Hey gamers, today I want to show off a more OC custom! Firstly, I want to announce that I'll be showcasing several themed customs as part of my "Banished Takeover" campaign! Yep, several upcoming customs will all be from the Banished Faction! They are some very spicy custom minis you wouldn't wanna miss in the coming days/weeks!!! 😎
And starting off this Banished Takeover, is the Brute Honor Guard!
We've all seen what an Elite Honor Guard looks like on the Banished side. But here's my take on what I would imagine a Brute Honor Guard looked like as a Banished unit!
I drew inspiration between a Halo 2 Brute Honor Guard, Halo Wars 2 Brute, and a Banished Elite Honor Guard! Elements of the bare brown fur and familiar honor guard elements from Halo 2, along with the scavenged metallic gray plates and bulky armor from Halo Wars 2.
I sculpted the armor such as the thigh piece, the bulky shoulder, the chest plates, bandolier, and side mounted guards. And kept the samurai-esque helmet design from Halo 2 but with a more banished twist. The Brute Honor Guard is not complete without his holo-flag, so I made that using a paperclip and clear plastic, and painted it red and gave it the Banished symbol. I also painted up a Brute shot to signify he is a captain.
I used Model Masters insignia red and leather brown, Citadel abbadon black and leadbelcher for this figure, topped it off with nuln oil and some black and silver dry brushing.
What do you guys think of my unique take on a Banished Brute Honor Guard? This is just the first of my "Banished Takeover Posts" stay tuned for more awesome Banished customs to come!
