Just thought I'd get thoughts... make sure you can't mistake these things for anything other than what they are meant to be:



^- That's my head honcho cannoness, sporting some crazy axe/chain monstrosity, along side one of my celestians to see the color scheme I'm using...




^- Another look. She used to be wielding a power weapon and a plasma pistol, if anyone was curious.




^- The normal Veteran Superior Eviscerators that I'm gonna pump out production-style. I know I need to clean it up at the fusion-line buuuuut...




^- There's a shot for size comparison. Fing huge, I'd say!



So yeah, just wanted to get thoughts on these - Any way you'd change them around? Any way you'd do them differently? Thanks for checking them out!

I like the "axe monstrosity." It looks sweet and very original. Definitly ikeep that, but don't copy it. It would look better as a centerpeice, not as a mainstay.

I don't like the extra long double chainsword. To me an eviscerator needs to look heavy ... not just long. I like chainswords back to back, or hit up ork players for the orc chain-choppa. It makes a sweat eviscerator that looks mean and heavy enough to be counting as a pfist. un-chaosified khorne berzerker chain axes would do the trick as well I think, espescially if you made them double bladed to get rid of any doubt they were just a reg close combat weapon.

A friend of mine uses de-chaosified berserker chainswords for his eviscerators and they look pretty good imo:

Hmmm... never seen a chain-choppa before... I may need to check that out. I also dig that they could be bulked out, but at the same time, the SoB Superior models always have the ladies wielding a CCW one-handed, so whatever I give them needs to be believably wield-able in one hand... at least long enough for a "CHARGE!" command (which is what I imagine them saying in that pose :3 ).

Just looking at another chainsword, if I were to throw them back-to-back, it would almost just look like a Sentinel CCW:



... and that looks a little too cheesy, even for me! :3 Not sure... do you have any images of these ork chain-choppas?

These ones? Looking at those, they definitely have some possibility... even back-to-back...

Yup, he uses the second one from the left (not back-to-back, because they're already pretty huge).

I use the chaos chainfist as a Evisorator but i mount it on a staff and i remove all chaos arrows but leaves the deamonic mouths on it.

Yeah... I could see these working, actually! I'd double 'em up - stack 2 axes one on top of the other and put the swords back-to-back, because I like obnoxious-sized weapons that could only be wielded by the zealous worship of the Emperor (I'll have to post my Grey Knight Terminator on here with his Nemesis Force Axe eventually :3 )... but yeah, this is actually a great option that doesn't quite look as 'sterile' as stacking normal chainswords on oneanother. Does he just Xacto knife the chaos crap off, or greenstuff it over or a mix of the two?

^- this guy?

yeah,the chainaxe is very inventive. I have found the gw hobby saw unusually good for a games workshop tool, you may want to try that on the extra long chainswords as it is very precise, with a small strip of plasticard on the back + glue for some added strength to a small amount plastic glue on the blade themselves. using less cement glue will improve the look of the join and leave the heavy lifting, so to speak, to the back reinforcement.

The chain one in the middle of the sprue. Once mounted on a sister it looks heavy and mean, but not too huge that they couldnlt swing it.

I want that axe of yours for my Inquisitor Lord. He's stuck with one of the Nob Big Choppas.

Beautifully over the top. Looking forward to seeing that axe thingy painted up.

I really like where you're going with the giant Eviscerator, but the only gripe I have with it is that it looks like a chainsword banner. I feel like the piece needs to be bulked out a little more, kinda like this Nob weapon:

Other than that, cool stuff, and I really like your yellow scheme for sisters!
