Can you help?
Evening all!
I am looking for suggestions for a figure to depict a Catherine the Great type monarch.On foot or horse back all suggestions gratefully received.
Many thanks
Alan
The new Minden 'Lady riding sidesaddle' with tricorne? Not known to be made on foot, unfortunately. Tradition / Spencer Smith may have the 'Old School' (sculpted in the "60) equivalent (see DAF's Milady de Winter), and her almost duplicate on foot.
Found more mounted ... though they are more medieval in nature:

ReplyDeleteGiven certain rumours about Catherine, I'm glad that you specified on horseback.

Black Scorpion's "Governor's Daughter" figure is nice and might serve your purposes.

There are a whole bunch of Game of Thrones minis that could do the trick:
