Default Knight Roughout

I have searched far and low for a roughout of a knight I'm interested in doing this fantasy set for my lil boys with a castle as the main piece but no luck so far. If y'all could point me in the right direction I'd be much abliged!

Found this book by Shawn Cipa titled "Carving Fantasy and Legend in wood", anyone have this book or heard of it? It is not available near me I would have to get it shipped and I don't want to waste the money if I can avoid that.

There are many on the forum that have the book including me. It is a very popular book. If you're interested in Wizards, Dragon's, a beautiful Witch, Mermaid, Winged Lion and other mystical beings and you want to carve them from patterns...........get it. It's a great book. There are no Knights or Castle's in this book but all of the kids that look at the pieces carved from this book love them.

Woodchip that link didnt show much I have found this
Hudson & Allen Studio 25mm Scale Model Desert Fortress

this will be my basis for the castle

and
FOUNDRY make the best small metal cast models for gamers, collectors and painters. choose your region...
I will use a few of these to redo in basswood in 28mm scale

roghouts would be nice but I think this might just be a bit more of a challenge and a test I thank the folks that posted.
