That being said, you could use hafts from other space marine weapons for similar conversions. I chose the Grey Knight ones because they have long unadorned handles, allowing for a simple and functional look in the converted hammers.

I think it may be a grey knights bit but im unsure. Excellent conversion either way!

The overall conversion went a lot better than I was imagining (quicker too).

I really dislike the standard thunderhammers. They look a bit ridiculous. I just swapped mine for grey knight terminator swords, and treat them as counts as. Your version is cool enough to make me swap the swords back to hammers!greggleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15528518337222880432noreply@blogger.com
