Comparison Photo Request: Victrix Knights Vs WGA Knights
« on: 20 June 2025, 05:20:02 PM »
Does anyone have a side by side comparison of these two minis? I like both and want to see how well they mix together.

Hi Hoblyman.  Are you looking for a comparison for mounted or dismounted ?  If you can a few days I should be able to help with a comparison of the mounted knights.  I recently purchased a couple of sprues of the WGA and Victrix mounted knights to do this exact exercise.  I need to finish gluing a couple of them up, but once I do I'll get a photograph posted. 

First impressions are that the horses scale pretty well, although the Victrix are finer and more animated, similar to Perry WOTR horses, although the saddles are very wide and look oversized to me.  The WGA horses are in more static poses and have chunkier legs.  Conversely the WGA mounted knights are considerably smaller than the Victrix knights, which are on the large size of standard 28mm to my eyes.

Nothing I find offensive there I would happily use them both together even on the same base.
Of course if I painted them up they would look equally crap anyway and all differences would disappear  lol
I am going to build a wargames army, a big beautiful wargames army, and Mexico is going to pay for it.

I think I agree.  Although the Victrix knight is quite a lot bigger, the difference isn't immediately obvious, as the horses are a pretty good match.

Shape and length of WGA horse neck look very odd for me, beside that both minis are pretty ok side by side.
