40K Showcase: Head-Turning Alpha Legion!

Some days you see an army that just sticks with you into the next day.  I knew at first sight that this Alpha Legion army wasn’t something you see every day.

Now a couple of things here, the light blue with white trim and the understated XXth Legion iconography is just inspired.  The weathering normally catches folks’s eyes next with that amazing chippped paint technique. The subtle thing is the hue of the rust itself acts as a perfect complementary color for the blue chapter color.  Sharp work there!

Now there are some who differing opinions on whether the weathering is just right or goes too far.  In my mind we are dealing with the Alpha Legion here – who can tell what is truth and what is battlefield deception…

You can see for yourself if you dare – these babies are headed to Adepticon in a few weeks time.
