40K Modeling: Cheap and Fast Necron Wraith and Spider Conversions Tutorial

This article outlines using mostly leftover bits to build 40K Necron Scarabs and Wraiths.

Most of the bits we use in these tutorials can be substituted out for other bits fairly easily. Use this as a starting point and your imagination as your guide! That sounded a little funny, but you get the idea!

And now for the Scarab!

  1. that looks sooooo much better with the shield wings and necron-looking headpiece, its almost sexy! good job! now I might actually make some! also its a spider, scarabs are the cheesy unit of doom that eats everything, unless you decide to call it a scarab since it does have wings like a scarab does…hmmmm

    1. Yeah, I messed up the title of the little beastie! Haha, it is indeed a Spider. That’s what you get while posting at midnight while drinking beer!

      It does look a lot better though, I agree. I bet we see more than a few of these little buggers.

  2. I love those wraiths!

    I’m looking into getting the bits I need to make a few on ebay right now. Just a question, when you say that the wraith tutorial requires all of the triarch bone pieces, does that mean that a whole box’s worth of triarch bone pieces will only make one wraith? or will it be enough for two?

    Thanks!
