Instead of using the only Necron model for crypteks, anyone have any suggestions for converting a Cryptek? Also, anyone know of any third party shops selling any models I could use for the Crypteks?

Triarch Praetorians with Deathmark heads is a common one. Or even just using the staves on Warriors.

Probably not an option for you due to cost, but when the local chain of game stores recently dumped all of their GW for half off, I picked up several of the Necron character models to use as Crypteks and Overlords.
You can also try to locate the original Necron Lord models from the 2nd Edition 40K.

Thanks for the replies. I would rather kitbash them than pay for those high priced finecast models.
Awesome conversion. What parts did you use?

I used warriors and the spare parts from the lych guard box (the parts which are used for the praetorians).
i feel that praetorians look better but would not want to buy another box for a few crypteks. this is in my opinion a cheap and decent alternative.

Vampire Counts Cairn Wraith (above link) with some arms from Dark eldar grotesque i think it was (i got it as spare parts in a lucky dip) and the head can be from any necron but i got mine from my spare parts in the chaos rhino box.
very easy to put together and alround nice looking model i think and have been told, cant wait to paint it up, just been too busy of late.
