A quick comparison of 28mm plastic Napoleonic foot
« on: 23 March 2021, 12:53:56 AM »
A few people asked about size comparison between the new Wargames Atlantic 95th Rifles and other 28mm plastic Napoleonic figures. So I put together a few Perrys and Warlord figures to get a direct size comparison. The results can be found here:  https://antonswargame.blogspot.com/2021/03/a-quick-comparison-of-28mm-napoleonic.html

Well done Anton but is it possible to do a pic or two of the 3 manufacturer's figures together?
I like the look of the Wargames Atlantic 95th they are on my list.
I am going to build a wargames army, a big beautiful wargames army, and Mexico is going to pay for it.

Thanks for the comparison. Good idea with the grid paper. I’d still like to see a group shot, too.

Thanks for the comparison shots and your fix for the left lock rifle.

Thank you, that comparison shot is much appreciated!

It also shows that pose has a lot to do with how tall miniatures actually. And I never expected there to be much difference between warlord Landwehr, Perrys and Warlord infantry in greatcoats, as I happily mix warlord and Perry French infantry without any difference apparent within units.
