTube

It looks great, my main criticism is just that the side pod gun barrels look super not-parallel.

Nice

Problem is they are magnetised on to allow for swapping with heavey bolters - issue being curved surfaces with flat magnets :-)

I think I might have to bite the bullet and just remove the magnets and stick 1 set of guns on

Arnt those wings on backwards? Like the curvy side is suppose to be facing towards the front.

Like the color scheme! Those damage/wear effects on the Storm Eagle are great.

What did you use for the diamond pattern on the side??

chicken wire and a air brush

Great stuff, I think they look the part as is. As for the magnet issue I don't think it is too much of a concern for the price of versatility as long as you can live with it. My only suggestion is you transfers look a little like erm... transfers. A tip I use is to coat in a layer of varnish and then work them with a little bit of fine sand paper just to give them a bit of a weathered look. But this is by no mean nessersary and are still a 9 out of 10 from me.

Negative

Link to the rhinos please! I love the color, most alpha end up blue or green, this is the perfect middle.

Thanks for the feedback guys - was first time using transfers so might give that sandpaper idea a go.

The video link is below - it's not great and I have to add narration to this, should be done tomorrow or Monday
