So I'm starting up a Pathfinder group this monday and I would like to have a sweet model for my character. I'm modelling it (in terms of looks) liike the MTG Fiendslayer Paladin card, which is pretty awesome. I can't seem to find a model mayde by a specific company that fits the bill, but if anyone can point me in another direction that'd be swell.

I was going to say Dartan, the character paladin in war machine, but his helmet isn't full face, and his shoulder pads would need to be removed, so he probably isn't all that good.

I wish I had time for all the game systems I own, let alone want to own... |

Take a look for metal Griffin Templars or Griffin Praetorian Guard, from Confrontation.
They are all OOP now unfortunately, so you'll have to track them down or look at "other sources" but are similar to the art and are phenomenal miniatures in their own right.

I had a peek at the Empire range too when I saw the request, but they are really, really different from what he wants sadly. I thought the captain with the greatsword might be alright, but alas, he was too Empire-y

Do we have to google "MTG Fiendslayer Paladin" to help you?

I think the model would work if you converted it to wear heavier.
Also Mcninja if you don't mind the price then Theodore on foot with a berotiannon helmet seems good.

The only thing is that you'd have to check a split box as he comes
in a starter with a nun figurine.

Pretty sure you wont find anything that would work in the GW catalog...at least not without a lot of conversion.
That style is far removed from GWs take on fantasy, not to mention there is little reason to pay the premium if you will end up having to hack it to bits and resculpt half the figure.
Reaper's search function is a good starting point. Using the terms "male plate sword" gives you 250 or so options to click through. About half those can be skipped without closer inspection, either because they are an obvious non-human or the plate is obviously a different style.
Dont focus too hard on the paladin part, as I think this guy is a good match.

There was also an anti-paladin by Ral Partha that looked similar, I think. Let me rummage....
It would need a head swap, I think.
