Unit 1:
Photon-thruster upgrade. |
Unit 2:
Heavy chainweapon upgrades! |
Oh, don't worry, the rims on the bases have been cleaned up since the photos were taken..
Since I have hade a question or two about how the swords were made, I will do a quick write-up with the few photos I took while working on them.
Started off with procuring a few chainswords from the GW Chaos Raptor/Warp Talon kit with a plan to apply them to the lightning guns the Thallax carry.
Enter a tad chronological gap. We jump ahead to where the swords have been separated from the hilts and the front of the lightning guns have been flattened off, leaving a surface to attach them like bayonettes. On the photo below they are dryfitted with blu-tac.
Two holes were drilled at either end, as shown where the guitarr string attaches to the gun. This also gives a clue to the metal bit used for the cable. Bent to shape and glued in place.
Gun was later straightened. |
The end of the gun was planed off to provide a place for the lightning gun bayonette to attatch.
And here we go. All three of them given the same treatment.
Epoxy putty, primer and paint do cover quite a lot of sins ;)
