Alpha PTP Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 (edited) Hallow Wing : Terminator Squad of the All Hallows Guard ++Required Identification... Processing data++ ++Identification confirmed... Welcome Brother Gallows.++++May Hallows and the Emperor protect. Accessing Hallow Wing data.++ The Hallow Wing, the finest soldiers of the All Hallows Guard, lead by Master of Sanctity Gallows, the Hallow Wing teleports into the most deadly areas of combat. Originally lead by Chapter Master Hallows during the Phoebe Rebellion, the Hallow Wing are the only loyal members of the original 1st Company after the rebellion. Hallows fell during the latter part of the Phoebe Rebellion to a squad of terminators who claimed to be loyal at the start of the rebellion, but they betrayed the Chapter Master and killed him during combat on the north section of Leviathan VII. The Hallow Wing honors the death of Hallows by keeping the original colors of the chapter, and they wear them with pride on the battle field. Project: Resurrection Project : Resurrection is going to be my continuous blog till the squad of six models, and Gallows are finished. I am hoping to finish all of them by the end of the summer. I don't want to rush these models. I want them to be my pride and joys. Anyways, here are the pictures thus far. Gallows pre-painting. http://i257.photobucket.com/albums/hh230/HollowJester/GallowsFinished1.jpghttp://i257.photobucket.com/albums/hh230/HollowJester/GallowsFinished2.jpghttp://i257.photobucket.com/albums/hh230/HollowJester/GallowsFinished3.jpgAssault Cannon Terminator WIP painting. http://i257.photobucket.com/albums/hh230/HollowJester/TestOrange1.jpghttp://i257.photobucket.com/albums/hh230/HollowJester/TestOrange2.jpgEnjoy, please follow along!Alpha Edited July 8, 2008 by Alpha PTP Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/139607-hallow-wing-project-ressurection/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpha PTP Posted June 28, 2008 Author Share Posted June 28, 2008 Wonderfully converson and a nice orange. Which brand and how many layers did it take to achive that effect. I use Vallejo. I went from an equivalent to Vermin Brown in Vallejo to Fiery Orange. It is about nine layers, give or take. I also used a lot of wetblending too, so the colors look like they flow together, as you can see.

Â That Orange is making me hungry, damn it's nice O.o; Â Keep it up! Â Usi :) Â PS - That Chaplain rocks :blush: Â First of all, thanks. :D There is a pretty funny story behind how the chapter came up. A long, long time ago when I was but a wee lad, I worked at my local hobby shop. It was getting close to Halloween, so I decided to paint up some models for the window. I had some extra marines and I painted them up and threw them in the window. I still have one of the original All Hallows Guard models on my desk to remember it. They were originally called the Halloween Marines, but my friend helped me come up with the name All Hallows Guard from All Hallows Eve. All Hallows Eve was what Halloween was called a long, long time ago. Â The only Halloween influence there is in the army is one of the two chapter symbols. One of them is a half black, half orange shield and the other one is a jack o' lantern surrounded in vines. Other than that, they are a homage to my favorite time of the year, Halloween. Â Thanks about the Chaplain, guys. He took six months to convert from start to finish.

Honda Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 I will never get tired of seeing your chaplain. There are many excellent chappies done in the past (Bushido's is still freaking awesome), but yours stands head and shoulders above any I've ever seen, including anything that GW has even thought of doing (and I love their BT chappies). Â I'm not trying to blow smoke up your kilt, I just think that you have taken your chappie into the "legendary" level as far as modeling goes. The challenge doesn't stop there however. He needs to be painted like you've never painted before. You are right not to rush this project. It is one of those "marquee" type units that defines an army. The chaplain and accompanying troopers should just blow people away. You are well on your way to accomplishing this. Â No pressure though. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/139607-hallow-wing-project-ressurection/#findComment-1612785 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyrannicide Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 It's great to see some more progress from you Alpha. Of course Gallows looks incredible, probably the best Terminator Chaplain on the boards. The coolest part about that model, would have to be his 'death mask'. It really does ooze with character, it's fantastic. The orange is particularly nice too, on the second termie. I look forward to your progress, this should be awesome! ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/139607-hallow-wing-project-ressurection/#findComment-1612918 Share on other sites More sharing options...

How long before we see Gallows get the treatment? I think it is Cult of Orange time for you. Thanks, Kurgan. It takes quite some time to paint the orange, but the end result is fantastic. I am going to try and strip the paint off of him in the next two days. I primed him and started painting him, but I didn't like how it was turning out, so I want to start fresh. I shall join the cult, brother. ;)  @Honda : Thank you for the praise, Honda. I have no intention of rushing Gallows. He is like my child at this point.  @Marovingean : Glad to see a fan. Thanks, brother. :D  @Darth Potato : Thank you for such high praise, Darth. I put my soul into building him. I plan to paint him just as well. It took over six months to build him, I want to spend my time painting him to live up to his conversion.   Alpha Edited June 28, 2008 by Alpha PTP Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/139607-hallow-wing-project-ressurection/#findComment-1612925 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurgan the Lurker Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 Which oranges are you using exactly Alpha?

(Vallejo Game Color) 1:2 Mixture of Orange Fire (Vallejo Game Color) and Blazing Orange. (Vallejo Game Color) Highlight of Orange Fire.  Building up from Vermin Brown to Blazing Orange is where most of the work comes in. It is very tedious, but the result is worth it. Glaze the colors together. Use a mixture between the two highlights of almost pure water. It will be about the consistency of paint water. Load your brush up, then wipe the excess onto a paper towel. It dries up quick, by the way. :lol:  I know, there is a method to my madness, though. I would be painting right now, but I have been up since 2:30 am and I am so tired. I am going to go take a nap, then go paint.   Alpha Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/139607-hallow-wing-project-ressurection/#findComment-1613062 Share on other sites More sharing options...
icallitsoda Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 Excellent... I love yelllow/orange marines. Can't wait to see more.

The AHG have been going on since 2004. I won Best Army with them at the Baltimore Grand Tournament in 2006. I am close to a full company now. All I am doing is one Terminator Squad. The Hallow Wing is the only loyal remaining Terminator Squad. Read the small bit of fluff on the Hallow Wing I posted. :) Â All that is left for an official company is : Epistolary Librarian Fearus Three Tactical Squads One Assault Squad One Devastator Squad All the additional support I have planning to paint are : The Hallow Wing Two Dreadnoughts (Romulus, Remus, and Illbis. Illbis is painted.) One Predator One Land Raider (I intend on doing magnetized turrets. IE : Normal, Crusader, and the "Inferno" Patterns) And be assured brothers and sisters, I will be posting every single model on here when they are done!

Alpha PTP Posted July 3, 2008 Author Share Posted July 3, 2008 (edited) Updated pictures. These pictures make the black look very dark. I don't know if I should add more grey to it to add more contrast to it. I feel as if the orange is too radiant for the black. Here are the pictures. Criticism is always appreciated.  http://i257.photobucket.com/albums/hh230/HollowJester/HallowWing3.jpg http://i257.photobucket.com/albums/hh230/HollowJester/HallowWing4.jpg http://i257.photobucket.com/albums/hh230/HollowJester/HallowWing5.jpg   Alpha  ++Edit: I also got some white primer and Simple Green to strip Gallows and start painting him.
