Subject: Need help finding a skeleton/zombie model for a Nurgle Demon Prince

Greetings! I am planning to make a Nurgle DP for Planetstrike games (3 Demon Princes = mean!) and I wanted to go for a zombie or skeleton model instead of the big fat demon prince model. I'm planning to give it wings, either as skeletal wings or an oversized jump pack. However, I'm having issues finding a model of the right size. A lot of the skeleton and zombie models I see are the size of a standard trooper instead of the 3 inches or so I'd need for a Demon Prince. Anyone have any suggestions for a suitable model?

Tomb Kings bone Giant might be a decent start?

I did look into possibly using that model but 1) I'd like something without all the Egyptian armor and 2) the model is kinda doofy looking IMO. Thank you for the suggestion, though!
However the Ushabti guard may be an option, especially the Jackal headed one (the jackal headed god was the god of death, correct? I may need to brush up on my Egyptian mythos.)

You could always use just the skull; the bone giant comes with two heads, so an tombkings player near you should have a spare. Alternatively, I've seen a great giang made out of the screaming skull bits (Phill kelly's in an old WD I belive), which don't carry tha tmuch Egyptian symbols.
Anubis was the god who guided the dead and assisted with embalming IIRC. Osiris became the actual god of the underworld in later periods.

There's always the plastic Giant as well. Rather bit bigger than than 3", but he comes with TONS of Bitz and and would easily be zombified with proper application of Green Stuff.

I like that first one. Do you know if that site can ship to the US?

They ship to the uk so I can't see them not shipping to the US.
I checked out the countries they ship to but I don't know what America is in Spanish!
If you have a Hispanic freinds have them on hand to help!
