A matter of scale

Nice work mate, they fit well with the new Wargames Atlantic 10mm range - look forward to seeing the castle walls

Definitely looks good!
 
The new WA 10mm minis are on my tempation list to use with Peter Pig's Battles in the Age of War.

Just googled about a bit for Boshin War minis in 10mm and found a suggestion thread over on the Pendraken Forum and added my vote there.

Looks good

For mass battle games, I like 6mm buildings with 10mm figures - gives you more of the look of a settlement rather than just the odd house. As long as the figures don’t tower over the buildings I think the scale difference works.

I just had a quick look but how and where do you add votes as I'd be interested in this as well.

Appears that you just add a comment to the suggestion thread, and then Leon adds to his running tally.

Also appears that this was my first active post on the Pendraken Forum.  I used to be moderately active on the old Blitzkrieg Commander Forum, signed up for Pendraken when it moved over there, but hadn't actually posted there before now.

Works well, what I do with my 10 (12?) mm SYW figures - 6 mm buildings.

But when are you going to produce a range of 15 mm Chinese buildings!?  I think it would be great and might - but only might I'm afraid - tempt me.   Not lack of interest or lack of funds, just lack of space and WAY too much already for hobby.

I'd be interested in Chinese buildings of 15mm or smaller; I've been working at some Taiping stuff on and off for years...

I started the masters a while ago but they're a bit down the list as there are other things I want to get done first. Certainly not forgotten though.

Well, just in case, my interest would mostly be in proletarian architecture for Peking and rural environments.  I pretty much have Peking's other building types covered from another source (including six legations - one extemporized from other components).  Though a little bit of the Imperial Palace grounds might tempt me.
