North Star's GS43 Civilians are worth a look. The men are probably too wide of the mark, (at least not w/o a head swap) but the ladies might work. For Elizabethan village types, just about any Dark Age thru Medieval salt of the earth'y types ought to work. |

Acw civilians link Eurekaminiusa link Redountenterprises link Oldglory25s link Oldglory25s link Brigadegames link Perry miniatures link Wargames foundry link Brigadegames link Knuckleduster A good visual reference for acw civilian looks is the movie "Gangs of New York". Of course there are many good inspirations in other sources like " Gods and Generals", "Gettysburg", "Glory", and such.
If in need, some figures look right (in my opinion) from the American Revolution period, the Victorian period, and the Wild West period. Some of my links reflect this opinion.
There are more articles on this on TMP.

The most elusive acw civilians I know of are the "uncivil war" figures. No idea how to find them any more. |

Elizabethans: Hoka Hey link have some suitable Elizabethan civilians in their Border Reivers range. These were the Graven Images range and include the Baby-Eating Bishop of Bath & Wells. The Assault Group also have some in the English Tudor range: link Includes Blackadder types. There was another range of 28mm Reivers whose name escapes me for the moment. Eureka are probably worth a look too – they just launched all the characters from Romeo and Juliet. link or link You can always use figures from the Dixon range and some of the Foundry Seadogs will work as civilians. |
