Cadmus Tyro Posted June 21, 2017 Author Share Posted June 21, 2017 Bit of a distracting side project before I get into more painting! I've always wanted to use a standard bearer, but they have never really seemed worth their points....until now. Here's my flesh tearers ancient: Still not sure about the head, it's not glued on yet! He also needs a banner, several chains and as many purity seals as I can get away with/find in my bits box. Does he look "ancient" enough?

Arkhanist Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 It's a great pose, but if you're planning on a hanging a banner from that crosspiece, he's going to be staring right at the back of it :) Cadmus Tyro 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cadmus Tyro Posted June 21, 2017 Author Share Posted June 21, 2017 It's a great pose, but if you're planning on a hanging a banner from that crosspiece, he's going to be staring right at the back of it :) Yeah, that's why I can't decide on the head position (and haven't glued it yet), it looks like a natural position, almost like he's presenting the standard and ensuring it is in position, almost admiring it....I don't know l, perhaps he should be looking he other way! Â I'll hang the banner and post a few head positions to get some opinions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Father Mapple Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Just make the banner two sided. It's for inspiring the troops he leads and warning the enemies. Â Great build! Cadmus Tyro 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice idea, not sure I can face freehand painting both sides though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkhanist Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 As you say, hang a banner mockup first so you can play with head positioning so it feels right to you- it is art after all, not science! You can keep his focus on the pole, but tilt the head back a touch so he's looking more at the aquila - the glory of the emperor etc. Of if the banner is short enough, he could be looking just under it with a small tilt down. You can always leave gluing the head until he's painted! Cadmus Tyro 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cadmus Tyro Posted July 15, 2017 Author Share Posted July 15, 2017 So, almost finished my company ancient, still can't decide if the head position is right? Spagunk, LutherMax, Damon Nightman and 1 other 4 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
