Title: BA Nationalist Chinese Infantry
Post by: drownte on June 07, 2017, 02:14:45 AM

So I'm working on a Bolt Action Chinese Army and I'm using Brigade Miniatures German equipped Chinese infantry to represent said units from those divisions. However I need Warlord Troops, I mean normal Nationalist troops! So I was gonna use some models from the republican infantry range. Some of their caps are close and the Chinese wore Adrian helmets. However, I'm not sure of the difference in scale between the two.... Anybody had any experience?

Following up to the post you also made on my blog.

EDIT:  Sorry about that; not sure what is going on.  I can't seem to get the images to show here, but here are the links

Here are the Brigade figures with both metal and plastic Bolt Action Japanese:

Sir, Thank you! They match up perfectly! Did you modify the Chinese troop's bases? With the dime or is that normal height? Sorry not a stalker but google tells me you are one of two options for a WW2 Chinese Army. Also could I get a comparison of empress minis to the China at war range if anyone out there has the two? I apologize for being so demanding but my Army will be a mix of central army German divisions and Northern warlord (wu pei fu/ Zhang Xueliang) remenants. I want Adrian's and those stiff kepi's on my non-Chiang troops.

No worries. I did pad the bases for both the Chinese and the Japanese figures with washers (about 2mm), so as to better match the larger Copplestone Chinese I had in my collection. But they seemed pretty comparable with each other, with the Brigade slightly smaller. I don't have any of the Empress figures from the Spanish range, but their Boers run on the small side like the Brigade figures.
