Just looking for inspiration for a Warp Spider Spinnerette Rifle... I thought of adding the barrel of a Deathspinner to the lock and stock of a lasblaster, but it might look a bit clumsy and the conversion's not exactly original.

Tyranid devourers might be an option???

I dunno if they fit the techno-organic style of the Eldar. Anyone have a pic?

Although I haven't done this, here's an idea:

Start with a Guardian shuricat. Cut off the flaring barrel, the flaring tail, and the clip. Replace the clip and tail with the knobbly things from a War Walker starcannon (should be easy to get, as no one uses starcannons much anymore). Replace the barrel with a standard Spider's spinner barrel or one of the dual Exarch spinner barrels. Voila, similar gun with a more "melta of spinner weapons" look.

Sounds good Savnock, it would look great against a squad of the current Warp Spider models.

However, I did almost exactly that to make my kitbashed warp spiders using the old plastic guardians with lasguns. It looks good, too, but in my case the Exarch's Rifle wouldn't look much different from the "regular" spinners...

Unfortunately, this seems to be a common problem for 40K in general. Weapon options that are listed in the Codex, but that have no model in production, no conversion bits packs, no art to illustrate what it should/could look like. I had the same problem trying to model a Shining Spear Exarch's Starlance.
