Hey so I'm about to get myself some warp spiders but I don't like that the exarch comes with poor options. powerblades + twin linked death spinner. So I was thinking of converting my own exarch from an autarch with the warp pack and fusion gun. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to give the autarch a death spinner/ spinneret rifle? Ideally I'd like to magnetize it so that I could still use him as an autarch with fusion gun if I chose to. Also if any one has done this pics would be really appreciated!

Sadly i can't upload pictures on my mobile phone for some reason :( if i remember, i will try to do it later when i get home.

I converted a warp spider to have a spinneret rifle quite easily. If you have any firedragons, you should have the flamer thingy that the exarch can use. That's basically a right arm holding the weapon.

You can chop off the spider's right arm and stick the fire dragon exarch's arm on there. It only takes a little bit of filing to get it to fit perfectly.

I chopped off the barrel of the flamer and stuck on the barrel of a bright lance for extra length since the spinneret is a 'rifle' but you could easily do it with any weapon i suppose. Or just keep it as it is. Then i just chopped the power blade off the left hand.

If you didn't know what the model normally looks like, you wouldn't even know it's a kitbash. I hope that's of some use to you?

Oh, since you're not using the death spinner there will be a cylindrical gap between his back and warp jump pack. I just cut the death spinners off the part that connects them and placed that in there to make sure there's no gap.
