Hi everyone!

I am thinking about getting some of the "etched brass" Space Marine symbols from FW to decorate my E:A and BFG stuff. Can anyone share experience with the brass stuff?
Is it suited for what I am planning to do? Too big/small? Poor quality?

please give me some input!  

cheers,

I think some of the small bits look in good scale and have picked up a bunch of these but not used any as yet.

I've used the photo etched aquilas. They are very nice althugh you need to be a bit careful not to drench them with superglue or primer. Not a big issue though.

I used small Inquisition symbols on my Grey Knight Land Raiders. You have to be a bit careful with them and cut them with a really sharp knife. Other than that, no problem.

Remember that the smallest symbols on the etched brass are still quite big, as you can see:

The etched brass stuff is good. I use Small Imperial Eagles and Renegade Militia symbols (Chaos) for Titans. As they are thin, you can bend them (carefully) to apply them to a curved surface. Like fredmans said, you need to cut them with a very sharp knife.

Yes, cut it out using an X-acto knife with a new blade

Here is an etched brass eagle on this chainsaw:

A few more examples (Please excuse the fairly large pics    )
