Tiger Stripes!

An image of the triangles at full size


The banner after it has been trimmed



Just a quick one for you tonight. The images above show how I am getting on with my local GW stores Games Day banner. So far I have worked out the sizes, cut the cloth using a template for the black tringles and pinned them together. As you can see i made the triangles all the same size but a little too large for the orange background, this enabled me to position and cut the black to size maing it easier to get it right.

The next step will be to make the blue shield and white imperial wings shown on my previous post below). I am thinking of having these printed onto a banner and then cutting them out this will make them look more effective and will be much quicker than trying to make them out of material.

As I move on with the project I will keep you updated. If you have any comments please dont be shy.

For the Emperor!

As I’m about to undertake the task of creating the 2009 banner for Hulls GW Store I thought I might as well make one for the club as well. Hulls Angels is a club I have been running on and off for 3 years now. I’m determined to get a faithful following for the club and the new manager at GW Hull is really encouraging it, go team! I’m intending to run the club every 2 weeks for the foreseeable future and we’ll see where it goes from there.
One of the major job is to get a good corporate image for the club. I have had the imagery aid down for some time but a banner would be a great addition. The banner will be a Space Marine Company design and will be full size, the image above shows how it will look. I intend to make it as realistic as possible with metallic colours and as many additions as possible. I’m even looking into making my own red wax stamp so that I can make real Purity seals.
