Maneater Standard Bearer

I decided that the maneater sniper unit is going to need a standard bearer so I can take the flaming banner.  A huge flag would look rather stupid so after talking it over with some friends (sorry I don't remember who made the original sign suggestion) I decided on a little wooden sign.

I bought a pack of "craft sticks" from target and got to cutting.



Eventually I decided on the following pieces to make my sign.



It looked a bit too big so I got out some models and eventually had to cut it down a little to get the scale just right.



After some practice on scrap pieces, (I knew I would only get 1 try at this or else I would have to rebuild it) I got to painting.



AAAAAANNNNDDDDD finally, the finished model.
