Alternative to Harpies

Anyone think these could make good harpies? I hate GW's current models.
These may be too big for 20mm bases though. :/

Gamezone do prettier ones.

I put them on a 20 mm base but then glue a 1 1/4" washer underneath so they are stable on the table. They are never going to rank up properly anyway, so you are not really losing anything, and it makes them much more practical to use on hills and slopes.

Those cost way to much. Close to 70% more than GW's at retail.

both look inferior and costs more than buying one pack of crypt ghouls and one pack of tyranid gargoyles and making your own harpies ;)

Slaanesh Daemonettes are way better than crypt ghouls.

I made mine out of the gargoyles and the daemonettes, very nice, quick and easy.
