I just need a little help finding some conversion ideas or some alternative paint schemes on existing models.

What kind of vampires do you want?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/221306/424312.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/221306/424312.page GMT Re:I hate GW vampires GW stuff. I want some more subtle vampires. Just beefy knights or fellows in robes who look like vampires with the right paint job or a few extra bits added. Even just some random heavily armored guy with a helmet on would do it for me at this point. I could just give him a Grave Guard shield and call it a day. I also need a little inspiration on what to do to make something like what I've suggested more "vampiry".]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/221306/424314.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/221306/424314.page GMT I hate GW vampires
tbh I can't really see another way since the whole concept of vampires is a kind of gothic image. Hence why their called vampire COUNTS, counts being european nobleman from the gothic periods.

I hate pants.

but you don't see me whinning about it on line.

Have you considered Dark Elf/Eldar heads, they tend to be gaunt and elongated the way I picture vampires looking.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/221306/424332.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/221306/424332.page GMT I hate GW vampires

1) Actually, now we have!

2) The vast majority of GW's vampires are, well, pants. Seek in other miniature ranges, unless you think you'll be attending "Official" GW tournaments (NOT most, if not all, Rogue Traders)...]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/221306/424355.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/221306/424355.page GMT I hate GW vampires http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/221306/424609.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/221306/424609.page GMT Re:I hate GW vampires http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/221306/424709.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/221306/424709.page GMT I hate GW vampires
Heres a cool (and slightly risque) one from Reaper... I've linked rather than posted the pic as it contains white metal nudity!

The Warlord line in particular has models that are Heroic 28mm that are chock full of undead goodness! Check out the Necropolis Army for great "counts as" (haha, little pun there) models that are probably cheaper than GW's too.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/221306/425064.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/221306/425064.page GMT Re:I hate GW vampires VC range is the proliferation of bat-winged armor designs and that they generally have hugely out of proportion fangs.I just use regular models and paint them as vampires. Good color scheme and a little conversion can go a long way. For instance, I am making a Brettonian themed VC army and instead of using the GW vampire models I have bought the Brettonian lord with GW and will be painting him with pale greyish skin. I have also converted a vampire on foot just using bits from the Empire and Brettonian range. If you are making a VC army that is in the Empire then just buy the plastic generals kit, make a few conversions, paint to flavor, and presto viola: vampire.
