So the other day I got a Forgeworld Mister Bubbles. I'm looking for a GW model, or bits from models, that I can use with minimal greenstuffing to create a Little Sister. I'm asking for GW-only for a potential GD large model or duel entry.
Any ideas? I'm not familiar with GW's classic or specialist games ranges so maybe there's already a ready-made one. I don't mind much for GW's typical bobbleheaded look because the Bioshock art design makes her look pretty bobbleheaded anyway.
edit: Bonus points if you can give me tips on making the model and/or diorama somehow fit with 40k and the Renegade Ogryn. You know how GW is with making your models look like part of the mythos to even consider the model for first cut.

the only GW female child I can think of is the one from the mordheim villagers. She is something like 20mm high, has her hands crossed in front of her chest, and looks quite cross. You could use the top half of the body with different legs to " 40k" the figure a bit.
EDIT: here is a picture of the one I painted
She's on a 20mm base, so maybe more like 18mm high.

Consider looking into Lord of the Rings, specifically the hobbit models. I believe there are a couple females there.

What about Necromunda Escher Juves? They are smallish and they are certainly 40k style. They aren't so much children as a young adults, but it may fit your bill.

Thanks for the suggestions. LOTR wouldn't work because I don't think GW disqualifies you if you mix their kits with non- LOTR kits...which is a shame cuz it would've made this a lot easier. I'll probably get a hasslefree mini later just to make a "proper" Bioshock diorama of sorts. But, I think the Necromunda or Mordheim thing might just work! Now to 40k-ify the idea...
