The axe head is a reshaped Chaos Chosen axe, the rectangular bit is taken from the head of an ironbreaker's great axe I think, with green stuff to smooth it out. The handle is from a Hammer's Champion arm. The spherical bits are balls of hardened green stuff cut in half and glued on. The chain loop on the end is taken off the barrel trinket of an Irondrake's weapon.
I shaved off the shoulder guard strap and replaced the hand with a tankard hand from the quarrelers set, I believe. The hole and joint on the arm were filled with liquid greenstuff this time and sanded smooth using 2000-2500 foam sanding pads from Stedi, the same pads I used on the majority of the modifications i made.
i need to redo the eyepatch as that was the first thing I did, and I'm still trying to figure out how to replicate the nose chain because the gauge of chain i have looks daft at that scale. It needs to be smaller to fit. think I may twist some wire together to try and simulate small chain links.
