So, I did a TON of work on my Wraithknight conversion today. He's intended to be a part of my Eldar force allied into my Farsight Enclaves/Tau main force. I wanted to only use Eldar parts, but capture the feeling of the Tau. I believe I did so. I decided to use parts from both the Squadron Command Frame and one of the Eldar Support Weapons to make a Heavy Wraithcannon Gun Drone. The Wraithknight is controlling it with a hand held device. I really like how it worked out. I think once I finish the painting, the copper tube holding up the drone isn't going to be super obvious.

Let me know what you think!

Looks awesome.
But just as a afterthought have you thought about using the shield thingy as a remote? You would think the eldar have gone wireless already

But seriously:
Top notch!

I love the idea, and while the wire between control unit and drone helps tell the story, you'd think they'd have wireless covered by that point... ;-)

Also, as badkamer1 points out, using the shield as the remote unit (left arm crossed across torso, right hand hovering over/touching left wrist with shield) could have offered an interesting pose as well.

Still wonderful work though.
