Looking for... - Pfr_Fate - 03-24-2011 02:16 AM

First, let me apologize to Sarku if this thread is tangental. But i need some help. I am looking for a modern American Indian Woman miniature - 28mm. It is for a Horror RPG, and the character is a Wisconsin Dells native american woman, who is a professional radio announcer and has a history of being a knife thrower in the Dells carnivals. She has first hand knowledge of the Wisconsin Dells Ghost.

She must be recoginizable as a Native Dakota Sioux but not in a Cher Las Vegas way!

Something akin to :

I cannot find anything except a Reaper shaman mini that is more 31mm....

Thanks!

Well...ummm.....i promise that the character WILL fight zombies at some point in the campaign, if I can find a miniature for her!

Have you used the Reaper Fig finder?

Maybe with some slight conversion work:

Erk...

Hasslefree has a bunch of 'Modern' Women...I'm sure with dark hair and the right skin tone, it'd be convincing.

Just buy a scale model of Cher? She's plastic-cast as it is, so the moulds have to be out there...

AH! Funny thing: I looked at that one for a Wiccan and for an Egyptian Sorceroress....and didn't take it. Two things:

1) I'll have to check the size. Just bought one from Reaper that looks perfect but (compared to my Hasslefree colection) seems to be about 6'1"...
2) She's a knife fighter and not a magician....well, mostly a knife fighter.

miniatures scale....grrr arrg.

Fate!

Damn these took ages to findWatchmen02 Hi fate I've found this lady from Copplestone Casting http://www.copplestonecastings.co.uk/range.php?range=CC. If you turn the sword into a dagger and ditch the shield she should be useable.

Failing that there's these from Eureka Miniatures The Warrioress on the far right looks good. http://eurekamin.com.au/product_info.php?products_id=1830 (enlarge the small picture on the far right.

Hope this helped
