Very cool - Warhammer 40k Objective markers.

I quickly finished them; Grey Primer, 3 lighter shades of drybrush, light black wash, light brown wash. I'll hit them with a clearcoat tonight.

Nice done, looks fine - but - if you play with these often, you can figure out wich one is the four (4 example ;-), itīs the one with the black stripe on the stone on the right upper side.

Except for the red numbers in the center the molds are identical. I've had them for 2+ weeks and cannot identify any of the numbers any time once you place the "?" covers on them. From more than a foot away on the table they are completely indistinguishable from each other when covered, especially when handled and turned just a few degrees.

The developer has done an excellent job making them extremely hard to identify. If you line them up in numerical order and think you might have a way to identify a single one of them - turn them 90 degrees and they look completely different again - a very clever design! A flash photo will make the contrast more evident, but without the flash and placed on the game table under normal lights... no worries!

Note: In the photos above the bases are not in the same order in pic 2 and 3 and the camera was held at a slightly different angle - you can't pick out the "4" from the pile. In fact, the #4 is rotated 90 degrees from photo 2 to photo 3! The numbers are printed at different clock positions within the bases.
