Hi,

I'm looking for left and right empty hands that I can use on a librarian conversion. Preferably they'd be open, Ie palms visible. I can find one side (left iirc) though not the right.

Any kit recommendations that I can look at please?

Ta

the Librarian in terminator armor has an open left hand cut off at the wrist.

Yeah it's the right hand I'm struggling to find; there's loads of options with the grey knights and sanguinary guard kits for open left hands though it seems gw doesn't support ambidextrous-ness lol

is it not possible to slice up one of the hands and re sculpt the thumb and finger lengths with green stuff?

The librarian from the Dark Vengeance set is gesturing with an open right hand, might be able to pick one of those up reasonably cheap?

Probably, though it's way out of my skill set, I've no experience sculpting

Thanks for the suggestion, I'd not even thought of him. I may have some other options (the csm raptor box for one) that may pay off and be a lot cheaper

How many do you need?

Just 1 left and 1 right, unless I bollock it up and somehow break them.

The planned conversion is jump packed equipped power armoured libby (using a da veteran robbed body) conjuring flaming swords above his head and casting them at his foes. So I'll be plunging into green stuff to model the flames on the swords, though am a million miles from moulding things as small as hands

Biker arms might be your best bet. I'll have a look through my bitz tomorrow. Im pretty sure ive got a few you can have. Failing that I have the dv librarian which may need stripping but is yours for the price of a stamp. If you want them of course.

That would be absolutely incredible if you really wouldn't mind? No pressure of course, if you'd rather hold on to them please don't feel obliged in anyway

Nah. I'm not likely to ever use them. I'll let you know what I've got tomorrow

Sanguinary guard has one

Yeah I'm looking for a counter part to that. Biker hands should do
