I started with the lower half of a Wraith. I them rounded up one of the hanging torsos from the zombie sprue and a couple zombie arms. I carver the noose from around the torso head and trimmed off the bottom. Then I pinned the torso to the Wraith lower half. After it set up I glued on the zombie arms and let them cure. Then I used greenstuff to cover the torso and blend into the robe on the bottom. I added a belt around the waist and last I added the hood.I still need to do a bit more greenstuff work to even out the shoulders. Maybe I will get it done before another Vampire Count army book comes out in four or five years.

I know what you mean about trying to finish stuff before new books come out. I don't always start a project right when the book comes out so I'm usually about a year late starting an army, then it takes me at least six months to decide what I want to do with the army, then about a year to collect the minis I need, and finally six months to a year to build and paint it. When you throw releasing a new edition of the core game in the middle of that I never got my Vampire Counts finished either. Oh well it's not like the undead sre going anywhere. Your guy looks good by the way.
I have been adding to my Vampire counts a long time. I started with the skeleton army box from back in 3rd edition. The last time I fielded my Vampire army it was lead by the Lahmian Vampire Lady Etelka during a Fantasy Battle league at the old Hobbytown in Winston. I usually bring out the vampires around October and work on them a little bit every year. I might even pick up the new armybook and pu them back on the table.
