Mr Curtis, do you have a spare guest pass for the Lounge? |

No, but I have a rail, a bucket of tar, and a basket of feathers. |

Wow, I like those figs! Nicely done. Did you paint them? I have some Old Glory and Clan War figs buy have worked on my 20mm figs for larger scale battles. But I do like the paint job on the figs in those pics. Thanks, John |

In real life all warriors are not the same height. So a slight variation in height of castings should not be an issue. The main thing I look at is the body style. often thin body styles do not look right next to castings with a bulky or thick body. |

I agree with Rudy: even a 3 or 4 mm difference in *height* is OK at 28mm scale (1.5mm if 15mm scale), because there's a big difference in heights. Miyamoto Musashi was 5'6" or so, when most of the rest of the country was only 5' even. I stand 4" taller than my dad, who is 4" taller than his dad. 4" is enough difference to see over the top of someone's head. the key is to have a similar style to the different heights of minis. If one manufacturer makes "skinnies," they're not going to look right next to someone else's "sumo wrestlers". |
