When Einbeck burned - Early 16th Century Civilians and Militia

(1/3) > >>

The Rogue:
Hello, Gentlemen,

I need your help.

I‘m searching for a miniature line which has models depicting civilians and city militia for a small German town in the year 1540.

The miniatures will be used for a holiday project with a group of kids in the StadtMuseum of Einbeck and afterwards maybe be part of an exhibition. The plan ist to do build a small board and play around a big fire which nearly destroyed the town, which was possibly be caused by agents in the pay of a nearby noble, because the city was one of the earlier ones declaring for Luther.

Here you can find more information https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stadtbrand_von_Einbeck#:~:text=Der%20Stadtbrand%20von%20Einbeck%20war,sie%20nicht%20aus%20Stein%20war.

I would really appreciate your help.

SJWi:
A few suggestions, although large ranges of "civilians" are pretty much non-existent. Steel Fist Miniature produces figures for the German Peasants War ( mostly armed), as do Artizan Designs. Eureka Miniatures produce some Italian Renaissance figures, some of which might pass for your period. The Assault Group (TAG) have a pack of "Tudor Women" in their Tudor range. TAG also produce a Maximilian Habsburg range. This doesn't include civilians but may have some figures you can use for militia.       

Friends of General Haig:
Hi The Rogue,

Warlord have some Landsknecht type civilians etc. in their Italian Wars range

SJWi:
Thanks for reminding me about these . I think they are another range that Warlord hoovered up from someone else.  I'm almost tempted myself.

The Rogue:
