Callidan Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 Hey all I was wondering what everyone uses for there Infernal Standard? I had the old Wight King that carried the Standard but it seems like I have lost it some how. I have been looking at some of the GWs miniatures like the dark elf executioners wondering if it would work with skeleton parts. Any suggestions?

discoking Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 The current plastic Wight King with sword and shield could work.Just cut the sword off and have him holding a standard at an angle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoffeeGrunt Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 I put the Black Knight banner piece on the Wight King model for one, and my mounted Wight King has a Grave Guard banner with random evil looking symbols drawn all over it.

Solaris Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 Problem is that due to the wording, you have to choose between the shield and the banner. Converting the currently WK model to replace the shield with a banner looks tricky. I would probably place a converted Grave Guard banner behind or beside him on the base, like he has run it into the ground and is challenging the enemy with his sword.

Hans Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 I use the grave guard banner for now, both on my mounted and on foot wight King, banner not fix, and I don't usually play both of them together. banner has a insignia of my army logo.

hobgoblinclub Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 It's the obvious choice, but you should try to get hold of the Forge World model. It's gone from the site now I think, though I'm told some of the old stuff may be returning. Until then, your best bet would be eBay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callidan Posted November 22, 2016 Author Share Posted November 22, 2016 Thanks for the replys. Man I would love to get a hold of that model. Probably cost an arm and a leg if I could find one. Last time I was on there there wasn't much that was good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solaris Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 I've been trying to get a hold of it for ages, no luck :'( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been in touch with FW about older models before and they assure me that 'The moulds need retooling from time to time'. I was told that the verminlord would definitely be back, so there's hope for the wight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoffeeGrunt Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 I wouldn't hold your breath, there's plenty of models that have been OoP for decades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FW definitely seem to have plans to bring stuff back. It may well be there's no set plan though, and individual models are more of a 'might come back' thing.

CoffeeGrunt Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 I have never seen a model "came back" from being Forge World OoP, though. There's no precedent for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hobgoblinclub Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 True. I emailed them a couple of months back about the verminlord though and they said it would return. Sadly, I've deleted the email, but it was real, honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Alec Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 I use the old Vampire BSB model. Made it back when vampires could hold banners. Solid model, but costs two arms and three legs now. You could go for an old Grave Guard banner bearer, they've much cheaper and still OK models. The current plastic Wight King isn't too hard to convert, really. Much simple than it would have been in the old days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alizarium Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 I converted a Lord Relictor SCE medel. Just replaced the warhammer with a 40k power sword that I weathered. Also, scraped off the sigmar symbols and cut off the candles. It worked really well and did not take long. can post a picture if anyone wants.

ernestern Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 I took a Wight King, cut him in half and mounted him to some Vampire's Nightmare Steep and stole the banner from the Freeguild General set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AverageBoss Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Back in 7e, I bought a Witch King on foot from the LotR line. He had this cool pose were he was mid stride and unsheathing his sword at the waist. I then cobbled together a banner out of some spare parts I had left over and planted it in the base, to make it look like he had just planted it in the ground and was moving into combat.
