adreal Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Hey guys, so i have into possession of a vulkan second hand, not sure if recast or not, but was cheap and i thought, eh why not try to build a alpharius out of him. So i have given him a new right arm (deathwing assault cannon arm, assault cannon replaced by two plasma guns) and green stuffed some scales onto most armour plates, but his left arm (where vulkans flamer thibgo is) is where i shall put the pale spear. But i am stumped as to what i can use for the spear that would work scale wise. I tried a halberd from grey knight, but its too small. Any ideas guys?? (Will post pics when not on my phone, im pretty happy with the model, even if its not the best job that could be done, its as good as i can do) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/327258-what-to-do-for-alpharius-pale-spear/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Son of Carnelian Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 I've seen folks have great success using the spears from the Triarch Praetorians/Lychguard kit as a base (especially since the Pale Spear is heavily implied to have Necron origins). Take a look at those, see if they work for you.

Aramis K Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 I'm thinking of trying the deathwatch necron sword mounted on the haft of one of the Deathwatch giant thunder hammers. Becomes more of a halbard. That's a two hand grip though so I was thinking about wrist or even shoulder mounted plasma blaster. Anyway, the DW necron sword seems good mix of alien and imperial tech and large blade for Primarch scale.

Dantay VI Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Hmmm, I was going to sugest someting like Asterion Molocs spear, but the other ideas seem pretty cool too.

Robzilla Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Spear from one of the stormcast eternal paladins maybe? Not sure on the scale though...

IronDrake28 Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Are you going to make it a twin-blade, like on the cover of Praetorian of Dorn?

adreal Posted October 26, 2016 Author Share Posted October 26, 2016 Are you going to make it a twin-blade, like on the cover of Praetorian of Dorn? Having not looked closely at PoD, and having not read it i did not realise that it was a twin bladed weapon. Depends on what weapon i end up going with, but a twin blade might be cool Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/327258-what-to-do-for-alpharius-pale-spear/#findComment-4545314 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Memento Of Prospero Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 It's too large. The pale spear is actually his field Ration spork. A Power spork.
