I've got a pair of these awesome mounts

(Ral Partha AD&D Dark Sun "11-702 Crodlu Riders") but they need new riders. I'm looking for separate riders, but if it's not too expensive, I might even be willing to buy horse and rider just for the riders.

What I'm hoping to find is two riders that are similar in style, but different sculpts representing travelers, scouts, or adventurers in traveling clothes.

I'm not looking for:
-barbarians in skimpy clothes
-Knights in armor
-Archers, though if one had a bow, it might be ok.
-Samurai (though monks might work)
-Skeletons

So far the best I've found is a couple of Saracens (thankfully without armor) from Black Tree Designs. Not exactly what I want, but close enough to work and nicely priced.

The best 25mm Traveller riders I've ever seen came in a boxed set of Traveller Alien Animals from Grenadier about 30 years ago:

Unfortunately, the boxed set is long OOP, and it tends to go for big bucks when it comes up on Ebay.

I should have been more clear, I don't need "Traveler" the game, rather models of Travelers or traveling fantasy types.

Neat figs though.

Ah, I was wondering why this was in Fantasy. That's different, then.

:)

Let me do some looking.

You could check out more Ral Partha/Iron Wind Miniatures as they will be compatible, otherwise ebay would be a good bet. I'm guessing that you are looking more for 25mm rather than 28mm?
The Ral Partha pair from dangerous journey are quite decent:

or Iron Winds Moors

Their Carolingians would have been ideal, but they seem to have disappeared.
