Help with figure comparisons - Boot Hill, Foundry, Perrys, Artizan

[dr beard]

Hi y'all,

After a couple of years absence/abstinence I'm just getting back into Old West gaming. Looking at my collection I'm veering away from the Artizan later West types that I started with, and getting more into the Civil War and earlier figures.

I have all the Perrys civilians from their ACW range and a few Mike Owen sculpted Foundry Old West figures which fit ok in general and was wondering how the Boot Hill and Artizan Alamo range would fit with these?

I have a lot of the Artizan Old West and Victorian and they vary a lot from really skinny Apaches to massive figures like the Bill Sykes and wonder whether they'll dwarf the Perrys with their lovely proportions.

Thanks for the help

HI,

Here is a shot showing my Boot Hill Texians alongside Artizan Alamo figures and several of the Mike Owen later Foundry figures. I think they blend very well.

The original Wargames Foundry Old West figures by Copplestone were almost true 25mm scale, so will be smaller. I think the Perry ACW figures will blend fine height wise, as I use the Perry Carlist war civilains, they are very similar.

Hi Malamute,

Thanks for taking the time to post these.  Splendid work, just the sort of thing I'm working towards so I'll save those photos if that's ok as inspiration.  All the ranges that I queried all blend very nicely.

Cheers
Andy

If you go for the ACW mixed with Old West (for example Kansas and Missouri guerrillas fighting regulars) try also Redoubt Enterprises (ACW) and some Renegade (also ACW).
