Since one can never have too many projects going at once, I've started to look ahead at possibilities for vignettes (or maybe "townspeople" for skirmish games? Hmmm...) involving civilians for my Seleucid/Greco-Bactrian armies.
I know Casting Room Miniatures have one set of Persian civilians, but beyond them, I'm coming up empty. Foundry have their great "Ancient Civilians" range, but all the ones that aren't of a specific ethnicity look mostly Roman to my eyes. Likewise, there are good options for
Roman civilians lately because of Gangs of Rome, but even Greeks seem harder to come by. Sure, a
chiton and a
tunica aren't thaaaat different, but I mean... verisimilitude is part of the fun, right?
On a somewhat related note, I recently learned of Dark Fable Miniatures who have an enormous range of Egyptian/Ptolemaic/Fantasy civilians, palace folk, and the like, but it looks like they've ceased taking orders because the owner passed away this year
