Dragonborn model/mini any suitable ones available?

[Ginnel]

So Dragonborn, I know they aren't popular with everyone but has anyone found an appropriate minature to represent one, myself I'm looking for a fighter in chain/plate with two handed weapon/shield and weapon.

I've had a look about and most lizardmen/dragon men seem to be a bit primitive although I quite like reaper miniature's reptus sergeant

I don't mind painting figures myself and I'm actually kinda itching to try my hand at it again after around 10 years.

P.S Oh yeah I tend to think they should have tails as well and that tieflings should have more traditional devil tails rather than the whole sea monster fin tail

Not out yet, but soon.

The War of the Dragonqueen dragonborn would probably work, even though it is the 3e dragonborn.

I'm using the gold champion from the Dragoneye set for KotS.

For proxies, look back to the pair of draconians in the Dragoneye set.

There's also a Troglodyte Captain from the Underdark set. That one might be your best bet - it's an inexpensive uncommon from a relatively recent set.

Thanks for all the suggestions, The one I really like so far is the dragonborn from war of the dragonqueen I think a friend of mine has a purple worm so I know he has some from the set that dragonborn came from so I'll have a scavange through his minis while I get some money together for some paint and figures.

In the meantime I can use the draconian in the blue cloak which I know my friend has

Why not get a Sauron Hero from Warhammer's Lizard range. They probably come with different weapons and if it's for your PC well, you'll get a lot of use out of it (otherwise you can always buy a boxed set of them)

I've checked them out and unfortunately they still have that primitive look to them, I suppose I could add plate with some sculpted putty but I've never used the stuff before and I know my artistic skills aren't the best

the dragonborns which are coming up in the D&D minis aren't very impressive in my book and the bronze/gold coloured skin is a bit of a turn off for me as well as the one with a bone sword.

Hahahaha! Nice one.

This is also a good fig (looks like you can choose which weapons to use, and the wings are optional).

I've used the Redspawn Arcaniss and the Greenspawn Zealot from DDM as dragonborn. I've also got some re-based Mage Knight draconum figures for that purpose.
