Default Necron Wraith Lord

Now that I've run out of models to make and paint, I'm looking at converting a Necron Lord onto a wraith body to act as a Destroyer Body. I was just wondering if anyone has any ideas, so far I'm just looking at stickint the torso on the end of a spine, but I don't want him looking at the ground or bent strangely, so I'll probably tilt the spine so he's facing the right way. Thanks in advance for any help.

I built mine by just using the wraith and buying the destoyer lord staff of light and rez orb.

I used the wraith body for my lords body.

I made this conversion for a golden daemon once (no award) I used a destroyer platform and pinned the wraith body on it. For the arms you have to mix up pieces of wraith arms with destroyer lord arms because normal arms look silly proportionally so you need the extra length of the wraith upper arms. I also cut the tube connecting the head to the neck on the wraith body. I'll try to post photos soon

Okay, so here's what I'm looking at: It will take a Destroyer Lord and two wraiths, but will yield be an extra Destroyer and an extra, albeit shorter, wraith.

From the bottom up:

bottom half of tail without mess of cables, wrapped around pillar
middle section of spine, consisting of top of bottom half and bottom of top half, wrapped around pillar and extending just above and in front of it.
Lord torso on top of that, with elongated arms as nillic suggested (thanks man), holding a warscythe and Ressurection Orb.

Thanks also to those who posted in the similar threads a year or so back, I got the pillar idea there.
EDIT: That was The Paint Monkey. I'll try to post a picture when I'm finished, but it may take some time, this is still just a plan.

PART 2:

Okay, I ran out and grabbed the parts, and got going on him. I dropped the pillar deal; I didn't have a pillar and didn't feel like making one. The tail is curly, and the torso will hopefully go on top of that as soon as it glues to itself. I filed down part of the shoulder pads and stuck the wraith shoulders on; it looks good from the back, the front comes off a bit strange, but that'll be fixed with painting. So far I'm very happy. Thanks everyone. More tomorrow, 3 day weekend and whatnot.
