Brother Nathan Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 Hellow all. Im currently going back over my storm angels and adding company markings and the squad markings too. Problem is what to do with the kneeless models? they just dont seem to be a proper part of the unit without it. Currently doing 3rd squad and the only option ive really came up with is to paint a yellow drop on his shins. so my question to you is what are you doing as i dont really see an answer in the codex...

Dexo Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 see page 73 in the codex, the assault marine far right :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/207255-knee-markings/#findComment-2472032 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Nathan Posted July 26, 2010 Author Share Posted July 26, 2010 i did see that but i dont really like it, kinds undoes the whole point of kneepadless by painting on knees...

Haunter! Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 You could do the markings down the side of the greave. Aside from that I can't think of anything. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/207255-knee-markings/#findComment-2473051 Share on other sites More sharing options...

lounahtic Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 or you can put knee pads on them... make a mold of a dude with knee pad... press it on the dude w/o... clean up the mess... it's not as hard as you might think... this is how i actually put squad markings on my dudes... cuz there's no way in hell i can draw a skull on their knees... so i just took a mold of an old DC dude, he had a skull on his knee... and i press that on to all the other guys... for squad 1 and 2... also there's a guy w/ a blood droplet on the new DC dude... and that'll take care of 3 and 4...

Angelus Mortifer Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 If you can manage to grab certain packs of the old BA transfer sheets (usually eBay), some of them have black and yellow circles for vehicle markings. It makes for a really simple way of getting a squad marking on a "knee-less" leg, and you can either apply another transfer over the top or simply freehand the symbol. I use this for my rank and file as it saves having to get a perfect circle. http://i741.photobucket.com/albums/xx54/SebJones_photos/Blood%20Angels/AS2nd2.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/207255-knee-markings/#findComment-2474273 Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronKobra Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 Oh thats not a bad idea...and seeing it on some very nice assault marines makes it more convincing! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/207255-knee-markings/#findComment-2474668 Share on other sites More sharing options...
douchie Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 I did the same as Angelus Mortifer, see below http://i153.photobucket.com/albums/s232/Douchie101/DSCF2069-1.jpg I had toyed with doing the whole front plate as the squad marking, but in the end bottled it Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/207255-knee-markings/#findComment-2474692 Share on other sites More sharing options...
