Shadow Blade Master of Assassins !!!
Hi every body I was thinking that for my new DE army I could fully convert it !!!
U might say its crazily hard but no matter what I'm not heading for the 3000 !
So my first conversion is gonna be Shadow Blade (I love this guy !!!).
What d'u think of converting with the Aenur as base figure.
What about it ?
Please give me lots of ideas cuz' the converting's gonna be hard !!!

I did a Shadowblade conversion from the Aenur special fig. Get him and two different swords (one right handed and one left handed) I used archive witch elf #6 and cut both her gauntleted/gloved hands off. Remove Aenur's right hand and sword. This takes cutting, filing, sanding. Next, grind/file back his left,cloak holding arm to where it'll be about equal length for the left witch elf glove and sword. At both places Aenur's arms end now (properly shortened for witch elf gloved swords) file them flat as you will the gloved witch elf hands. Pin them on and your done. Those witch elf blades look really Nasty!

Just kiddin' ya! Here's 2 more assassin conversions: Archive assassin with right hand raised overhead, dark rider command sword arm, (from 40k) Drazhar, Master of Blades left arm. Cut off assassin's right hand at top of glove. Substitute dark rider arm, cutting it at top of glove/gauntlet. File both flat and pin. For the left arm, grind cape on left arm back just far enough for Drazhar's left fist and blade to stick out. You're only using fist holding blade. The thing on top of Drazhar's swordblade that looks like electric coils has to be filed off. When you do, the blade actually LOOKS NASTIER. File the 2 surfaces flat and pin...2) Start with Venomblade from DE Bloodbowl team. Use both Drazhar's left and right arms. File left arm/cape like previous model and change right arms same as previous model. This really gives you a cross between Drazhar of 40k and Venomblade from Blood Bowl that fits nicely into WFB !! 3) Although I haven't done it yet, you can take our new assassin with bare head and ponytail and just add Drazhar's arms. This is the easiest 'cuz you don't have to mess with grinding any cape back anywhere.

I like the Dark Eldar lord's claw the most.

Malekith's "Hand of Khaine" is the left hand. 40K Dark Eldar Lord's powerfist is the right hand. It just depends if you want your gauntlet of power to be right or left handed...hahaha..Both can be bought individually through mail order. Pull up the on-line catalogue to get the part number. I usually wait 'til I have a big enough parts list to make paying for the shipping worthwhile. Since I'll be getting a unit of 20 new style corsairs soon (I have 24 5th ed. corsairs), that'll be pretty soon .....mwahahaha

!lol!!lol!!lol!
My parents refused :(.
But strangely enough they let me buy mail order .
You know - you could just try the in-store order point (there new) as I don't think you need a credit card.

To Vulcadrake: No need to convert manticore. There are 2 good GW models, but both very different. There's ours, and then there's the archive Dieter Hellsnicht on Manticore (necromancer). I used the Hellsnicht Manticore to convert into a Chimera. You could easily convert our manticore into a chimera too. I did a Malekith conversion during 4th/5th ed when he rode a cold one chariot. Beastlord Rakarth torso, plastic chaos warrior legs and cape, right hand sword arm of archive chaos warrior #1(has full length skeleton etched along full blade length). I added some horns to Rakarth's helmet from plastic chaos warrior helmet and made the "Circlet of Iron" on his helmet from a thin piece of insulated electric wire. It bends/shapes/forms easy enough but a little difficult to cut to exact length for perfect enclosed circle around the helmet(took about 5-6 attempts,but at least it was cheap). His cold ones are horned like the cold one skink riders. I made his chariot out of balsa wood and bits. This was long before DE had chariots. Malekith was the only DE with a chariot. Now I use the model if I take Malekith to represent him on foot. (In case he lives but his dragon dies). By the rules, if you don't have a model to represent a monster rider on foot and the monster dies, you loose the rider too!! That's over 600pts you lose for not having a foot replacement model. You also have the WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) rule.

I know if you are meant to have a model on foot, but ive never read anywhere where it says it dies if its not WYSIWYG or even if you dont have one( a bit stupid IMHO)
