Can anyone suggest a suitable source of figures for the archers of the Blackroot Vale (GW or not)? The archers of Numenor seem a bit heavily armoured to me, but maybe other people have better ideas. The use of Rangers seems a bit like cheating, and I'm not a big fan of the face masks in any case. Why would archers who fight in the open field smother themselves with cloaks, and ponce about shooting from their knees? The Duinhir model looks good, but the GW command group doesn't do a lot for me.

Thanks

Here are a few from Gripping Beast. I like particularyly the first two, but also check out Perry Miniatures, they may well have something more towards what your vision of Middle Earth is.
