Arkangilos Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 So I have started GMing a game game of Black Crusade, and I have several friends who are involved. One of them is a Renegade Sniper, he has been using one of my sniper models, one of them is a Chosen, he has his own model that he uses for it, and one of them is a Sorcerer, who has been borrowing one of my Grey Knights (it was the closest model we had to a psychic unit with a scythe). Now, I want to create a specific sorcerer for him to use, but I don't know what to do it with. He is a Sorcerer, so I will probably use a Librarian or convert a space marine to look Sorcerer like, but he is armed with a Force Scythe, and I can't think of anything to use to make the scythe. So, do any of you have some ideas of how to make a cool sorcerer using either a Librarian or a standard Space Marine body? I have various bits and bits that I don't have I can acquire. Where would I get a scythe? What looks do you prefer? What pieces do you prefer? I don't want it to have a 1k Sons look to it, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kol Saresk Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Not sure about the model itself, but Typhus and the WHF Nurgle Champions come with scythes. Or if you have a hormagaunt sword arm hanging around you could probably kitbash that with a spare staff and make a scythe that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Centurion Tom Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 I'm going to building a sorcerer from Sevrin Loth, however I was given him by a friend and he is quite an expensive (but cool) kit. I will be using chaos backpack (the serpanty one) staff and some green stuff robes to make him look less like a loyalist librarian. You may also want to consider removing the psychic hood as a sorcerer probably wouldn't have one although it probably wouldn't be to hard to think up a reason for him having one. There's a scyth in the empire wizard set but it's a bit fin and has fancy flowers on it. May not be the look your going for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Willy Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 I once made a scythe using spawn spikes some a curved so look good when glued to a staff making it look mutated rather then forged use a little green to fix up gaps and make the staff look more organic.

Kizzdougs Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 The zombie kit has several scythes in it and i think the Flagellant one might as well. The Empire wizard has a Scythe too. Personally i would go for one of the scythes from the new Black Knight/Hexwraith kit. Also, is the Sorcerer going to be wearing power armour? If not i would suggest using a Chaos Sorcerer from WHFB or one of the new Vampire Counts Necromancer as the base for the conversion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkangilos Posted February 20, 2012 Author Share Posted February 20, 2012 Thanks for all the replies! I am going to take a look at what I have soon and weigh in these options! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hushrong Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I used the Empire Wizard scythe for a Termie Chaplain I made. I left these flower things on them (fluff-reasons) but with some work you could make them disappear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Nihm Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 An easy way to capture 'the sorceror' look is to use a robed body from the Dark Angels kit. Maybe add some bits and bobs. example Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
