Please could someone tell me how to convert the Glaive Encarmine's of the Blood Angels into a different chapter, (e.g Salamanders)?

Any other tips like painting and modeling ideas would be good, because I'm thinking of converting a Salamanders Captain from various bits?
Any ideas for the Captain would be appreciated to.

Thanks in advance

Or a Death Company Power Sword

Shave off any blood drops and paint them green?

I was planning on using some of the Sanguinary Guard's weapons for a couple of my not yet finished kitbashed Librarians (also Salamanders btw), but I'll probably use some leftover (power) weapons from the upcoming Grey Knights kit instead.

There's actually a few of the sword looking glaives that have nothing aside from just the 'angel wing' motif on them.

They look generic enough that they'd work as a 'force weapon' for anyone really.

Yes I know, there is two useful ones + one of the axes. The other arms have bolters attached, which I want to avoid (although I guess it isn't that hard to remove them).

Some of the GK arms have bolters attached too of course, but they seem to have quite a lot of one-handed weapon options on the sprue. I'll just wait until I have the GK and see which option I like best. I bet the warding stave looks good on a Librarian as well.

Moving thread to Painting & Modelling.
