Ur Ghul alternative models

I'm recently running my Archon mostly with court in a venom, especially having an archon with two ur ghuls appeals to me visually. It's almost similar to the Joker at the end of the Dark Knight

dark knight spoiler:

However to me the Ur Ghul don't look as ferocious as I'd like them to look, so I wanted to start looking for alternative models. They should look ferocious and beast-like, if you have any ideas then please let me know Wink

What type of look are you going for? you could always swap the head for some wolf heads if you want the pet dog thing.

Or if you want the same look try some dnd ghasts or feral zombies.

Those look pretty cool. I'm looking for something beast-like and alien.

I also thought these looked pretty cool, but they don't quite hit the mark:

Some more hound creatures, seem more creepy. Reaper has a lot of nice models.

so far I like these models a lot, though they might be too big:
Ur Ghul alternative models 1230078_628436903854632_1571323269_n

Ur Ghul alternative models Hellhounds_3_metal_1

Ur Ghul alternative models Carnage-Hound-394x295

Ur Ghul alternative models Trollcast-hound_01

Also I really like the more mandrake-ish style of the D&D hellhound artwork:

Ur Ghul alternative models Hell_Hound_by_DaveAllsop

Ur Ghul alternative models Hell-Hound-5-1024x768

Though the closest thing I found to this in miniatures were these two:

Ur Ghul alternative models IG_3469_1

So are there more suggestions? Razz

I have a couple of Ghoul Kings from the VC Terrorgheist kit. I had the same issues with the UG's and these bear more than a passing resemblance, but are ever so slightly bigger, and a bit beefier and much more vicious looking. I will post a pic later.

EDIT - here you go, Elzadar. I have two for now, they were cheap from a bitz supplier and I plan on re-posing them a bit to differentiate them. I might also greenstuff their eyes and foreheads to match the UG's, but I have been meaning to do all this for a couple of years now, so .....

Yeah I agree. I might have to create some ur ghuls of my own (with top hats of course Wink
