Everybody loves banners for their units, but sometimes you have to convert them from existing infantry figures. In this case, I needed the "on foot" version of my Easterling Kataphract standard bearer... since you can be knocked off your horse in LOTR.
The process was very simple, taking a piece of heavy paper, soaking it in a glue/water mix, then shaping it, and gluing it to a plastic rod.
I never really liked the solid metal banner figures, and this was a great opportunity to make something unique and useful!
