How about the Mantic undead pegasus?



Or use the GW dark eld peg if you need to keep it GW -



That's what I'm planning on using.

Check out my gallery here
Also I've started taking photos to use as reference for weathering which can be found here. Please send me your photos so they can be found all in one place!!

Bubber: if shipping is stupidly high then why not order alongside someone else?

Also, the nightmare tends to be the best ive seen so far.
Alot of other models look too thin and weedy, or just plain dumb.


Failing that:



£18 from GW (necromunder characters section)



£8 from GW again, (winged nightmare wings)

Or for £7.50 (again, GW) old zombie dragon wings:

I knew I bought that undead rat for a reason!

Damn - too many ideas now!

I got the wings from the great spined dragon somewhere too (big wings, no membrane).

I think size is difficult for those, and the risk is the price run high if you kitbash.
Perhaps you could do something with the LotR winged nazgul, its plastic but pricey compared to the gw winged nightmare. Also, LotR stuff is slightly smaller than WH so the size might fit.
Or if you dont mind the price you could look at this, perhaps

or

Need wings though (?)
Sorry, I dont have much ideas on this.

Wow thanks for all the ideas dudes!!

Really like that nightmare on the trollforged website!! looks awesome (thanks @poipo32) & that Typhon model on privateer press (ta! @Fayric) hmm ... food for thought!!

I also looked at the mantic one (thnx @bubber) tho the vamp kinda puts me off getting it but it would be cheap as chips to sort

@ Jack , thanks for the rat / wings too, that could look quite awesome with a bit of greenstuff work/wings.

I'll lets ya know wat i end up diddlin!

Cheers!!!
