GrandMagnus Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 Ive said it before and I will say it again: the perfect Alpha Legionary.

Ramell Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 Got the parts I was waiting for today, a Mk III Power Weapons Set and an Iron Hands heads set. Here's a preview of what I've been working on: http://i660.photobucket.com/albums/uu321/Ramell_of_Cadia/Horus%20Heresy/March%20of%20the%20Legions/MotLXX13-11-14.jpg Only the base is glued together, everything else is blu-tac. Since most of the parts are in great condition (not much flash, no big holes), I could be ready to prime on Sunday. That is, if WoW doesn't steal too much of my time. Still, my motivation levels are good, so I feel I might just finish this guy before November is up.

GrandMagnus Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 Nice, an Alpha legionary in MK III armour. You usually only see them in MK IV - VI Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/298727-march-of-the-legions-xx-legion/page/12/#findComment-3861817 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramell Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 He is very different from the usual, super-duper sneaky Alpha Legionnaire, both in model and fluff. Mostly because I had some spare Mk III parts laying around.

Kizzdougs Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 I assume that you GS'ed the shoulderpads? They are dam amazing, just as the rest of the model. Edit: teacher! Teacher, I have a question! *third grader voice* How did you paint the Alpha Omega and XX marks? I can't seem to find the correct greens for it. Hey bro, the shoulder pads are greenstuffed except for the chain on the Alpha-Omega. I used a mix of Snot Green (now Warpstone Glow) and Ceramite White for the icons. I can't remember the exact ratios but I did take some pics. Here are the five steps I took using the previously mentioned colours. http://i1122.photobucket.com/albums/l522/kizzdougs/DSCN3194_zps900251c7.jpg http://i1122.photobucket.com/albums/l522/kizzdougs/DSCN3195_zps8f8f87a9.jpg http://i1122.photobucket.com/albums/l522/kizzdougs/DSCN3196_zps25e4e419.jpg http://i1122.photobucket.com/albums/l522/kizzdougs/DSCN3198_zps0fff113e.jpg http://i1122.photobucket.com/albums/l522/kizzdougs/DSCN3200_zps167a26b6.jpg Hope this helps :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/298727-march-of-the-legions-xx-legion/page/12/#findComment-3861934 Share on other sites More sharing options...

KBA Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 Glad you're digging it :). I think the new helm and its plume really fit well with the tartaros pads. A little iconography, and procrastination on painting will end. *gulp* Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/298727-march-of-the-legions-xx-legion/page/12/#findComment-3862101 Share on other sites More sharing options...

DuskRaider Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 Keep that skull helm look. It's proper grim dark. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/298727-march-of-the-legions-xx-legion/page/12/#findComment-3862145 Share on other sites More sharing options...
KBA Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 Everything is blue tac, so you'll probably see more changes before paint. I thought the cape and hooded helm were a little too blatantly cloak and dagger for the Alpha Legion. I think this version of the mini says, "I will find you, I will kill you" a little better :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/298727-march-of-the-legions-xx-legion/page/12/#findComment-3862148 Share on other sites More sharing options...

FuzzyBunny Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 So finished up my guy. I've never been a fan of the XX legion so I don't have any fluff for him. I also might spiff up the base a bit more as it is kind of plain... http://i198.photobucket.com/albums/aa166/FuzzuBunny/Sold%20Stuff/10448775_871034129604166_5091089352702707680_n_zpsf922338a.jpg http://i198.photobucket.com/albums/aa166/FuzzuBunny/Sold%20Stuff/1234417_871034156270830_3760686278065129441_n_zps80a37765.jpg http://i198.photobucket.com/albums/aa166/FuzzuBunny/Sold%20Stuff/10411118_871034176270828_4213772180390433511_n_zpsadbe6052.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/298727-march-of-the-legions-xx-legion/page/12/#findComment-3864599 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barabbas Sogalon Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 I won't be able to finish, currently lacking both time and motivation. I'll be waiting for the XVIII.

Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 When's the next legion coming up and which legion? It's one month for each Legion and we're starting at the end and moving backwards, so the XIX is next, starting on Dec 1.

Fair enough, sign me up! I, Castiel, accept my role in this. I promise to lead the XX Legion into the zone of war, and conduct them to glory. I will do so no matter the ferocity or ingenuity of the foe. I pledge my honour to the XX Legion. On this matter, and by this weapon, I swear.

Xin Ceithan Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 You guys really are amazing. I find getting the Alpha bluegreen finish...daunting by brush. must really get into airbrushing.
