Crimson Lily Standard Bearer
Well, this turned out 100x better than I could have hoped. It may be interesting to note that, other than a few simple head swaps, this is the only conversion I did in the entire squad. Luckily, one of the arms with a storm bolter was positioned perfectly so that all I had to do was move it out away from the body to make room for the banner. Speaking of the banner, I once again constructed it out of an empty toothpaste tube. Please note that the image on the standard is not of my own design. A Google search for "Bouguereau" should give you the original image. All I really did was sketch it onto the banner and then paint it as close to the original as possible. This may lower your opinion of the piece, but I feel it is necessary to give credit where credit is due.
