I'm looking for some GW/40K scale closed fists, or some pointing hands for some conversions I'm working on. I thought there was a third-party resin company that made hand bits but I'm coming up with nothing. Nothing armored. Just plain old human hands. Any ideas? |

The bits boxes at flea markets. If there's one thing easier to find than sprues of surplus GW body parts, it's beat up incomplete GW figures. |

I know nothing about this company, but they have several sets of hands link |

Thanks for that link PaulCollins, I wasn't aware of that company. Regarding surplus parts, I don't think there are that many GW components that don't have a weapon integrated into the hand. Pretty much every GW fig has the 'gun in one hand, knife/sword/axe in the other' thing going on. Heck even the new Necromunda Cawdor set has guys with polearm weapons- held one handed, with a damn knife in the other hand! If there are some plain old human hands with no weapons in a GW set I'd love to know which ones! |

Would 1/35th hands work? IIRC, that was used as the 'scale' for heads & hands on 40K figures way back when… |

Maybe, I'll look into that. Thanks! |
