Warriors for a girl!

[Sangennaru]

Well.. the thread title is kinda generic, but i'm actually trying to find the appropriate race for a little warband (maybe only one model) for a friend of mine. She's a naturalist, and she loves animals, but she also doesn't mind gore (she liked the Kingdom Death pieces, her guts are better than mine!).


i firstly thought of Wolfen from the RIP Confrontation, but apparently it's pretty hard to have them for a good price.

Then the trollblood of Hordes (warmachine - privateer press), or the crocodiles from Warlord of Aegyptus... any other suggestions?


Just humanoid animals. Possibly badasses.
thanks!

crocodiles from Warlord of Aegyptus... any other suggestions?

Nay, the Basti (cats) from aegyptys will probably please a woman more than reptiles could...

[dijit]

There must be loads of anthromorphic minis in the reaper and ral Partha catalogues. That'd be my first place to look.

she likes kingdom death GORM, so i think that more badass the better it is

Try the link in my signature, various female human-animal things.

Wolfen- if the prepainted plastic ones are acceptable- can be found relatively cheap at http://www.ludikbazar.com/index.php?cPath=460_4271_4382_4386 , postage is a bit more expensive but depending on what/ how much you buy it's still worth it. not for a single mini though.


Fenris have some nice anthropomorphic minis + some lovely fishy deep ones.

Slap Miniatures has a couple of anthropocritters as well.

Otherworld Miniatures is well worth a closer look as well, Frogmen, Lizardmen, various were creatures (Wilderness Encounters), Gnolls, Troglodytes, Bug Warrior thingies (Dungeon Monsters).

Might be worth having a look at some FantasyFootball minis as well, Impact sells quite a few ranges (http://www.impactminiatures.com/ ).

If roughly Goblin sized is ok, Four A sells some fishy sea demon types.

I guess you're looking for something slightly less 'classic' Beastmen, but if you decide to choose that path, then Heresy has quite a nice Minotaur.

There's some more buffalo like Minos by Cenotaphe.

WarmaHordes features some Gatoremen and pigpeople as well.

Michi- I'd say that greatly depends on the woman in question. Somebody'd give me a box of cats, I'd flog 'em on ebay.

You are probably quite right. I know a lot who love cats, but none who don´t, however there must be some...

I'm not quite sure if I still have them but IIRC I used to have a couple of female Wolfen from Conf. If I still do have any, I might be willing to swap for something I can actually use.

Bushido has some, even anthropomorphic, characters like a fox lady.

I think the big Crocs faction regularly allies itself w. the Basti in Wargods ala the fluff in the game. Nice excuse to buy both!

Dark Sword Miniatures

Echoing Sir Barnaby's suggestion, here is a link:

They do suffer from the "too pricey" thingy, but they are cool.

[Sangennaru]

thanks guys! I'll submit the option to her!

i might be interested anyway!

My suggestions:
Beastmen (GW).



Fishmen, e.g.
Bog trogs (Privateer Press) & River Trolls (GW) (work well together)


Dryads (convert up pretty well with GW demonette parts:


Something from Dark age games "Brood" faction, they have a number of cool evil looking items.




Converted Kroot (GW)
e.g.

Reaper miniatures Reptus are really cool:


Oh and if you have a bit of cash to spend and don't mind the fact that they originated as maelstrom games, there is always meirce miniatures, loads of great looking evil dudes there.

Ask her and avoid getting something bad.
