I've been having a great time running my Kroot models as a webway portal Dark Eldar list, and it is time to upgrade some of the units to be more competitive. For the beast packs, this means including razorwing flocks. This is the official model:



It's already quite Krooty enough, and I may just end up using these models, but the converter in me wants to use something different. I went looking through my model collection, and I have some Warmaster undead carrion models:



I have also been looking at using these two models as the base for a Kroot conversion, the Warmaster dark elf hydra and Lizardmen razordon:




Currently, my personal preference is the hydra, simply because it has five heads. The razorwing flock is a 5 attack, 5 wound model. The heads also closely resemble Kroot hounds, which I have been using as Khymerae. I am partial to the razordon, however, as I envision my Kroot army to look like all the different Pandoran beasts from the movie Avatar under one guided direction, and the razordon reminds me of this fella.



What would you suggest?

I'd go with the official model, cept paint them up to look like hawks with natural browns and tans.

I like the Hydra - I don't really like the actual GW; i dont think it suits dark eldar in general (IMHO)

Those Undead Carrion models are pretty neat. Any idea of how close in size they are to the official model for the razorwings?
