Does anyone know of a manufacturer or 3D range that has models you could use as DE Witch Elves that are not scantily clad and / or ridiculously proportioned? Do they exist?

If they are not mostly naked and 90% T&A, are they even witch elves?

Consider dark eldar witches? They have some armor on them and are not quite as pin up?

Yeah, the 'scantily clad elf berserkers' is kinda their whole schtick. Any other female elven mini is either going to be obviously armored or obviously a spellcaster... and likely with various degrees of cheesecake added in.

Would be nice to have minis people don't roll their eyes at. I guess if I got DE I would probably do it without WEs

The dark elf range for Warhammer 1st and 2nd editions had some precursors to the witch elves that wore more plausible chainmail hauberks. Not sure if you want to track down such old figures, but maybe there are modern figures for D&D in a similar style: http://www.collecting-citadel-miniatures.com/wiki/index.php/Dark_Elf_(WHFB_1st/2nd_Edition)_-_Collectors_Guide" target="_new" rel="nofollow"> http://www.collecting-citadel-miniatures.com/wiki/index.php/Dark_Elf_(WHFB_1st/2nd_Edition)_-_Collectors_Guide

I have to say, I never got that reaction to mine. The WFB players I know understand that Witches are scantily-clad berserkers and that's just the way DE roll.

Of course, I can hardly say I know even a trivial percentage of WFB players, so take that for what it's worth.

Aren't fully clothed witch (a)elves just basic (a)elves?

Here are some wardancer proxies that you could maybe add a few spikes to
