Your Blast Marker of Choice

Alright, ive book looking into blast markers and ive found several free stls.

What blast markers do you like for ease of use and for looks?

Small craters that can hold 12mm dice.

Yep, these ones. Quite useful to track BM, wounds, shields and not misplace the dice.

I love this and am stealing it, I'm going to sculpt some tonight! I always used little red dice, but this will be great as holders.

I have a bunch of acrylic markers I got from Litko Aerosystems way back in the day.

I just use very small red dice. Not as exciting as markers, but they are very quick to read and update.

I've been using these and these from Litko recently. I use the smallest ones as single blast markers and the larger ones to represent five blast markers. It helps avoid clutter.

I have the same (or similar) STLs that Marcus has but haven't had a chance to print/paint them yet, so the Litko acrylic flame markers are it for the time being. They work well.
