Is anyone aware of a good, 1920-30s, southern baptist preacher type miniature?

Heresy has this one in its SF range:


Not really 30's but not specialy modern either.

Citadel did a couple of nice priests back in the 80's, but they might be hard to find.

There is a good one in the Call of Cthulhu range. It is part of the three stage charactor pack of priests. I painted him up as a Zombie though.

How about this guy from Knuckleduster (the fellow pointing): http://www.knuckleduster.com/store/cart.php?target=product&product_id=377&category_id=30

Sure, he's from an old west collection, but I think he'll fit in the 20s and 30s South just fine painted up in white togs.
If you're looking specifically for Southern Baptist, I suggest a miniature pointing with a Bible rather than a crucifix.

A nice new one made by Mr Hicks:

From the Pulp threads (sorry about the re-post  ;)):

Hi,

Today we have 3 new scuplts by the very talented Paul Hicks.

Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition.  ;)
