Question about Freebooter Minis size

[gauntman]

I'm considering a rather expensive female human sculpt from Freebooter mini range.  Can any of you give me an idea how they compare size wise to other ranges we commonly employ (Artizan, Copplestone, Pulp Figs, etc.)?

Any help appeciated.

The dancer in this post was like a VERY tall woman among normal men...

In my experience, Freebooter figures are huge in scale (more like 32mm than 28mm). I've got the sexy sorceress with the demon emerging from beneath her trenchcoat and she towers above other figures. Would not be a match for Copplestone/Artizan/Pulp Figures IMHO. Larger lines like Hydra Miniatures, repainted Heroclix, etc. are more debatable...

In my opinion they go very well together with Artizan, Foundry, Black Scorpion and the like. I combined old west and pirate ranges. Werner Klocke has a very recognizable sculpting style, but they really match the other brands. Hasslefree and Darksword are smaller though...

I was considering purchasing

Sooo we think it will be too big???  And tower over the others or not

They are rather expensive here in the states I'd hate to fork out all that cash if it's way off scale.

I'm very fond of Werner Klocke's work (although his tendency to sculpt every figure with their chin tucked into their chest can be maddening... ). Aren't Black Scorpion figures significantly larger than their Artizan and Foundry counterparts? I've always heard that they didn't make a good match on the tabletop.

That's at least two.  I appreciate it guys, I guess I'll end up passing on her.

That's for saving me from the frustration and $.

She´s a pretty figure, in fact very tempting to paint. If I should I buy and paint her, I promise to take comparison shots...

Michi,

I agree it's tempting...  I'd think I'd rather enjoy painting her if she was only in scale.  Thanks for the input and please post some pics if you do end up purchasing her.

I PERSONALLY think that she works ok with Pulp Figs and Artizan's Thrilling Tales stuff.

I have her, and she is about 29mm from foot to eye...  Whats 1mm?.. IMO that is...

[gauntman]

Damn!  Your making me consider taking the plunge again.  
That is such a neat looking mini.

Foot to eye? 

I couldn't get you to post a comparison shot could I?

Money's tight and it's hard to justify spending 13 USD on a single miniature when it might look too far off scale.
