What scale Will....if 28 then the Boudica figure in the Vitrix Celtic Charriot would do you. Yes I know well out of period. Also look at various fantasy ranges.

My first thought was one of the three Tiriel figures from Hasslefree.

There's Tiriel praying her player actually wins for once

Or there's Tiriel in action

Or there's Tiriel praying the army will be sold to someone who knows how to win :)

I was hoping 10mm. May use modified Tudor personalities?
But I can always raid Hasslefree for female characters.

How female do you need her to be, if that's not an odd question!  We've got all sorts in armour where you'd not notice if the wearer was male or female.  There's a few female witch types in the Fantasy ranges, we've got Kiera in not very much, and there's some upcoming Amazons which might be suitable?

Wearing armour, a figure cannot be VERY female! lol.  But a Head without helmet can be very well done... also pose. Weapons not TOO oversized.
I have long been a Fan of the 'Ash... a Secret History' novel by Mary Gentle.

Maybe a slightly enlarged breastplate then, and longer hair.
Oh can't we have Gwendolyn Christie in armour please.
Although as Lucifer in Sandman is a perfect piece of casting.

In 10mm scale I don't think you'd see much difference between Brienne of Tarth and Sandor Clegane or Jaime Lannister. The paintjob would be the distinguishing feature. Unless details are wildly exaggerated.

Quote. . . we've got Kiera in not very much . . .

That figure would make a good stand-in for Arya Stark*, but painted as fully clothed.


* Yes, I am on a Game of Thrones kick at the moment

There is also a vid clip of 'Vikings' Lagertha... which absolutely  'captures' character'... on one of the discs. Sadly, cannot link or post
'Combat Pose' is Perfect!

Pic reminds me of the "chunkiness" difference between Pendraken and its competitors starting with LG or MM
or between BT, I and Pendraken the other way.  So just get your females from the smaller range to your main forces.  Add hair and other distinguishing features with green stuff if needed?

Greenstuff it is!
