JayeL Posted November 30, 2010 Share Posted November 30, 2010 I was thinking of doing this also, paint it up and blu-tac it on see what it looks like before gluing. oh, post pics if you decide to go for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Durus Posted November 30, 2010 Share Posted November 30, 2010 It is as practical as capes and jump packs, but don't let that stop you. I think that Icons (the ones that come with the terminators or any of the newer chapter specific sprues) or a bannertop or something like that look nice on top of a jump pack.

Chapter Master Ignis Domus Posted November 30, 2010 Share Posted November 30, 2010 I love putting banners on my jump packs. The model looks excellent and you can stick a drawing of the major kills on it if you want. I highly recommend it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Fury Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 Iv'e done it. I used two tiny magnets, one in the JP and and in the banners base, to magnatize it on. Otherwise they have a tendency to break off, and makes for easy storage. http://i290.photobucket.com/albums/ll275/RedFury77/40k/P1040419.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wiffinberg Posted December 1, 2010 Author Share Posted December 1, 2010 Thanks for the feedback guys, i will post the pics as soon as i have painted the jump pack (the sergent and the banner are already finished) I shal blutac it on first, and looking at Red Fury's awesome work i think i might go for it I also have a chappy with a Jump pack that could use a banner but dont want too put too much "bling" on him Thanks for the feedback guys, i will post the pics as soon as i have painted the jump pack (the sergent and the banner are already finished) I shal blutac it on first, and looking at Red Fury's awesome work i think i might go for it I also have a chappy with a Jump pack that could use a banner but dont want too put too much "bling" on him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wiffinberg Posted December 1, 2010 Author Share Posted December 1, 2010 here is a comparison Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shortsonfire79 Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 Is that your own? Looks nice. I am planning on giving my 2 Vanguard Sergeants w/ packs banners (all my sergeants do) but I was planning on melting the banner around the pole, so it looked as if it was blowing intensely. Also, frayed bottoms would be good too, since assault marines fall from THawks, and jet around everywhere, wind will take its toll on the ends of the banners.

Wiffinberg Posted December 1, 2010 Author Share Posted December 1, 2010 yep thats mine XD after years of no painting its finally finished, i agree with the frayed look, im not very good with manipulating plastic but i have a couple of blank banners that i could try it with. Even a paper/card banner would be easy to mould and fray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shortsonfire79 Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 Plasticard banners are easy to bend. I bend mine over a electric stove. Its very simple, just watch your finger tips. I assume I'd do the same with backpack banners, since they're already modeled a bit, but be careful not to bend the stick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
