I'm looking for an easy way to give my easterlings the curved swords the Egyptians used. Khopesh I believe is their name. Any ideas?

Do you have any Hunter Orcs? Some of their swords look khopesh, maybe make a press mold?

Plasticard works well too, perhaps 2mm thick. You can sometimes have some cool "effects" by leaving the original weapon intact and sculpting and plasticarding around it. By doing that you break that two dimensional feeling that often accompanies using that material.

These guys sell all kinds of parts. They break open packs and sell off the pieces. Check them out. Maybe they have them.

I believe the Tomb Kings models come with plenty of kopeshes - only problems being recouping the cash and offloading the rest of the models when done and that there aren't loads in the box either...
