Ragnarok miniatures. Their regular website is down but they say that they are still taking orders in their Facebook page.
"Peace" is that brief, glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading.

All plastic miniatures are just undead waiting to happen!   Get a pack of Victrix Vikings; add wounds, set heads lolling, limbs a bit akimbo, etc.
 
Take these Napoleonic French for example:

Absolutely, Ragnarok.
Also Gorgon Studios and Fenris Games.

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.

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 for the start of conversions
