I've looked around the internets, and some people have suggested LOTR wargs or Chaos warhounds to be used as plastic alternatives for Kroot hounds.

Any Dakka Dakka members have any experience converting and painting plastic Kroothounds?

I made up a plastic one out of a warg last week.

Needed its tail docked, some "spines" added and the head altered (greenstuff) - It was slightly larger than the other two actual (metal) kroothounds I have, but it looked adequate.

Though it wasn't actually for a "kroot" thing. A mate wanted to use his "so totally not predators" by Copplestone casting in a Tomorrow's War game - but he wanted to use the predator's hunting dogs (from Predators) as well. I needed a third model.

I'm OVER 50 (and so far over everyone's BS, too).
Old enough to know better, young enough to not give a ****.

That is not dead which can eternal lie ...

... and yet, with strange aeons, even death may die.

No easy conversion would look Kroot-like, so I would wait until next year, when we might see official models in plastic.
BTW I like the metal Kroot Hounds, but I am obviously biased .
