Ok, figure arrived so promised picture showing a few height comparisons.
I did have a few Brigade Games minis but they were tiny.
Left to right, Front Rank, North Star, Black Pyramid, Perry Miniatures, Warlord Games, Tangent Miniatures.
My observations:- These are obviously all Rifles. Front Rank mini doesn’t work for me, I tend to look at the guns first for comparison as real soldiers vary in height, but their weaponry is standard. His rifle is simply too short compared to the others.
The Warlord Games chap was a freebie with the Black Powder rule book, I’m not convinced he’s necessarily the same as their other metal rifles (he’s wearing a pack for one) but if he is, I like them.
My favourites are Perry miniatures which fit well with the North Star and I think with the Sharpe character. The Tangent “Harper” is a bit taller, but tbh, he should be!
The Black Pyramid mini is slightly bent forward making him appear slightly smaller maybe, but his head is slightly bigger. Personally I would have absolutely no problem playing him among this company.
