I liked the Sanguinius tears. They are the more BA ones...
The first with the Heretic and the Alpha Legionnaire I would expect to see it as a Wolf banner with the blood feud and all...
The thirs is nice but the swords remind me a lot of DA...

In terms of the banner, I prefer the Tears of Sanguinius one, however, I'm not the biggest fan of the name, it just doesn't seem very Marine-like...
Keep us posted with pictures of the one you choose to paint!

Time, that is my big give to new painters, take your time, don't rush it, make sure you water your paints, don't use globs. 3 layers of progressive shading looks 10x better than 1 layer of chunky paint(in most cases). With banners Paint the details *IE the fore ground* then paint the background around it. That way if oyu spill over edges they can be covered up in final stage.
Sorry to be off-topic but how do you display images as thumbnails?
