flakm0nkey Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 I get payed this week and ill have some money to spend on myself, so i figured id go ahead and buy my command squad. They wont be here for a week, and it'll take my paints even longer, but i like to be prepared so i dont muck things up when they happen so...... which one of these banners should i use? linkage keep in mind these are done in paint and are not that detailed. They are for a rough outline of what the finished banner will look like on the plastic banner provided in the command squad. thanks in advance brothers! for Dorn FM Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/91740-test-banners/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brent Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 Wow, beautiful work! I'd use the one with the laurel wreath, it says "command squad" a little better than the other. But they're both beautiful. Well done, brother! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/91740-test-banners/#findComment-1054331 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunedon Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 I'd vote for the first one, although the wreath does say "command squad" I find it cluttered as opposed to the first one. They are both nicely done however. - Dunedon Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/91740-test-banners/#findComment-1054335 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darkhorse Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 Go with the wreaths, its definately the one... And while it does have more going on its not cluttered but dynamic. It has enough elements on it to be a banner of purpose. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/91740-test-banners/#findComment-1054387 Share on other sites More sharing options...

flakm0nkey Posted July 14, 2006 Author Share Posted July 14, 2006 thak you brothers for the input, and i appriciate your kind words. i really like the imperial eagle icon on the first banner, but the second banner is a lil more impressive so ill add the eagle to it somewhere... does anyone have any ideas on how i could improve these banners all C&C welcome for Dorn FM Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/91740-test-banners/#findComment-1054424 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shinobi_soldier Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 Yes, deffinently the second one. as for improving it, just make the colour smoother on the model (not hard to do since its in paint, lol) shinobi_soldier Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/91740-test-banners/#findComment-1054493 Share on other sites More sharing options...

mario Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 Left but without the imperial eagle.It's breaking the background. And with the scroll at the bottom doing the same and the tips on the left and right being cut of the whole background is looking rather like some camo pattern. And I would add the tips on the left and right. Probably by making the lightning on top and bottom bigger than the ones on the left and right. Right but change gem (too eldar-y) to something more imperial. You know skull, eagle, fist, bullet, a halo (like iron halo, just in red like the squad marking), crux terminatus. And remove the background or change it to something less attention grabbing. It gets very dominant and fights with the green andm the fist. Paint it in a lighter blue so it doesn't draw that much attention.

ArbitesAugmented Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 I would say that if you want to go with number one, take out the eagle, as it stands out too much. But if you want to go with the second one, take away the lightning star thing in the background, as its not really needed. my two cents :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/91740-test-banners/#findComment-1054723 Share on other sites More sharing options...
