I recently played a game where my army consisted of 2 units of bulls, the traditional 3 characters, and 3 units of Maneaters (which were proxied). This made for a very different play style, and I enjoy converting ogres enough that I decided to go ahead with converting that many maneaters. One unit were Stubborn Scouts, and another was Vanguard Swiftstride, and I already have great ideas for them. Where I'm falling short is for my Poison Snipers.
I already have one Maneater converted to look like Morpheus from the Matrix, and another I call the Bandito (cowboy hat, bandanna, texas belt-buckle; the works). I'm thinking of doing one up to look like the Sniper from Team Fortress 2. That leaves me with 3 open slots (it's the traditional unit of 6). Any helpful ideas?

What about a Rambo or Arnie from predator style Maneater, big ass guns with butt loads of ammo? Perhaps a shotgun wielding ME like from Terminator. I'd take inspiration from classic action films or westerns. Can't go far wrong for ideas there.

Chuck Norris was the fourth wise man and gave Jesus his favorite gift, a beard. The other wise men were so hacked off, they got Chuck Norris removed from the bible. Mysteriously, they all later died of Roundhouse kick related injuries.

Oooh, Rambo, Terminator, and Punisher. Great suggestions, and eminently doable. My buddy mentioned (although even he admitted it would an outright bear to do) having an ogre in a WWII Russian uniform with a bolt action rifle, pointedly ignoring the ogre in the Nazi uniform with a rifle next to him. Hysterical, but only if you get the reference.

Why not use one of the Ogryns from the 40k Imperial Guard Army? That would make for an amusing Poison Sniper. A Maneater who by mistake somehow got abducted by the Imperial Forces in the 41st millennium, and somehow made it back to the Mountains of Mourn like any other Maneater.
