Hi guys, I'm looking for some proxy 28mm minis to represent some of the alien races in THWs 5150 titles.

I've had a look around but can't seem to find anything.

What do you use?

Hassle free has a few, particularly the John that are good proxies:

Here are my proxies:
Zhuh-Zhuh from Eureka:

These could be Xeog if you paint them in blue, or they could be Cydees as they are in flesh tone:

The Hishen. Top left is a Razor, top right a Grath; the three ones in the middle would be Hishen warriors. These plastic models come from the game Gears of War:
