Hunchback mini?

Oswald the Overladen from Reaper is a bit hunched, but that's only because he's carrying absolutely every item that might be useful in a town or dungeon. ;-)

GW put out some Mordheim guys in the Undead box who have hunchbacks. With some conversion they might become Clerics. I suspect they are cast in a single piece though, judging by how the Cult box was cast. Which means Dremel conversion required.

If that sort of conversion is too much, I think putty might be the plan. You should be able to build a lumpy, misshappen hump without too much artistic skill.
 

Yes! Although I don't think I'm much help beyond that. I don't remember the manufacturer.

Several years ago, I found a hunchbacked figure for my 2e character, Grark, the mongrelman rogue. The only thing the figure carried was a set of keys. He had a very discernable hunchback, was bald and wore animal skins. It was the only figure in the package, and was marked for a series of commoners, not adventurers. I seem to remember other commoners (bar maids, guys with ale mugs) and a building set of an inn.

I'm amazed I remember that much! Perhaps you could check out some of the figure manufacturer web sites.
 


Yes, I've got one at home. I don't think he would work very well for a cleric though. It's an old Grenadier Miniature from the mid-80s, from the Folklore Creatures of the Night miniatures box set. He's got a VERY prominant hunchback, a twisted up face, and is carying a big shovel. Unless the cleric is out digging up bodies, I don't think he'd work. :)

Yeah, I've got that box. Definantly some of the best undead figs ever.

I always recommend my players have a shovel with them. That way they can give people proper burials instead of having to float their bodies down the nearest river.
 

There was a Warhammer Quest expansion box that included an excellent hunchback mini.

Can't remember the name of the set, though.

It had a Necromancer and some undesd guards as well as a Liche-lord on a throne of sorts.

Good luck!
