LardO'Blood Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 Okay, so I really want to build a Dark Angles company master with just a power sword/relic blade when I'm using C:SM (the reason just a power sword is because I mostly play small games, I want to stay cheap). So I want the sword to be two handed, preferably over his head. These are my options as I see it. What do you think the best choice is? Or do you have better suggestions? Convert Korsarro Convert the vanguard veteran with relic blade Convert Ezekiel Convert Astaroth Convert Gabriel Seth Sculpt a model (I have never used green stuff though) Make from various plastic bits (I was thinking of using the sanguinary guard with double handed power axe thing and converting it to a sword) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/215727-two-handed-power-swords/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
nurglez Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 the blood angel sanguinary guard or what ever they are called have 2 handed weapons, I'm sure if you looked ona bit site you could find some, I'm sure some of them hold it in a 2 handed grip.

BrotherZaah Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 All the metals models you mentioned except the vanguard sarg will require you to be some form of sculpting genius. I strongly recommend the vanguard sarg as his arms are seperate to the body and thus can be put onto any torso you desire. They're also far far far more pose-able than anything else. Also in his favour is that his sword is bad ass and requires no modification.

JamesI Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 I did a modification with the Astorath the Grim model, removing the axe and putting in one of the power swords from the Sanguinary Guard box. Wasn't too hard to do. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/215727-two-handed-power-swords/#findComment-2570975 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonaides Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 Or get the arms from the Death Company that are holding the Thunder Hammer - one weapon swap later and job done...

ImperialReaper Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 Well Astorath and Gabriel Seth would not fit to well I guess. Astorath has an axe and as I understand you specificly want a sword. He also look pretty not dark angel like with his bloodveine armor. Seth is a pretty cool model - as far as the body goes. If you paint the wings white they would also fit the dark angel fluff I guess. Problem is he definitely wears a chainsword. JamesI is right about the blades of the Sanguinary Guard - but looking at the pictures I guess Gabriels hands are way to far apart to fit the short grip of the guards swords in. PS: Just found this one while comparing the pictures: maybe it is an inspiration ^^ http://www.lounge.belloflostsouls.net/photopost/data/578/DSC00974.JPG Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/215727-two-handed-power-swords/#findComment-2571481 Share on other sites More sharing options...
LardO'Blood Posted November 24, 2010 Author Share Posted November 24, 2010 Thanks for all the comments guys. The idea I have currently is to use the vanguard veteran arms and weapon then apply DA shoulder pads and body. I will check out the DC sprue and the SG sprue.

An over-the-head pose wouldn't be difficult. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/215727-two-handed-power-swords/#findComment-2571684 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irabrai Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 Hahaha. Finally found it. Created + Painted by a friend of mine - SideshowScott on this forum. Its (one) of his captains, and has a relic blade and jump pack, but it has the vanguard Sergeants power sword as suggested by LardO'Blood: http://a.imageshack.us/img441/8213/036kx.jpg *edit* picture didnt work, put as a link instead *edit* Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/215727-two-handed-power-swords/#findComment-2574744 Share on other sites More sharing options...
