Hmm Tricky ... (epic would have been easier)

the most immediate thing that springs to mind is to wait and see what Mantic come up with for their Space Elves

If you're particularly looking for a non-GW I'll have a search round and see what I can come up with

If (like me) you think the GW isn't interesting or different from the falcon enough; I remember there being an article in a late 90's WD that gave instructions for building a Waveserpent based around the falcon hull that extended and re-shaped it with plasti-card (and a spoon!) to look like the contemporary Epic Wave serpent  

I can't find any pictures of the WD online (I will scan pictures later) but here's a picture of one someone has built from the same instructions


 ^ A scratch-built Wave Serpent flanked by 2 modern Wave Serpents (one of which is probably from Forge World)

also if you want a really different looking Wave Serpent check out this radically different one by ArmorCast based on the very old Epic Waveserpent ...



these have of course been out of production for many long years, but you may want to have a stab at scratch-building your own one


 ^ terrible picture but shows the size compared with an Eldar foot troop

here's a few other home brew Wave Serpents I've seen online that might inspire you
