Similarities between Magic creatures and Mage Knight/Warhammer/other warriors...?

I'm working on a Magic miniatures game, and I hope to repaint some miniatures from other games to make it a bit more fun. So far, I'm planning on repainting a Royal Pikeman (Mage Knight) to resemble a Llanowar Knight.

Do any of you have any recommendations on miniatures that could be made to look like Magic creatures?

A lot of the fantasy creatures from Warhammer can be "converted" to Magic. Like the Dragon, Ogre, Troll, Unicorn, Beastmen can probably be Minotaurs...

I guess my best bet is to wander through the Warhammer aisles and see what strikes me.

Apparently, they keep coming out with new models (kinda like Magic :)) so also check ebay or places that keep out-of-stock stuff to get ideas.

Why don't you just go through the discount racks of all the game stors you can find and use the Magic: The Gathering minitures that they used to produce.

They're not bad, but the selection is limited, esspecially since they have not been made for about 5 years.

Some that I have, and that I remember seeing:

Mahomiti Djinn
Ragman
Ironclaw orcs
Brother's of fire
The dude in the Library of Leng picture
Clay statue

...Thee's more, but I can't recall what. Check e-bay.

I didn't even realize there were Magic miniatures! I'll try to track some down.

I bought some Warhammer goblins today. I think they'll work nicely.

Thanks, y'all!
