Whilst perusing a site on the Yeoman of the Guard I found this little bit
"The Great Review of the Army at Tilbury on the 5 August 1588 when Queen Elizabeth I, clad in armour, rode down the ranks and addressed them in stirring terms on the approach of the Spanish Armada which, as is well know, failed to invade these islands."
I thought wouldnt that make a great miniature for a hypothetical game of an battle during the Armada.
So doesn anything like this exist or somehting that could be converted?

I would go for a slender chap in Renaissance armour coupled with a thin faced female head.

Should be an interesting conversion.
