So I have really been wanting to play with Wraiths after proxying them for a couple games, unfortunately new Wraiths aren't in the financials this month. Obviously I did not want to keep proxying them, and with the prospect of a tournament this next weekend, I decided I would kit-bash some from the ol' bitz box as a temporary fix.
So I ended up using a Lychguard dispersion shield as the body, with a pair of paperclips as the tail attached to the base. I used the back of a Necron torso to bulk out the underside and provide a slot for the head. They have Tyranid Warrior scything claws with the details cut down and Mawloc spines as secondary arms/tendrils. I have done a couple different heads; one extra from a Spyder, a few SM searchlights with Necron frontface, and two with LRC targetters.
I like how they came out for something I am using on a short-term basis. They don't have the size of the new Wraiths but they match the old 3rd ed. ones fine, so should be no harm/ no foul situation....
