So here's an idea. Rather than flood Johns thread deciding whether he likes Marauder minis, I thought I'd collect images of some non-Citadel Ogres that I think are compatible with old Citadel, or maintains some of the aesthetic, these might not be 100% "compatible" with Jes's Ogres, Golfags, or Olly's Ogryns - certainly none of them are as "chunky", but I think do have some of the Old Citadel vibe - feel free to discuss on that or suggest others!
Ral Partha Trolls
Sulpted by Bob Olley, Painted by http://www.witchhunter.net
Some not so good pictures of bare metal of the full range (14) http://www.collecting-citadel-miniatures.com/olley/index.php/Ral_Partha_-_Trolls
These can be had for £2.75 - £3.75 each from Ral Partha Europe (Troll Range).
I think these make great Steppe Ogres, a nice mix of improvised and hand-weapons, gives them a domestic, civilian militia feel about them.

Nice pictures of bare metal of the full range (12) http://www.collecting-citadel-miniatures.com/olley/index.php/Ral_Partha_-_Ogres
Again, £3.25 each from Ral PArtha Europe (Ogre range)
These are more barbarian, mercenary types, again with a bit of a steppe feel about them.

4 in the range, as "Large Ogres" from SHQ for £4.00 each.
These were for the Fantasy Warlord game by Gary Chalk and Ian Bailey. The other two designs are a bit out-there for me, and there is a third which seems to be uncatalogued.
Otherworld Miniatures
Sculpted by John Pickford painted by Andrew Taylor
This Cheiftan is 50mm to the eyes, and the troops are 45mm to the eyes cost £12.00 from Otherworld Miniatures Ogre Range
These are very in keeping with AD&D imagery, rather than Warhammer as you'd expect from Otherworld, but I think useful as another tribe, perhaps cave-men, slaves, gladiator types, or even "Savage Ogres".

So far I have some of the Otherworld and the SHQ in my warband
