Yeah, I saw those in white dwarf. I wasn\'t sure and I certainly wouldn\'t buy them. Although, surely for GW that isn\'t a bad price?

 

[Drake Farstrider]

I can see 100\'s of uses for those and I don\'t play 40k. Not a horrible price either.

 

[krom1415]

Yup, all been said, I do like brass etched bits, I\'ve got some leaves, ferns etc ordered, just to give my bases a boost

 

[Ritual]

Actually, £8 for those IS pretty expensive! Most other places that sell brass etched stuff charge £4-6 for sheets of that size. So, you\'ll pay about £3 extra for the GW imagery!

 

[Drake Farstrider]

Oh I must of missed the pound sign there. I thought it said $8. So it is a little more horrible than I thought.

 

[Ebonbuddha]

Ok. Thanks. I was also wondering if any of you used them and can yea or nay about them.

Where do you get eh brass etching leaves and such?

It is fabulous, but not cheap I used some on Lord Castor of Kislev. Hasslefree do some good brass etched barbed wire I believe.

 

[generulpoleaxe]

hasslefree do different sheets of plants/leaves as well.

True. For example, decking out a fascist army with eagle emblems for that extra \'something\' when you crush the revolutionists under your heel. Every regime should have some! lol

Any other examples?

 

[finn17]

They look pretty cool to me...

..and I generally don\'t like GW stuff

Watch out you puny revolutionaries...!!!

 

[supervike]

And if you don\'t like them once you get them you can melt them into Brass Knuckles.

Now thats versatility!

 

[Torn blue sky]

And how! I smelted mine into shiruken! :]

 

[finn17]

Yeah....

Don\'t try doing that directly onto your knuckles though...it stings...

 

[philologus]

AW CRAP! Some dude in a red shirt told me they were for branding. You\'re not supposed to heat them and apply to your skin as an emblem of your loyalty to the imperium/GW?

 

[Torn blue sky]

Sh!t!!!...Aw, too late.
Anyone got a spatula?
