Which models do you think are the worst looking?
I've always hated the chaos spawn models, I always imagined the chaos spawn to look like John Carpenters 'The Thing', don't get me wrong, if you can paint them well in a flesh based colour it can look pretty good, but other then that when they are painted in red and black I hate them.
What's your opinion?

Hell the whole CSM line outside of the shit they came out in the starter box and the termies look like absolute dog shit.
i think possessed could be cool with a remodel
muti/obliterators are beyond ugly and definitely need one
i would like chaos spawn, except that they don't actually look very imaginative for what it is that they're SUPPOSED to be, which is incredibly powerful champions of chaos who slipped up once and lost their gods' favor
in that pic though it could just be any random dude turned into a spawn
I think the old spawn had a bit more character to them, though judging by what you said I doubt you would have liked them either. The variety of parts in the newer spawn kits is a big plus but they've lost some character in the process.
As far as models I dislike, most new GW sculpts look terrible. Comparing the 3ed Raptors to the 6ed Raptors is fucking sad.
Plastic cadians.
I've got a Chaos Spawn in my Kill team list.
10 Cultists, 4 Rubrik Marines, 1 Sorcerer and a Spawn.
I know what I'm doing with the other models but that Chaos Spawn I'm stumped on. I want something feathered and beaked. Something that screams Tzeentch while also looking like it flopped and slithered out of a cronenberg movie.
Thinking of using pic related as the base model.
Fucking hell.
That's a nice model; I can't actually think of any way I could kitbash it that wouldn't ruin it.
But then, I'm no good with organic bitz.
i miss the old spawn
THe old spawn was much better at that; it had a major problem though, which was being just one model with no variations or options. Including more than one in the same army without heavily customizing at least one would mean having two perfectly identical models supposed to represent boiling masses of random mutations. Luckily they sucked so much that you wouldn't play any anyway,
Also, if you're planning on using chaos spawn, I can only suggest to use spare bits and greenstuff to make your own. Mine were amorphous bodies covered in veins, holes and various deformities, with tentacles, hands and faces erupting from its surface.
As for the ugliest GW models, I'd nominate the minotaurs, although they're more a symbol than anything else - not only they're horrible, but their horrible 'style' infected and corrupted many of the following releases and now goes strong in AoS.
