Interesting, as my own latest purchased figurens are civilians from the same time period. Besides have been reading on my tablet Troels-Lund's Dagligt liv i Norden i det 16:de århundrede, especially the volume on costume

The figures are mostly inspired by the book "Zur geschichte der kostum" from Braun and Schneider issued in 1880
This book has been a source for a lot of flats and it is not very rare and can be found for reasonable price
I recommand it
