Heresy Era Alpha Legion update!

I put my 30k Alpha Legion army on hold over Christmas as, well, I didn't really have the time for much hobby sadly. Now that I'm back at University though I've finally got a bit more free time (ironically) to work on painting the army and so I've decided to start on the Cataphractii Terminators that come in the Betrayal at Calth set.

Corvus Corax, Dark Fury Assault Squad, and Legion disparity

The Raven Lord in all his glory

Well Corvus Corax, the Raven Lord, Primarch of the XIX legion or 'Raven Guard', has gone up for pre-order and I gotta say the model looks incredible!

First Veteran Tactical Squad Finished!

First Squad Finished!

Well after temporarily abandoning my preferred method of painting, I did the the remaining 7 marines from this Veteran Tactical Squad in one go...

Painting in an Assembly line format

In an effort to speed up my painting as atm I have something like 40+ models to paint, I've decided to, instead of painting them one at a time as I usually do, to paint a whole bunch of models at once. I usually prefer to do them one at a time as I then feel like I can take my time on it but it does, as a result, take forever...

The Start Of The Legion

So following the release of Betrayal at Calth I have built one of the Veteran Tactical Squads as well as the Contemptor Dreadnought and the Captain in Cataphractii Pattern Terminator Armour. I've decided not to assemble all of the models at once as otherwise I will take even longer than normal to paint them than usual. I am probably one of the worlds slowest painters as I managed to do the Dreadnought, Captain, and the Sergeant from the Veteran Tactical Squad in four days which is a pretty good going for me tbh.

If only I could afford multiple boxes of this...
