The tents are an insanely great idea. I can do Dyatlov Pass inspired Objective Markers. That is amazing, thank you for posting.

A long time i found out what solvents do to plastic models.
In the specific case a jump pack, which looked like hit by a melter.
My primary army are Dark Angels, so I made this objective marker with it.

Sad to see you bowing out mate. Thanks for making dakka all the more awesome with your unique objectivey goodness.

Good times were had and I know my objective marker collection was mightily improved with your encouragement and inspiration (and some of your bits in fact)

Hope to see you round on dakka again sometime soon.

i can fully understand that you´ve reached a point where you don´t want to do yet another object marker...

but since you and all the others who showed off here made so much inspirational stuff here... i think it should not get forgotten due to time...
so i think it would be nice if you could maybe put everything up into an article?...those show up fairly often on the homepage of dakka and also can be looked after as research material...


cheers, vik

I hope I'm not digging a topic too old So many wonderful ideas here so I didn't want to start a new topic just to post one picture.

Recently I thought about some custom objective markers. I got Munitorum containers set and it's got a ton of barrels and crates. I took 6 bigger crates to make simple objective markers. I know it may be considered low effort, but it's my first attempt at this. I haven't considered basing them, as I don't have bases large enough, but maybe will do it in future.

Good to see an update here on this thread...

Very crisp looking boxes...i like that idea to use them as numbered objective markers!

Brother Chris, they look great. Just clean and simple, no need to base those at all really. They'll suit any table top and can be set on buildings or whatever terrain pieces to might be playing with. Top job and thanks for keeping the lights on in the objective markers thread.

Total shameless bump because this is still a huge resource for anyone thinking about a set of objective markers for any kind of game.

I'll post my first ever marker made waaaay back I the days of original Necromunda when they released the Outlanders expansion. I used this to mark where a Tox Bomb landed.

Pretty basic stuff.

anyway, if you have any objective markers of your own to share or just want to comment on all that's on display here let's keep the thread alive.

Frostgrave treasure markers

Of couse what is valuable to some, is not so valuable to others... *EDIT* the quality doesn't look great here for some reason. That's a chest full of feather, and another full of fish.

WIP Elf objectives

And Ratkin/Skaven objectives
And finally

A WIP Forest goblin objective, along with my old Eldar 'Fortune' Marker. Just because.

Still alive and kicking,Back to painting a little however mostly post apocalyptic RC Trucks,may produce some more objective marker sets in the future as i said before,its not impossible.

But for now a 1/10 Scale German Field Tool Shop,An obviously juicy Objective and Terrain piece for smaller bolt action like games.







Nice to be Back! Some Sweet looking Crates above,and one tiny doggy very nice,cool tox bomb crowe

Some very nice tools. 1/10 German eh? Nice to see a bit more historical gaming on the go. All my effort as of late has been 1/300 WW2. Branching out from aircraft into something a bit different. I'll definitely drop some on here when they're done.

post apocalyptic RC Trucks! I didn't even know that was a thing. Amazing! Sounds a bit Robot Wars!

Always Looking forward to more objectives of you do get round to some. Good to hear from you again.

Back with another batch of objectives. This time I'm thinking more of a D&D style kind of thing. Bonus counters more than objective markers really.


Here we have some bonus equipment options, sword & shield, armour, Bow and arrows. Some magical items, magic missile, spell scroll, wierd talking puddle of goop. Then a bit more generic Treasure and a mysterious bag! Very handy.

So it turns out I have Plenty to work with. To the point where I'm drawing up designs for no less than seven balsa wood furniture pieces upon which to mount my selection of weapons!

Well I knocked that idea on the head but I've finally gotten around to building at least one big one of these.



Not sure if I should hit the whole thing with primer and just paint it all or if I should just do the individual weapons so I can just stain the wood.
I'll prob just reach for the rattle-can.

Another WIP



Currently stalled while I await a proper base.

Never quite done with objective markers, so here we have some 6mm WW2 water objectives for air rescue games.

First up its this guy.

But who is he? A downed airman, a sailor, an enemy combatant, a VIP? Whoever he is it looks like he needs a lift.

Or how about these guys?

A downed bomber crew, a squad of commandos returning from a daring raid with war winning intelligence. Drop a seaplane down to pick those boys up and try not to get shot down by that enemy patrol coming in from the west.

Or this downed seaplane.

Perhaps the pilot has taken on too many men from the water and can't take off again. Taxi over to rendezvous with a waiting sub while the air battle rages overhead.

These torpedoes can be used by the enemy planes attacking the sub if they can get a shot off before they're intercepted.

Lots of options for low level air combat gaming.

Great thread, love everything I've seen. I'm a huge fan of personalized objective markers even though I only own a few. Below are my favorite, despite them not being fully painted. You get the idea though.

Our Necromunda gaming group just a gaming day and holiday gift exchange for which each of us had to make two objective markers for two randomized people.

First, two completely scratchbuilt mini dioramas:

Grillin', with ribs, steak, Sierra Nevada and Coors beers


Beerfest, with sausages, cheese, bread, a pretzel and a of course a large beer


Comm station


Of course there had to be a Baby Yoda...


Malekith and friends


My old school Cawdor shrine. Did not finish the tops of the torches...




The request for this one was "Trash, more trash, quality trash and rubbish".
Started with an Armorcast dumpster and added a bunch of stuff.
