Ok i am thinking about a C'tan in my list but i really dont like the models we have Deceiver and Nightbringer

So i want to know, are we getting new shard models ,and if not, what would you guys think to taking any other GW model and converting it in to a shard ? also what would the acceptable parameters be for doing this ?

Other GW models should be fine as long as they match the base size, height and basic profile pretty closely.

You can fudge this a bit by taking a shorter mini and putting it on top of something.

Keep in mind that part of the disadvantages of a C'tan is their height though so do not use a shorter model as that could be considered modelling for advantage.

Indeed. pretre summed it up nicely.
