Redbaron997 Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 For an army with 4+ IOCUs, having all of them with the skin drapped over might get repetitive (and I cant paint skin) Is the Chaos star from the Defilier set to big or can it be placed on a standard and not look outa place.

Corpse. Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 A bit offsized but it works, even trimming it down to look chaotic is alright. Look for older icon bearer bits if you can if you really like the sculpted stuff. Look on the left side of this page for bits stores. http://tsoalr.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minigun762 Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 One thing to remember is that it never says what an Icon has to be. I've thought about giving my Icon Bearers a special piece of flashy wargear (like a big shield) and saying that that is the Icon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vissah Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 You can use whatever you want for an Icon mate, I use those backpack banners from the Marines kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who said it had to be skin? Sure, that would be pretty fluffy, but what about a peice of fabric with the Chaos star on it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imperialis_Dominatus Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 As I put my Icons on my squad leaders, whatever serves as their back banner counts as the Icon. They are the focus of the faith the squad has in its deity(ies). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kadaeux Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 I randomise mine, for some its the banner from the box, for others I get creative up to and including making new ones from GS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drudge Dreadnought Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 There is an argument for using the standard box banner every time. It ensures that your opponent knows what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davethebear Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 what about drums? like from the fantasy orcs command sprue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron-Daemon Forge Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 The Deflier will look cool. Also other thing (some already said) - Chaos Marauder Drum's - Marauder Horse men Icon/standard of a chaos undivided icon - Space Marine tacticl squad banner I'd also have a look that Chrsitain Bryne Black Legion force for idea as he use some cool Icon on his chaos marine. Also have a look that some of the Mordheim range for some chaotic looking banner/icon's. IP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minigun762 Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 To add to IP's good ideas, I think you could do some interesting things with the cloaks from the fantasy range. Inscribe the appropriate symbol (Eye of Horus, 8 pointed star, generic daemon face) onto the back of it and looks like an Icon to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
