Hey guys. Here is my just varnished Skulltaker. The last job I have is the sword. Been thinking to airbrush lightning on it but I have never done it on such a small blade. Would it fit? I'm planning to do all the hellblades the same for my bloodletters to tie everyone up. What do you think so far?

Personally, I like the slick black look of hellblades. So I'd say leave as is!! Looks pretty nice. I wouldn't suggest lightning anyway: that's more a power weapon thing. Daemonic, I'd suggest fire, if anything.

Wouldn't go with lightning. Tacky.

If anything I'd think about playing with greys, and smoke, and flowing lines.

Just subtle dark greys, to make the blade look like its mystical, maybe some ghostly souls there every now n again
