Jorre Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 If there is one thing I have noticed about the new BA models that didn't initially bother me, But does bother me a whole lot now. It has got to be all the Purity seals and Parchment all over the models. The purity seals are bad because every time you use the same arm or leg or what ever they always have to be in the same spot. Alot of them are really had to remove due to positioning too. The parchment or mini banners all over the models shoulders, chests, backpacks, bolt pistols, chainswords and any other spot they can find to put it doesn't really look to bad although I still think they went over board with them. The MAJOR problem I have with this is finding the inspiration for something to write on them. I like to keep anything I put on them simple and easy because it really isnt easy to write on the little scrolly things in the first place and keeping letters uniform in size and shape is difficult for someone with my painting skills. Words I commonly use are Baal, Wrath, Faith, Fury, Purity, Honour. But its going to look silly if I write the same 5 words on every dude in my army. So anyone more creative than myself please give me suggestions for my scrolly things. Obviously it needs to be in character for a Blood Angel and be as short a word as possible between 4-6 characters is ideal, I guess longer words can go on tanks and dreadnaughts.

Lestat Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 How about simple things like names for the models themselves. Or maybe battle honours - i.e. famous battles or planets they fought on.

The idea actually came to me because I am working on a DC dreadnought converted from the Ironclad kit. On the legs and shoulder parts there are names of planets and such which the dread has fought on - a kind of walking monument to it's own battle honours.
