I've been asked about how some of the miniatures I use scale against other manufacturers, so here goes ...

The non-suited figures I have used for comparisson in the photos are, from left to right: Eureka, Artizan, Brigade Games, Copplestone.


Projekt X British dreadnaught suit (North Star/Scarab Miniatures), SotR British Steel (Westwind), Warmachine Khador Man-O-War (Privateer Press):


Scheltrum deep sea diver, Eureka Impervious Suit, Recreational Conflicts:


Warzone Bauhaus Vulkan battlesuit (Prince August), Parroom Station US suit (Brigade Games):

Thank you for this very useful post.

I really want one of those Parroom Station US Suits now!
And the Scarab miniatures suits don't get shown much any more but they really are nice!

What you have listed as a Paroom Station's suit is actually a part of Recreational Conflicts' (Lead Bones line) Hard Suit without its' arms and weapons.

I think you read the captions wrong mate.  :D

The comments are above the pics.

Simple mistake though.  :D

Great idea Dave, well done. I am interested in the SoTR Suits, I think you might have done some work on it?

Yeah, I did a double take when I read it the first time. You're not alone.  :D

Great resource. Thank you!

Actually very little work - all I did was change the head and fit the governor from a Eureka impervious suit to the figure's engine/back pack. The SotR figure is armed with a Boyes anti-tank rifle, so I didn't even have to change the weapon.
