So I was looking to start a Vampire Counts army for funsies, but being me I had to find some schtick to make it different. After a bit of thinking, I decided I'd base the vampires themselves around the idea of two vampire brothers from modern day jumping back in time and raising an army. So what I'm having trouble finding is models for the two brothers themselves; one will be a mage who I will look for on my own, but the one I'm stuck on is the melee fighter who I want to be a teenage (or early 20's) biker badass, just like... Well, yeah... The Lost Boys vampires. For those of you who don't know (or remember) what I'm talking about, here's a glimpse of the idea:



I'll do the painting to make it look vampiric, so any models that have that 80's big hair and leather jacket look to them are. Preferably a spiteful and/or psychotic grin Modern weapons like a pistol or something are fine as well.

Anybody seen anything like this? Thanks in advance!


P.S. No Mullets Please.

Might want to rethink the title of your thread.

Whilst "Greaser" was a term attached to leather-jacket wearing troublemaking youth several decades ago, it's also a racial epithet in your part of the world.

Since when has greaser been a racial thing?

West Wind's Road Kill Range any use? Thos guns look like they could snip off to be replaced with more appropriate melee weapons

I think that term's fine in context, personally.

Heresy have some fun 80s mulleted barbarians ( this one for example), which might work with a little GS. They also have a fun Thriller-era Michael Jackson zombie halfling, which would fit in with your theme.

Copplestone/EM4 have bikers here, too: http://www.em4miniatures.com/acatalog/BIKERS.html

With a bit of work some of these might cut it.

Have you considered looking through the old Necromunda range? They are gw figures so should fit the scale well and all have the urban street gang feel.

If you're really good at customising your models, it might be worth trying to make something out of the empire militia box, there are trench coats, tight trousers with big boots, heavy gloves and so on in there, but you'll probably want to do a lot of reposing work. Also the militia might be a little heavy set for a vampire (then again HHH was a vampire in the blade series...)
