Take these Napoleonic French for example:

Conquest Games also do Barrow Wights which may serve.

Post by: Mason on 24 December 2022, 01:25:41 PM: I was trying to avoid plastic conversions as I will probably still tinker with whatever I do use, especially as I am currently slowly messing about with plastics to make my own Centaurs for my Greek OGAM force.

Ragnarok was the one I was looking for, the same fella who did my favourite modern Dwarves, I just could not remember who did them.
:D

The other suggestions are great too, especially those Conquest and BS ones.
:)

Thanks very much, Gentlemen, much appreciated.

Nothing too cunning, mate!
Just feeling the urge to go back to my OGAM project* and my Norse really do need some more appropriate 'Undead' to flesh out their ranks, rather than my existing choice of LotR Army of the Dead figures.
I know that I could have kitbashed from all manner of plastic kits but do not really fancy that as the Centaurs I am making for my Greeks are proving more fiddly than I thought they would be using that method.

Post by: nervisfr on 30 December 2022, 09:07:53 AM: Sorry to learn that you don't like the plastic conversion option.... :'(

Mine are exactly what you don't want ; a mix of LOTR dead army and Mantic zombie/ghoul ;)

see here (http://chti-reanimator59.blogspot.com/2018/08/la-croisiere-samusesans-le-re-animator.html) for the start of conversions
