I have not played a warhammer 40k battle in 6 years due to various reasons. Now that things have sorted themselves back out, I am planning a return with my miniatures that I have not sold (thank goodness) but I want to expand and make it a unique army.
To be brief, it has a ww2, ww1 feel but I want to make it more unique. With that, I am looking for a particular miniature. I am looking for a nurse like figure as seen in this 10 year old drawing that is not mine.

Any ideas, suggestions, anything?

Maybe look through Hasslefree's catalog. They do several female SF troopers that might work.

Shadowforge might have something like.

They do all females. Got a few scouts and troopers for my own mix sci-fi

There are some odd nurse/medic types in the infinity range.

If you are a kit-basher then
Victoria
Statuesque
maxmini

I'd recommend Maxmini or Victoria minis, maybe Hasslefree.

Infinity or Statuesque will look very out of place in comparison, as they're close to true scale.

I hate to point at something relatively pricey,
but Rogan gosh … I mean "Raging Heroes"
has these in there 'Toughest Girls in the Galaxy' line.
They look pretty close to what you're referencing….

I think maybe Doc von X with unmasked head might be closest…?

They do show up on EvilBay regularly;
I picked up a full set of Jailbirds second-hand quite reasonably.
They really are quite nice figs, IMO.

Similairly, Warzone Resurrection has Neoclone Dr Diana:

Brother Vinni has this offering:

A little modern perhaps,
but not as over the top as Ragin' 'Roes or WarZone.

Additionally, Bolt Action has an actual Russian WWII Female medic in their command squad:

Finally, SpellCrow has a 28mm female medic in their Gangster line:

A ditto on Raging Heroes.

How customizable are the ones from Raging Heroes?
Again, thank you, everyone for your suggestions.

royalpain8822 Nov 2016 10:20 a.m. PST

I am thinking maids but all that I could find are ones that are … NSFW or borderline close to it and ones with mops and such in hand. Any ideas?

As someone suggested Warlord's medic, Bad Squiddo also have a range of WW2 Russian women which includes a medic, but it's not a very 40K range. You'd need to add some floating servo-skulls and maybe give her a ridiculously oversized bolt pistol with a skull on the side. Maybe add on some head-tubes or a fancy hat.

Could probably look through the rest of her site – she sells a bunch of female models from a whole load of manufacturers, with convenient reference photos.

link for instance? Not exactly battlefield-practical, far too stylish, but still got the bag.

I think I might go with "Roggin Shibolz" myself, they are after all pretty much designed to be "Wh40k with added boobies". That said, Dark Age has a couple of medic types that might work in a pinch, tho you may be hard pressed to pass them off as being regular part of a Wh40k force and/or just be generally offended by their fetishist aesthetics:

Friends don't let friends Gee Dubs.
Don't do it. Gee Dubs is overpriced for what it is. Find another game and convert a model into a cute nurse. Perhaps a Infinity reverend healer proxy with a cute nurse would work?

This is just my opinion. If you really like Gee Dubs you can ignore my pleading.
