I've (finally) added a 15mm Renaissance Manufacturers directory to my website, to complement the 15mm Ancients one It's online here at link You can rate the quality of any of the manufacturers there and it helps create a rating for other gamers to use. Please let me know (via the email address on the page) if I have missed any manufacturers, or indeed any of the ranges. Thanks Tim |

Very useful madaxeman, not sure if its a browser thing (I'm running explorer for my sins) but only half the 'rating' lines and buttons are showing eg. I can only see the top half of 'excellent', 'very good' etc, though the button does work for me. It would be great to get some comparison pictures up if possible. Some new manufacturers to me! |

I actually don't have a big enough amount of Renaissance stuff myself to start adding a decent spread of figure photos, but most of the manufacturers seem to be better at having photos online than in the Ancient period.. I've tried it in explorer 8, but I don't seem to have a problem with it…. hmmm..? |

Hi madaxeman, no worries, I'm on IE8 as well, probably just my creaky laptop doing something weird again! |

What Timbo said about the site buttons. |
| madaxeman | 25 Apr 2011 5:14 a.m. PST |
OK – I've tweaked it so the frames that the ratings peep through are larger – has that fixed it ? |

Hi madaxeman, oddly some OK (Acies, Fire&Sword, Lancashire, Peter Pig, Eureka, Falcon) most still iffy! |

Thanks, very helpful. Was wondering what was out there. I will be filling out the ratings once I get more figures. |

All displaying fine for me now, cheers madaxeman! |

What's happened to the Timecast Models site? |

seems to work fine on my I.E.8 – for what that is worth |

Very useful list.
If all minis are described by name of company producing them, then 'Fire and Sword System' should be under 'Wargamer' lebel instead, as that how Polish company producing them is called. |

Thanks very much for the time and effort you put into doing this. Very useful! |
| madaxeman | 25 Apr 2011 3:05 p.m. PST |
Yep – Timecast seem to have lost navigation to all their pages other than the home page. I think they were at Salute though, so hopefully nothing too amiss |

Excellent resource mate. Well overdue |

Hi Mad
Great list but you forgot the Frie Korps figs which are now sold by QRF a fantastic range for ECW, lots of varity from an old range that holds its own even today.

Sorry found them in your list under LKM.

Hi – LKM is the wrong name for the company, we changed it to QRF Models two years back. Keep up guys! |
| madaxeman | 26 Apr 2011 11:50 a.m. PST |
Sorry – I was looking on the "Companies with TLA-based names who changed their branding in the past 18 months" board… ! |
| madaxeman | 28 May 2011 9:23 a.m. PST |
I've added a couple more manufacturers, and also now some pictures on a separate page comparing sizes This is the size comparison page link |
| Kadrinazi | 29 May 2011 7:02 a.m. PST |
Here (post no 5) You can find miniatures from Wargamer (By Fire and Sword) compare to minis from other manufacturers (unfortunately other models are from different historical periods):
