Creating weapon options for a Chaos Lord

I have created a Fallen Chaos Lord some time ago. Unfortunately, the new codex made his weapon loadout illegal. It took some time, but I decided to bite the bullet and rip off his arms.

Conversion

Rip off the arms. Unfortunately, the chainsword arm was glued on using plastic glue, and it did not want to come off. It broke at the elbow. I had to use old snippers to chop it off. Thus, I decided to keep the hammer arm.

Dig around the bits box until everything is prepared. Yes, that accursed weapon is a Grey Knight force halberd.

Drill magnets into the arm sockets and the arms themselves. Two arms had weird joints, and I had to reinforce using green stuff.

Once everything is cured and dried, fit on the arms to glue on shoulder pads. This is important, so the shoulder pads don't push off the arms.

Painting

Prime the arms Wraithbone. Paint the plasma pistol, chainsword and power fist arms according to the original squad painting scheme. Drybrush the power fist Electric Blue.

Now for something else for the accursed power weapon. I tried this metallic green color scheme with a basecoat of Silver mixed with Dark Green.

Smooth out and add some separation from the hilt with a coat of Biel Tan Green.

Drybrush overall with the original mix. Add more Silver (at about 2:1) and drybrush towards the end. Edge highlight the end pure Silver.

I originally thought of Waywatcher Green, but I applied Lamenter's Yellow instead for a final coat to blend in the highlights.

Finished!
