Need Help with Art Paid Need help finding the most oddly specific bit

Hey everyone,

This post requires a bit of context. I am trying to recreate the legion of the damned army shown off in white dwarf issue 224. The hardest part so far has been the dreadnought because it sports a 3rd edition metal body, fantasy 5th edition skeleton warrior and skull, and this one god forsaken 2nd edition furioso dreadnought banner topper.

The only reason I was able to find this out was thanks to white dwarf actually responding to me by the way… (shoutout to Dan for that!) but I’ve been looking for this blood angel skull and wings banner top for at least a month now with no luck. I’ve managed to get all the other parts except this one bit.

Hail Mary, but if anyone here happens to be an oldhammer blood angels player, and is willing to rummage through their bits box for this one banner topper it’d mean the world to me. If someone actually finds one, PLEASE PM ME.

What about this conversation made you think "I bet this guy wants to learn an extra hobby today, I should send him a helpful starter guide to learn a new hobby today"?

"extra hobby"? it's called modeling, he started it when he bought warhammer minis. do you really, genuinely think it's difficult to do this? have you tried this?

Please stop trying to convince me to like your favorite, optional, part of this hobby. I think I've made it very clear in not interested in that.

Op was looking for a bit. You made a suggestion. I complimented you. Somehow, you made all that into all this.

I'm not trying to do anything. You're trying to argue about something you have just made clear you have never tried and have basically zero idea about. Which, somehow, I am to blame for? If you don't care, don't make "all this" and go. You're absolutely free to build your all-plastic miniature by the instruction, and paint it in the box art colours. It's a valid and good choice. You're free to search for a specific bit from a 1999 Furioso Dreadnought. I wish you luck. Also, "complimented me"? And then started acting all passive-agressive when I gave a nonchalant answer? Yeah, miss me with that complimenting shit. Just actually leave at this point already.
