daemonclaw Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 hey all here is a little project i put together as an objective marker as i dont think the armies of 40k would care too much about rescuing my usual marker pot of devlan mud :lol: so i came upwith the fallen icon bearer ,wounded ammo less but holding out with his last grenade till assistance arrives to take the sacred icon. http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y30/daemonclaw/DSCN5588.jpg http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y30/daemonclaw/DSCN5587.jpg cheers for looking D ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/193611-objective-marker/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typewriter Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 Nice! Quite inventive, I like it. Just one thing: Isn't a removed CSM helmet supposed to not have the ringed neck-part left?

jester_prince Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 Hmmmm I get the feeling you may be right about them comming to get the icon, i get the feeling that the guy is done for even if help arrives. Still I love it its got charecter, tells a story just by looking at it and unless your models are desperate for a wash... a hundred times cooler then a pot of devlan mud. Tho just one comment, can you move the icon to the floor, it would make it look likes hes wounded and losing his strength.

tombo Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 Very nicely arranged, good job! I think the standard being in the air is quite a positive thing as when standards were taken into battle they were never supposed to touch the floor. @Typewriter - The ring around the neck is the helmet seal I think so it is a part of the cuirass and not of the helmet Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/193611-objective-marker/#findComment-2300200 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Alucard Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 I would gladly rush to reach that objective, but only to kill the traitor holding it. Very nice, look forward to the paint job Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/193611-objective-marker/#findComment-2300202 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vulkan454 Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 Very nice, but as jester_prince said it should be lower to the floor. Also you should make it look like it is only the top half of the banner, so it has snapped off. Looking forward to see some paint on it.

Gavin Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Traditionally it was the banner itself, not the post/stick/pole it was attached to that was not supposed to touch the ground in combat, as it was considered an unspeakable offense/ the ultimate disgrace, so the butt end of the pole would be allowed to touch the ground, however not the cloth of the banner itself. It looks good though, and i'd have to agree with Brother Alucard. The reason I'd race for the objective is to illuminate the traitor of his folly filled ways.
