aioannou Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 Ok, well after a chat with Alpha , i decided to do traitor all hallows guard marines. ive bought the models and they are sitting unassembled. As i get a squad built ill update and then go through painting aswel. Firstly here is the Terminator Lord. So with 1.30 hours spare this morning ive blutacked together my chaos lord. the gap at the front between legs and body will be green stuffed and a robe from teh sprue added. The weapon is a scythe built with a tyranid claw, spiky bits, meat hooks, sorcerer pole and patience. and the head is from the tactical squad sprue, just cut down and horns added. please give any C&C.

The Defiler Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 I just don't know why I haven't thought adding little horns on this helmet... It's brilliant.

Terminatorinhell Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 what did you use for the scythe blade? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/141474-wip-night-lords-chaos-army-picture-update-120908/#findComment-1635691 Share on other sites More sharing options...
aioannou Posted July 20, 2008 Author Share Posted July 20, 2008 the scythe blade is a large nid scything talon from bits n kits, i got 2 for 0.50 and have made 2 scythes, but the spikey one made it to the lord, i made a very plain one aswell as a tester. if you would like a tut of how it can be done though its pretty simple & easy to guess how (cut & glue) Horny Lord! His real name is Lord Shadows of the Hallowed Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/141474-wip-night-lords-chaos-army-picture-update-120908/#findComment-1635721 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpha PTP Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 It is almost ironic that you are making the Chaos version of my army. I wrote the fluff for the All Hallows Guard three years ago and to sum it all up it goes like this: The All Hallows Guard was a full army was one point. Ten companies strong, fully equipped after years of preparation on their homeworld of Leviathan VII. The army started going to war with colonies and planets on and outside of Leviathan VII where they first encountered the Raven Guard suppressing an Ork Waagh! uprising. They acted much like the Adaptes Custodes. The two chapters fought side by side, but they parted and the All Hallows Guard went back to their homeworld, sitting in eternal darkness, waiting for the next foolish uprising to happen in their sector of the galaxy. The chapter, over years of time, started to become divided. Over half the companies were restless and simply craved more battle. They were not trained for years for nothing, afterall. The chapter started going to war more often, often going on crusades to satisfy the chapters need for battle. Slowly over time, the Librarians started practicing strange cult rituals after these crusades. Very few knew of them, but the companies they were part of were beyond loyal. They were considered fanatics, yet were considered loyal to the Emperor and Hallows. Gallows, the Master of Sanctity of the All Hallows Guard, also known as the Soul Cleanser, stumbled upon one of the lesser Librarians practicing a spell that swallowed one of their brethren into the darkness. It was an offering to a demi-god known as Fearus, God of Mayhem and Terror. Gallows reported to Hallows, and soon an all-out war divided the chapter. Hallows personal retinue, the 3rd and 4th companies, and the 6th company remained loyal to Hallows. He set out a crusade to kill the traitors. While in combat on planet Bellum, Hallows fell to a terminator squad that were deemed loyal to the chapter master, but had succumbed to the dark arts. The companies fought on, eventually causing the rest of the chapter to flee into unknown territories of the galaxy. A new chapter master was appointed, and he was renamed Hallows in his honor. It has been a tradition now for over a millennium in The All Hallows Guard. And now, after all of these years, an evil returns in which only the loyal Guardians of Hallows can fight. These men walk without fear into the darkness of their former brethren hearts and very souls. They hoist the banners high and proud, walking silently across the battle field, hanging their heads in shame, but their bodies shaking with rage to finished what they started many moons ago. Skipped some stuff, but you get it. ;) Cool looking start. I am thrilled to see more, mate.

aioannou Posted July 20, 2008 Author Share Posted July 20, 2008 That sounds amazing mate. Kinda fitting as these AHG follow the khornate bath in a thirst for blood and war. I have Lord Shadows completely built now. And his terminator retinue, Judais half built. Expect more pictures and updates regularly, this is going to be the army i put all my effort into making amazing!

Ardus Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 Wow, nice work on your lord. The helm with the spikes and his weapon are very fitting. Keep it up and show us some more. What colours are they going to be? Opposite to Alpha's, or something more sinister? Ardus.

aioannou Posted July 20, 2008 Author Share Posted July 20, 2008 The armour is black with the chaos armour in orange trim. This is what im going with atm, ive got a tester mini i just need to get him photographed and he will be up on here. The sinister look of the models will mainly come from the depth of the orange and the en-masse look they have. Alot of views in just 24 hours, so ill do my best to pull my finger out now :wacko: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/141474-wip-night-lords-chaos-army-picture-update-120908/#findComment-1636096 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ardus Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 look'en good, except I think that he's a little too bright with the orange helm. I'd use your paint mock-up from the painter prog with the black helm or dirty up the orange and make it darker. Ardus.

Alpha PTP Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 I would make the top section of the helm black, and just make the section below the eyes orange. Looks like a good start so far, mate! I can't wait to see that Terminator Lord painted, as well.

aioannou Posted September 3, 2008 Author Share Posted September 3, 2008 ok guys, i have good, neutral and bad news. good news is that the army has made a real progression. all of the units are now built ( 1 vindi, 1 pred, 3 rhinos, 5 terms, 1 lord, 20 tac marines). and shortly ill be finishing the 1500 points off with oblits, chosen and a 5 man tac squad. neutral news is that after a long thinking session and brainstorming, and pallete scribbling i decided that hte previous scheme of orange and black was too...... plain for chaos in my eyes and didnt really do enough for me. So after deliberation i decided they will be night lords with a twist. i still want to keep the orange (semi halloween theme i had before as it was different, but ill be doing the armour a very dark blue, with an orange instead of red trim, and the white death masks) a bit like this, and yes im thinking about avoiding lightning on the models,as i believe to pull it off you have to paint them well, and i dont think i could do it justice). Also there will be few spiky racks and bits and bobs on the vehicles. As in my mind i cant imagine a fast strike force having lots of un aerodynamic spike racks with decorations on them. i think the fast terrifying warriors will be more than enough to lean to chaos, along with some spikes, skulls and chains,,, the bad news is, after a drunked night in london where i left my phone on the train, i no longer have my lovely 5mp phone camera to take pics with. i will however use a 2mp phone camera to take a few more WIP shots for you guys tomoro and ill hopefully have a new tester mini to show you too. any comments and criticisms welcome guys.

Commissar Molotov Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 So after deliberation i decided they will be night lords with a twist. So are you doing Night Lords, or AHG with Night Lord stylings? (Also, do you play at the Peterborough GW often? :)) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/141474-wip-night-lords-chaos-army-picture-update-120908/#findComment-1681271 Share on other sites More sharing options...
