So I ask you, Dakka, do you know of 1) any good weapon packs out there from other companies that include a good sickle, or 2) a good way to convert one up that doesn't involve plasticard? I have a pretty large 40k bitz box to work from, including numerous Space Marine, Ork, IG, Tau, Daemons, and Necron bitz, but so far have found nothing that'd make a decent converted sickle.

Any help would be appreciated! All suggestions welcome!

For reference, what I'm looking for should look somewhat like this:



Note the gentler curve and shorter blade than the standard agricultural variety.

Thanks!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/342191/2369474.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/342191/2369474.page GMT Looking for a weapon pack with a good sickle OR tips on converting one.
A bit of brass rod and some carefully cut and sanded plasticard should do the job. The claws on the converted flayed ones are made the same way.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/342191/2369517.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/342191/2369517.page GMT Re:Looking for a weapon pack with a good sickle OR tips on converting one. http://www.westwindproductions.co.uk/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=126_148&products_id=1434
Though paying 4£ for just a weapon might be too much, but at least you wouldn't have to use plasticard ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/342191/2369549.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/342191/2369549.page GMT Re:Looking for a weapon pack with a good sickle OR tips on converting one. http://www.trollandtoad.com/pd1606494.html?associateid=97_2

If the issue is simply not having any, then I'm sure you could find a reasonable substitute laying around. Hell, I've cut and filed bits and bobs out of everything from plastic eating utensils to canceled credit cards.

It's mostly that I'm terrible at sculpting anything at all forever. If I try and make it from scratch, it'll look like absolute ass. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/342191/2371354.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/342191/2371354.page GMT Looking for a weapon pack with a good sickle OR tips on converting one.
