Subject: Converting Wyches into Harlequins?

Veteran Knight Baron in a Crusader

All in the title here, I have an unassembled Wych sprue, so does anyone know how I could convert them to Harlequins?
Probably use the smooth helmets from the sprue, and ones I have from Reavers, using the splinter pistols as Shuriken pistols, Close combat weapons. Use the gauntlets as Kisses etc.
All this is fine, but could anyone suggest how to make them look more like Harlequins?

A quick bump today because I'm still hoping for a third party opinion.

Check out my gallery for some ideas, it's not too hard especially if you combine some other bits. I've made harlequin's kisses out of the spines from raider sails, carefully trimming off the sails.

You can make harlequin's kisses from the barrels of their splinter pistols as well. If you go on ebay, you can buy the plastic harlequin masks and pistol arms on their own - stick those on your wyches and you're laughing.

I'd probably pick up a box of harlequins and kit bash over as you get plenty of spares. If you don't want to do that, the traditional paint schemes will make it obvious that they are quins, as long as the are in masks.

... Probably the coolest harlequins I've seen anywhere, amazing work!
Did you sculpt the head of the first guy or is it from a GW kit?

Thanks for the kind words guys! And for your comments and votes number9dream. One of these days I'll get around to finishing then :/
The head from the first guy comes from the Empire Wizard kit, with the long beard thing snipped off. An awesome kit which I've actually bought twice it's so useful!

It always amazes/baffles me when someone (like you) has an entire gallery full of converted awesomeness and there's no votes on any of it haha
