Outflanking

With rumours of the new Tyranid Codex allowing for lots of Boneswords, I find myself attempting to figure out how to convert some from other Tyranid Bits. Does anyone have any ideas?

You could probably make it from a scything talon or rending claw.

Warhammer Fantasy Orges have some excellent knicked and dinged up swords that I think would work great as converted boneswords assuming they were painted properly

They'd probably be about the right size, Hulksmash, but I'm not sure they'd have the right organic feel, y'know?

Confirmation of why no-one should listen to Kanluwen when it comes to the IG - he doesn't want the IG, he want's Kan's New Model Army...

London (work) / Pompey (live, from time to time)

1: Make the bonesword (plasticard works wonders)
2: Use the warriors talon arm, remove the blade as close to the hand as possible.
3: Add 2-3 gaunt carapace plates where the blade used to be (makes an armoured hand guard and hides the cut)
4: Add the bonesword to the top.
5: Attatch the bio-feeder tube from the hand (bottom of it) to the top of the arm / elbow (nids have plenty of these on weapon arms, hack em off and use em)


The actual blade is piss easy to make from plasticard.
Cut the shape, then shave the front edge to a point.
Can even drill along the blade if wanted to make it look different.

Suffused with the dying memories of Sanguinus, the warriors of the Death Company seek only one thing: death in battle fighting against the enemies of the Emperor.
