Need some ideas for street people characters
« on: October 04, 2020, 02:04:01 PM »
Heya,

I am preparing some characters for my players but cannot find any street people models:
beggars, drifters etc (1920's period).
Any ideas which manuracturer might run such models?

Thanks for help!

Pulp miniatures would be my first port of call.
That said I've several sets of refugees off for casting at the moment. Which might prove useful(You'd have to ask 1st corps for a release date as its not my domain.)

Wargames Atlantic have a new set they're working on, French resistance WW2, which given they'll be plastic might be easily converted to unarmed civilians.

I don't actually have any photos of them(and its not quite what you asked about.)So I didn't mention them . But there is in fact two refugee horse drawn carts and a 1930's car with a heavily laden roof rack and boot.I know you said twenties with the wire wheels it could be early enough for the mid to late 20's.( the photo is basically the same body as the laden refugee car if that helps)
