Nathan Bishop: The moment I saw the plastic standard on the plastic Warhammer Empire General's sprue, I knew I would be incorporating it into my Dark Angels army. However, Dark Angels use sword iconography, not hammers. So, the first thing I did was set about converting the Angel of Death on this standard to hold a sword. I very carefully (and I stress very carefully ) used clippers and a hobby knife to removed the bits of the hammer. This step is a difficult one, as you do not want to accidentally cut away the other parts of the banner. Once removed, I used Green Stuff to sculpt the sword held by the Angel of Death. After this dried, I used files to get the shape exactly right.

I used a brass rod for the banner pole. After drilling a hole through a Terminator Power Fist, I attached the banner with super glue to the fist. I also added the bottom parts of two Black Templar tabards to the front and back of the Terminator. On the back tabard, I sculpted purity seals to covers the area where I had attached it to the model.
