The Ruins of the Boston Commonwealth

Hello Dakkadakka! It has been many a month since I have been on here regularly, but I need your help! We've started using minis in my campaign for visual aides, and I want one that really fits my character well. She's a Half-Elf fighter, usually wielding either a crossbow or a two-handed sword. I've included some pictures in the spoilers below as for an idea of what I'd ideally like. My own searches have turned up nothing so I go to the internet for help!

Spoiler:






That's the kind of armor I'm looking for, heavy armor, chain-mail, plate-mail, heavier stuff like that. Longer hair and preferably single sword or two-handed sword over anything else, but I'll take what I can get at this point. I'm fine with any mini that's roughly D&D scale. Doesn't matter if it's Reaper, GW, or any other company so long as it's not like $30 for the single mini. Painted or unpainted, again doesn't matter, I'm going to paint it myself.

This is the task I beg of you Dakkadakka! Please! Help me find the perfect Mini for my Mergoux!

I just did a quick search on the Reaper Figure Finder, it turned up about 70 models but here's my pics:

A couple from Red Box Games, no women with swords but I've found one with a crossbow and one that carries a mace but could easily be given a sword as well.

The Battle Barge Buffet Line

I agree with the Reaper recommendations above and would add that (at least last time I checked) they had a detailed search engine for their line where you can specify the sex, armor, and weapons you're looking for iirc. Additionally, I'd add this line also to peek at:

Thanks for all the suggestions everyone! I'll be honest, having never actually shopped from reaper, I didn't know a thing about the detailed search function, so thanks for that!

Pretty sure I've got all the resources I need to pick the right mini, but I won't say no to anyone else who has suggestions!

Adrift within the vortex of my imagination.

While most are not what you might cal appropriate minis, so of Brother Vinnis more serious work could help.

Saw the first image and immediately thought of this:

n'oublie jamais - It appears I now have to highlight this again.

It is by tea alone I set my mind in motion. By the juice of the brew my thoughts aquire speed, my mind becomes strained, the strain becomes a warning. It is by tea alone I set my mind in motion.
