For the 'White Wolf' wanderer, this Copplestone fellow (https://www.forlornhopegames.co.uk/products/0290_2_swords) might fit the bill.

You might be able to use this guy (https://www.forlornhopegames.co.uk/products/0256_warchief_large_sword) as a starting point for the armoured Elric (maybe turn the crest into a dragon with green stuff).

If I remember correctly, Elric in Stormbringer has a visor on his helmet (or some sort of facial protection), though that's never shown in illustrations, it seems. He also has a big shield with the eight arrows of chaos on it (there must be an abundance of GW shields that will do for that).

There was actually a small line of Elric/Eternal Champion figures and I had a small boxed set of them (think I saw the Jerry Cornelius figure floating around a little while ago) but that was many years ago and I can't remember who the manufacturer was but you might want to search around for that. Best of luck.

I thought they had two figures in this style but only seem to have one now.  They have a few other elves but not quite the same llok

I haven't read the books but I thought that the "tragic hero" from this pack of Crooked Dice mini's was a straight copy
of Elric. https://crooked-dice.co.uk/product/fantasy-stars/ (https://crooked-dice.co.uk/product/fantasy-stars/)

Brother Vinni has a couple listed as "28mm", maybe worth a look.

I always liked how the illustrations made Stormbringer and its counterpart scimitars. Not often seen on heroic figuures.

My Elric was the Dragontooth P-8 High Elven Hero King (mounted and on foot) that is always found  in one form or another on my battlefields., but that Hasslefree Fellow sure has the look.

Gawd, I had a fair few of these way back when GW did the Stormbringer role play game.

Dark Sword Miniatures are on the tall side for 28mm I believe (correct me if I'm wrong) so this Elven Warrior (https://www.darkswordminiatures.com/shop/male-elven-warrior-with-long-sword/) might work.
