Sword of Power: Time for a level up

I thought it might be time to level up Vasken's sword...




 ...from these average looking blade.


But where to get one worthy of a warlord of Khorne?
Off to look at the Stuff of Legends catalogs.



I think merging that blade with the little horned skull should do the trick!  Reminds me of a certain 80s carton in my head. Oh brother not again!

 




It's getting there...


Closer....


There we go!  I think that will do it......By the Power of....



I tried to add in all the colors of my chaos scheme...green didnt make it.


Now after he has charged with his cheetah lance he can swing his er bone sword.  LOL


With this half of the Sword of Power...


Black Vasken can now unlock more secrets of Castle Grayskull!


Till next time M8's!!!

    Such decadent indulgence!

    You bought the Mercedes just so that you could wear the good ornament!

    It looks great though, to be fair, and if you don't go the extra mile for Vasken, then who do you go the extra mile for?

    Awesome, and I love the little triangle you added, it's a very subtle detail that adds a lot of character.

      Thanks Mr Papafakis! Once I saw the little horned skull on that Librarian I knew it was a perfect match. Not sure if it comes across as I painted it black...but tried to make the handle look like bones as well.

    Fantastic looking sword. I think I would be unable to do this on many levels. Not the least pulling apart a "finished" model to add stuff to.
