I started bashing together an army of Alpha Legion a few weeks ago. Haven't had much hobby time lately, but enough to get a Chaos Lord and two troop choices painted. This time around I'm aiming for striking tabletop presence, and try to be relatively fast with the painting. Limiting the use of colours and layers and going easy on the bases are part of this. More pics and rambling at my blog. And there's a WIP thread on 'Dakka as well.

This ain't a Alpha Legion Army its a Ghost Legion Army. Nice job though.

224th Astra Legion (main army)
628th Praetorian Guard Cohort (wife's army)
827th Auxilia Cohort (ad mech fun)
825th Foderati Cohort (in the beginning army)
1212th Foederati Cohort - Jokaero (cause I like apes with guns)

I love it! Some great conversions, and I'm a huge fan of the deviation in colour scheme. I wasn't sure about the abundance of blue/ green at first, but after seeing those orange/ red spot colours, I think I'm in love. Hard to see what the chapter symbol is, from what I can tell it looks almost like a genestealer symbol painted green? It all looks great though, keep up the good work!

Thanks for the comments!

Ghost camouflage / weird xenos tech / crappy OSL effects - these legionnaires use whatever means necessary to distract their foes. Too stupid looking to be taken seriously on the fields of battle, until the bolters start blasting...

The green hydra head chapter symbols are actual Alpha Legion transfers (with Skitarii, Night Lords, Necromunda Enforcer and inverted Ultramarine ones used as well). Good point that they aren't that clearly visible in these pics, being sideways and so close to their surroundings in color value and tone. Definitely very similiar looking as the genestealer cult symbols.

And oh, here's an unit of Chosen. And a group shot of the forces assembled so far.

GW:"Space marines got too many options to balance, therefore we decided to legends HH units."
Players: "why?!? Now we finally got decent plastic kits and you cut them?"
Chaos marines players: "Since when are Daemonengines 30k models and why do i have NO droppods now?"
GW" MONEY.... erm i meant TOO MANY OPTIONS (to resell your army to you again by disalowing former units)! Do you want specific tyranid fighiting Primaris? Even a new sabotage lieutnant!"
Chaos players: Guess i stop playing or go to HH.
