Today i will be looking at Golden demon 1988's standard bearer category.
1st place went to Hew Bowles with this awesome beastman type thing! (i love how the olsd minis are sometimes unrecognisable! I love the face on the banner, and i also love those mushrooms! Old skool fantasy for the win!
Next up is this Dwarf banner bearer by D.P.Pearson, Looks like hes showing for Bugmans! (do they or did they ever have their own army?) it APPEARS to be a winged pair of hands and feet with a triangular face? sitting on a barrel! completely bizzare! i like it!
Third place is R.Leinham's Goblin? bearer, now, is that a shoulder or does it have two heads? i had to look twice!
I cant believe the mini is that old! I assume its from the Alaitoc Craftworld, but i cant be sure. I love that urban base! who's hand is that poking out i wonder?
What do you think of these? would they hold up nowadays?

The Eldar Dreadnought (Wraithlord) shown is mine. I think I got the honourable mention because I was only 17 at the time and would have been eligible for the YoungBloods competition had I been a month younger. For the "junk" base, I wanted to recreate the landscape from The Terminator and is just lots of plastic from various kits/models glued on there: skeletons, daleks, cars, tanks (including a 20mm scale WW2 tank commander in a beret clutching binoculars!) The hand belongs to a plastic space marine.
