Bung Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 https://imgur.com/a/3Ta6bEi Conversion for Marduk Sedras's "Death of Worlds". It's comically large basically but the description says that it is, however the question remains: Does/would this conversion pull you out of the game? Lemme know what you think! Also it has to be cleaned up at the bottom still to look flush. If you Like it, its ok. For myself it would be to chaotic in style. Personly i would use the same size and do my own blade like some animeswords. Aztek 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Added a longer handle. Cut the length down some, although debatably it could come down a little more. Happier with it, but am very curious what ya'll think.

sarabando Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 (edited) adding some rapiers to my fists going for a late war martian defense force. So heres the crew so far, I think the umbra bolters do a lot to help make Mk7 marines look more "heresy" imo.

WrathOfTheLion Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 (edited) The purity seals break it slightly for me, although I know those molded ones can be a real pain to get off. I'd've tried to take the wax off though to make it look more like a pinned oath of the moment.Other than that, looks real good. I really do think the umbras help a lot with that, makes it look like they have a different context.

Pacific81 Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 Yes they are difficult to remove, although not impossible (with a very sharp knife!) I think having these at the defence of Terra makes it more acceptable though (along with the mk7 armour) as everything was going to the dogs at that point.

The Scorpion Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 The purity seals break it slightly for me, although I know those molded ones can be a real pain to get off.

I really do think the umbras help a lot with that, makes it look like they have a different context. I'd paint the wax purple, or the same color as the paper, to try and make them look like an Oath of Moment.

Corswain Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 Yeah, I always just say that they're an Oath of Moment. Not a big enough detail to get too hung up on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkimaskMohawk Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 The only thing for rapier crew is they don't actually have bolters lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron Hands Fanatic Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 Just a heads up that the Emperor's Children art from Book 1: Betrayal shows Oaths of Moment (explicitly described as such) attached with the wax seals, so you're entirely fine leaving them intact: Dr_Ruminahui, WrathOfTheLion, Hungry Nostraman Lizard and 2 others 5 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarabando Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 Yeah I've always used purity seals as oaths, as for the rapier teams not having bolters it's no Biggie as I don't really play I just paint. WrathOfTheLion 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WrathOfTheLion Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 (edited) Makes sense, looks great. It doesn't bother me really. Have Monday off for holiday in the US, so hoping to get some work done on my SW legion. I've started on a half squad of MK III to be Grey Slayers, and will try to also start the actual Grey Slayer kit I have basecoated and ready Edited September 4, 2020 by WrathOfTheLion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mogsam Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 Just got some from friendly online retailer. But they were out of stock for ages I found one site with them in stock, they wanted £32 posted, which means that it's genuinely cheaper to buy from GW. An experience I'm not used too!
