The Female Figure (So to say...)

[Aldramelech]

A group of guys got together a while back and commissioned a limited run of Cadian females (Plastic). I saw some on Ebay a while back and they were excellent. You could see they were female, chests bulging under the flak Armour, wider hips, excellent heads. I instantly wanted them, but unfortunately the last time I looked they were going for £100 for ten figures!
Never seen any since.

Forgeworld should be doing exactly this sort of thing.

yeah just found them, they look great, although a little thin on the waist. im convinced it wouldnt take much to convert up a few cadian models to be female. will have to give that a go soon

GW, please produce a female Striking Scorpion, Fire Dragon, Dire Avenger, Dark Reaper, Warp Spider and Swooping Hawk. Just to be fair, please produce a male Howling Banshee.

in the hobby section of the rule book did you see the female warp spiders? Looked great and loved to convert my own squad, but how?

[the one]

But I do find it strange that games-workshop seem to have started with some female eldar in the guardians and then just forgot about females. (except for some of the harlequins and the banshees). I mean how hard can it be to make make a female autarch, or the other aspects at least.

I wish I had heard of that at the time, late 2007 was when I was thinking of making a female Cadian army if I could, led by a lady comissar named Joan of Cadia. Reading through the comments it occurs to me that those who think a woman will fit into a mans armour have never tried to actually put a female in a mans armour. It isn't just that we are a different size, we are a different shape. We go in at the waist and out at the hips and chest, and compression is rather limited. I've worn some modern kevlar armour issued to British troops, and while it could fit me it would not sit right and bounced all over the place when I moved because the bottom hit the hips but couldn't be anchored to the waist properly (a bit hard to explain this without pictures perhaps).
Here is a picture of a female US marine in Iraq, shameless harvested from a news website:

Doesn't look male to me.

Female guardsmen? I know there are many females in PDF's (Planetary Defence Forces) but not in IG... either you got those two things confused or I lack some vital knowledge

[eldargal]

Actually, reading through the latest IG codex, the section about Cadia no where does it split recruitment along gender lines and on several ocassions says that the ENTIRE planetary population is destined for military service, with a great many (without specifying sex) drafted into the Imperial Guard.

Arkfatalis, they are nice heads, but with only two choices an army of guardswomen would get a bit monotonous.

Yes but you could use the bodies and use heads from other models such as necromunda or demonettes and use a bit of green stuff
