now i am just curiouse about this but what is everyones favorite symbol. Could be a Hold standard to the ancestor face on grudge lore. I am considerring getting a Dawi inspired Tatoo on my left shoulder and i have yet to find the perfect one.

Before anyone asks i do have tatoos lol and fully understand they do not come off.

i am really interested to see what everyone come sup with and why it is there favorite.

A few years ago, it was the hammer hitting the anvil. Now I like the ancestor face too. The one on with the big beard!

[the bearded one]

I like the ancestorfaces.

I also like some of the holdsymbols;



The karaz-a-karak symbol is one of my favourites, but the symbols of karak hirn and karak izor are pretty cool too.

Heresy, I know.

I really like the Hammer splitting the anvil...great stuff. But the one I find myself doodling all the time is one that I made up myself....I think...I've used on a couple of my banners and shields....the sun rising over the mountains..as you can see from the last picture its something that I came up with way back in the 1990's...before most of you were born...







Cheers...let us know what you decide on

I like the hammer/anvil symbols, and my personal banner of a silver raven with a black backround.

about 10 years ago i had a tatto on my right shoulder , it is the rune of might , i drew it my self then got a new tattooist who used to be an artist to do it for me
i love it
it looks like my shoulder is made of stone and the rune has been chiseled out of it

i have pictures but not sure how to add them

I love the bottom right one. It has everything. An axe, some fire and even an Ancestor icon.

[gortock grimblade]

i really like the top left one and with that rune idea now in my head i think i will have one or two placed on the shield. It has the ancestor face and everything i really like it.

I use the hammer and anvil symbol for my clan. Somehow I would like to include a bolt of lightning (being Thunderforge) but don't want it looking Chaos Dwarfy.

I also consider the hammer splitting an anvil a Chaos Dwarf glyph; the anvil is a symbol of endurance for us Dawi!

I'm not a lover of the ancestor faces, but I like the fluff behind 'em, dwarves worshiping dwarves. I just find it a bit strange having disembodied heads everywhere.

Other than that, keep it as simple and obvious as possible; an axe; a dragon; a tankard; make it clear by which clan you are about to be killed! :D

You'll have to post a photo of the tat you get done!

[Thunderer]

Yeah I am loving these icons in here. I have a brand new pair of white Vans waiting to get some artwork applied to them. I can tell ya what they will be sporting soon.

@TBO: Where did you find those pics so I can get some more ideas?
