Ladies of the Knight!!!
« on: 19 February 2017, 11:03:28 AM »
Now that I've got some Knights it's time to go a questing and adventuring. I've got a bunch of trolls, some orcs, a couple of dragons and wotnot for mi' lads to slay. What I don't have are any fair maidens to get rescued from the Black Knight's castle.
Does anyone make a Lady with one of them cone thingys on her melon?

I think Steve Barber designs have some ladies in their jousting range?

The old Exin castle blocks sets had a lady with that headgear - and as far as I remember, the few minis actually were about 28mm sized.

The descriptiuon here says 40mm, so I am not sure (I have 2 of the old sets, but I don't have the time to actually empty them and  find the figures right now)

One of the Damsels and the Fey enchantress from GWs old Bretonnian line had  fancy headgear I think? Might be worth an eBay search?

One of the Ral Partha ladies has exactly this outfit. Can't recall specifically which set. If you don't mind the smaller 25mm princess a couple others in the range are suitable as well.

I have this Ral Partha figure, just the right size (a bit smaller than Perry's plastic figures, so good for a woman). http://www.ralparthaeurope.co.uk/shop/ral-partha-fantasy-c-37/heroes-and-horrors-c-37_38/01018-ladies-3-hero-1-p-1214.html

Right, I've got Herself sorted. Next up is a kneeling Knight at prayer, I once saw one in somebody's fantasy range but can't recall where? I did find a Crusader type chappie in chain-mail... but i want a bloke in proper Sir Lancelot armour!

Iirc Grenadier had one in one of the fantasy warrior sets. Now with Mirliton but I can't  see it in any of their packs now. Iirc there was also one in the Ral Partha knights of the round table box set, or something similar. I have both, lovely figs without the foam power armour so common now.
