Does anyone know of a good source for banners I can print off for my Titans (even 40k-scale ones that I can scale down in Photoshop)?  My Beetlebacks are a little plain and need something to spice them up.

Thanks,
jav98

Something I can hang on a chain around a Warlord's neck or put on a pole on their back.  I know I've seen some excellent banners before, but I just can't seem to find any examples now.

Wait -- here's some:

Something like that, but for Titans.

That's where I got my eldar font for the titan banners. ?They might have some imperial stuff too. ?For my Warlord, I just used some 1/35 scale sci-fi and WWII armor decals

Hope this can help,

Once Tas returns from the seven seas he should be able to send you some as well if you ask nicely.   :;):

This are the banners form the old Reaver boxed set:

Do you have the .zip files of those fonts?  The links in that thread are dead for me.

Nice work, Canucks Fan!  And thanks for the image, BlackLegion.

To all:  I found a pretty good source of banners.  Apparently the Dawn of War game supports custom user-made banners and badges, and there's a ton of those here:

http://wh40k.ei8ht.net/abriael_guard1.htm

Some examples:

               



That's just one page;  click on the links up and down the right and left hand sides of the page for dozens more.  I played with them in Photoshop last night, and was able to get pretty good resolution by setting the pixels-per-inch to 300 and the image height to 300 pixels.  Turns out a pretty nice 1" high banner that can be printed and mounted, although it won't have the look of the Kleenex banner on Canucks Fan's Eldar titan.  I was thinking about burning the edges and poking some holes in the banners after I print them off, for that battle-worn look.

Wow! They even have a bannner for Emperor's Pointy Sticks!  :laugh:

EDIT: Vanvlak, take note. There's a AM banner on the 3rd marine page!
