Looking for Fremen

[Nietzschie]

I\'ve had an idea floating around in my head for a couple of years now about building an Imperial Guard Army based on the Fremen from DUNE. The problem I have come across however is finding good miniatures to use as Fremen. I\'ve looked at Tallarn and they don\'t have the right feel, I\'ve tried Van Saar,but they just don\'t have enough minis for the variety needed. Does anyone out there know of a figure line that would work for what I\'m trying to do? I appreciate any help you guys could give me

LOL, some contemporary Taliban/middle-eastern insurgent types (with weapon swaps) would probably be closest in \"feel\" to Fremen. Or you could go for the bare stillsuits, which are basically just form-fitting bodysuits with a hood. I have no idea what GW minis would fill that description though!

Eldar guardians maybe?

 

[Shadzar]

do they have to be WYSIWYG IG minis? or are you just looking for something that has clothing similar to stillsuits?

GW did a Gang for Necromunda called Vansars or something like that..had still suit like looking uniforms.

I just read Dune the other week, it\'s a good read

While not GW, check out the Haqqislam from Infinity. They have some of the more \"Dune-ish\" miniatures I\'ve found recently.

Just checked out the Haqqislam,those look pretty good. I might be able to use them with a little conversion. Maybe mix in some Van Saar and I might just have enough variety for a decent sized IG army. Thanks for the assist guys. If you find anything else out there,let me know. Hero Clix and greenstuff sure as hell didn\'t work,lol.

Yes I was going to say House Van Saar but someone further on beat me to it. Scary to think that Necromunda is now 14 years old!
