Subject: Good 28mm "Heroic" or 35mm Resin Female Heads?

I've been trying to find good, high-quality resin-cast female heads that will fit on standard Space Marine armour (not looking to discuss the possibility of female Space Marines in this topic, so please keep things on topic).
I tried Reaper stuff but the heads are far too small, not to mention working with metal is tedious and taxing work.
Apparently the Kingdom Death miniature range is perfect but from what I've been noticing trying to get anything Kingdom Death related right now is next-to-impossible.
Anyone have any suggestions of a good resin model range that has female heads that would fit on a Space Marine torso, or even a good conversion site that would carry such things?

Found some decent bald female heads at Hasslefree. If you really need the hair, you might try Shadowforge's kit for doing female Imperial Guard.
I think they're all metal, but at least they look good.

Microart Studios has some resin female heads, Brother Vinni has some gasmasked female heads. Meow Meow Minis makes heads, torsos, and legs for female space marines. Statuesque Miniatures has some helmeted female heads as well as a good line of other female figures to get more heads from.

Do you have links to these various websites? I'd be eternally grateful.

hmm hmm, me gusta! Seriously though, I don't like the heads much, look way to Mary Sue, but the torso's will be perfect for what I am doing. My guy's wear gas masks so you can't see there faces any ways, but I will green stuff braids, pony tails, whatever. Perfect for adding some... variety... to my regiment.

I can't find the MaxMini ones (not Microart actually) on their site, so they might be out of stock.
The rest are really pretty easy...google'd get you there

Brother vinnis female heads are if anything a touch too small for guardsmen so might look funky for SMs sadly. If you're not in a rush to get them, DFG's Black Widows have great heads imo, but they're plastic and don't come separately from the kit.

Sad news is that most producers of conversion parts have a fetish for Ork heads, not female heads, so there are almost none (and no perfect ones).

There are also these: http://basicks.eu/shop/index.php?id_product=207&controller=product (formerly microarts but they slit into two).
Alternatively there is the way of using some of the already existing GW ones like the wood elfs or dark eldar heads.

Aha! Those would be those ones I was looking for. Didn't realize those went along in the split.
