Help Finding a Miniature


Miniatures


I'm joining a campaign, and I'd like to find a fitting miniature for my new character. I prefer prepainted (plastic) but I'm willing to paint a metal mini if I need to. He is human, Mwangi, barbarian with a greatsword or polearm. I'd love any suggestions you can offer.

Browsing online for an image, I like the look of Ukafa, Bob Sapp's character from Conan the Barbarian.

uh
bob sapp was in that movie
but none of those pictures are him, they are nonso anozie

sapp was a bad guy named ufaka
anozie was a good guy named artus

but uh off the top of my head, try the Marcus miniature from Wyrd's Malifaux game. A bit of conversion work and he might do.

Thanks for the correction. I did have Anozie and Sapp's characters mixed up.


None are a perfect match but here are my suggestions:
Lion of Talisid from Wardrums
Longstrider Ranger from Angelfire
Xeph Warrior from Angelfire
Longtooth Barbarian from Aberrations
Vale Temros from Rise of the Runelords


Vale Temros is a good candidate. I can cut one of the two axes off, of course. Thanks for the suggestion.

I've used this for my polearm master.

That is really cool. A friend ran a guan dao monk.

Since this thread is already here, I'll add my request for help.

I need a non-elven female with a two-handed sword. I'd prefer a curved blade, but I'm not super picky. I'm also looking for a male with a weapon resembling a katana. I'd prefer pre-painted plastic, because I'm a lazy git and can't be arsed to trim, prime, paint a metal mini.


The only katana wielding miniatures that I'm aware of are samurai:
Red samurai – Dragoneye
Dragon samurai – Aberrations
If you don't want a samurai, male miniatures with two-handed swords are a dime a dozen.

For females with a two-handed sword, you can try:
Frenzied Berserker – Aberrations
Mighty Blademaster – Against the Giants
Kalashtar Bodyguard – Night Below
Warrior of Wrath – Rise of the Runelords

Yeah, the samurai won't work just because of the head piece. My male katana wielding ninja will probably end up with a kikko just for flavor, but the headpiece looks stupid.

For the female with the two-handed curved blade, I love the mighty blademaster. I wonder if I can find one for sale now...
