1/35 Civilian – The Old Woman walking with Stick

Historical Context & Theme

This 1/35 scale civilian figure represents an often-overlooked reality of wartime and post-war Europe: the endurance of ordinary people. Depicting an elderly woman walking with the aid of a stick, this figure adds depth, emotion, and a powerful human presence to any WWII or post-war diorama. Whether representing a refugee, local villager, or a silent witness to history, this figure offers narrative richness beyond military subjects.

Figure Details & Realism

The set includes one elderly woman figure cast in high-quality resin, sculpted with exceptional attention to anatomy, posture, and clothing detail. The model is supplied with two alternate heads, allowing you to vary facial features or headgear for different scenes or storylines. The woman wears a long overcoat and scarf, with subtle fabric folds and period-appropriate footwear—elements that enhance realism and storytelling. Her walking stick adds both dynamism and authenticity to the pose.

Diorama & Display Use

Perfect for dioramas depicting wartime displacement, occupied towns, rural retreats, or post-liberation moments. The civilian presence enriches military scenes with emotional gravity and historical realism. She can be placed walking through debris, watching convoys pass, or simply moving through her village—each setup providing strong storytelling opportunities.

Material & Customization

Crafted in fine resin, this figure is ideal for weathering and aging effects such as faded clothing, mud, and dust. The interchangeable heads enable modelers to subtly change her age, emotion, or expression, enhancing flexibility for both solo display or larger group scenes.

Who It’s For

A perfect choice for modelers looking to break away from purely military subjects and add narrative realism to their scenes. Suitable for intermediate and advanced hobbyists focused on historical accuracy, human storytelling, and emotional depth in scale modeling.
