So, I'm slowly working through my dark vengeance box chaos forces, and I'm just not liking the hellbrute.
It looks to organic for my taste, I've decided to sell him off.
So I'm wondering what people think I should replace him with? Raptors, Havocs, or IDK let me know what you think, thanks!

That depends entirely on what you want each of those units to do, for example, my raptors have two melta guns and the champ has a melta bomb. They deep strike or slog towards tanks and do what they do. Havocs won't be moving for at least a turn to get some shots off and will be varied on what guns you give them. I honestly like a las predator better than my hellbrute in higher point games. So it is entirely up to you on what you want those units to do.

I personally do like the Helbrute - it's the perfect blend of organic/metallic corruption that is signature Chaos. On topic, Predators and Vindicators are very nice substitutes.

Usually you are allowed to run with FW models nowdays so you might want to check out the decimator if you have a deep enough pocket.

Warmachine models can make great ones. I used one to make a nurgle one a few years back.
