Those from Blood island got rather spikes + fields of something than fur I would just change value of colors and paint this area as different part with his own range of brightness and contrast and color - well classy grey is not bad ,blond either

and if you got Rat ogres from rat ogre box well that's not "fur" either, GW sculptors have no idea how fur looks ... I would go for Albinos rat with those and just shade this "Fur" in Black and White with addition of base skin color - yes this will meld this a bit with skin but now this is mess (or just make him Blonde - Arian Rat ogres with blue eyes

)
This one has been given by a friend and comes out the rat ogre box.
I converted it years ago to get a strange and very wild position with rings piercing the flesh of its back, chains hunged on those rings and pieces of broken wall at the end of those chains... yes, you've understood, it was chained straight from the flesh to the wall and it made a strenght contest with the wall. The wall lost!
The unhealthy flesh seemed the good choice indeed...
For the hair, I think the albinos look would be fine! Thanks!
I've got to paint a realistic skin with those white hair... not like this...

Good minis but not what I want...
Those are pretty.
Mine must be insane.
And for the eyes? What about one blood red eye and one clear blue eye? Strange enough to be frightening with the albinos style?
