Subject: Prototype Hell Blade (please tell me what you think)

Hey guys, I'm just sitting here waiting for my copy of Dark Vengeance to arrive, so I figured I'd get my Chaos on and build a Hell Blade out of things lying around my dorm room. I couldn't find any templates for one online so I've made my own just measuring out what looks right to me with no sense of scale (maybe I should have gone with orks the way I scratchbuild) out of cardboard. It's probably a bit small, but I'll just say it's a variant design (renegades like orks don't exactly have standard designs) This is the skeleton for a final product that will be done in plasticard and foamboard. It will have more grubbinz added on (and if it won't work as a hell blade I'm sure my orks can make use of it: "oi doz spiky boyz got nice zippy flyas, get da mek to make us one") here's a pic:
If you're wondering what the black stuff is I was covering up my address from the box I made it from, and that's a Pepsi cap next to it for scale.

I have no idea what it is that is being linked, but my Anti Virus goes CRAZY when I go into this thread. If pictures are from your computer OP may want to ensure they are virus free.

Hmm, they're from my Iphone, via google plus never used it before, but no one's complained before. I think it's my web host, I'll use regular picasa from now on, no one's complained about it before.
EDIT: Just did a virus scan, nada zip zero on my end

I encourage scratchbuilding, but right now that looks like a couple cardboard triangles and that's about it.

@ Brother SRM: Like I said it's a prototype, and the skeleton of a prototype at that. The finished product will look much better.
@Construct: That's actually exactly what I needed, thank you so much.
EDIT: I'm gonna need some better cardstock and some plasticard, cardboard and the printer paper I'm using is not working.
