Mogsam Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 He looks very Emperors Childrenesque for an Alpha Legion member. Painting and the open hand are great though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noctus Cornix Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Ya, that seems to come to my mind too... Why is he purple? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larkyn Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Ya, that seems to come to my mind too... Why is he purple? Because that's the Legion's color? It's a blue-purple, or blurple. I for one love it. Not quite as stark and in your face as the Emperor's Children magenta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ravenhood Posted September 19, 2012 Author Share Posted September 19, 2012 maybe it is a little to dark may have to brighten it up a bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kizzdougs Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Looking good bro! Once you get some green and silver details/insignia on him it will be clear to all the he is AL not EC. Are you planing to do the AL as a full army? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subtlebrush Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 I really like him! Like kizzdougs said, with some details/insignia he will definitely give off a AL feel. Would love to see some more from you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Natanael Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Too much EC for my taste. My AL are a lot more blue, but I guess that is personal preference. As I understand it the colour of the legions armour is somewhat different if you look at the newer books, or at the older artwork. However - nice to have another brother Alpharius around =) - Nat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ravenhood Posted September 19, 2012 Author Share Posted September 19, 2012 i was thinking i might try going a shade brighter with the purple and maybe try a blue wash see if that makes him pop a little more. currently going Step 1: naggaroth night step 2: 1:1 nagaroth and xereus purple step 3: wash nulin oil step 4: 1:2 naggaroth and xereus any suggestions on that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retributis Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 I would give it some dark blue highlights/wash maybe? and Brighter green heraldry will really pop against the dark base colour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
