Subject: Re:Warhammer Fantasy Inn - Names and signage
Strangely I've been listening to the audio book of Trollslayer. Doesn't mention the Standing Stones Inn in part 1. Must be an abridged version I got from Audible. Also read some of the 'slayer series by William KIng back at the turn of the century...
I think I might go with The Orcs Head or something like it, it'll be nice and easy to stick an Orcs head on the end of the beam the sign will be suspended on, and just as easy to come up with/find some artwork for the sign itself (I'm no good at painting stuff freehand).
Maybe The Greasy Goblin.
Dunno...
EDIT: Having thought about this a bit more just now I'm wondering if The Wolf's Head Inn would be a good one to go with, and if 40k Space Wolves stuff, like the Wolf head helmets, or the heads on the backpacks, would look out of place on the Inn I'm building, in various places as decoration, like on the bottom of each corner of the top floor where it overhangs the lower levels...
Or would that look a bit too Norse?
Ulric is still the main god in alot of the Empire so Wolf themed decoration is not unusual.

Just need to find some suitable iconography for the sign now then, shouldn't be too difficult, I'm sure there's something in old White Dwarf issues I can borrow.
Maybe even a Space Wolf banner, but perhaps that might actually look out of place.
