Could anyone point me in the direction of a manufacturer that makes good, realistic looking and well proportioned 10mm Napoleonic artillery pieces?

Depends on which Era / Nationality you are looking for

Bendsinister's Redline miniatures are great for post 1812 French and British. Artillerists well proportioned and good poses. bendsinister.co.uk

GHQ make some very finely detailed ones, but the artillerist poses are very stiff and formal. British, French, Brunswick, Russian, Austrian, Prussian later war stuff. ghqmodels.com

Old Glory make a wider range. I find the wheels too close together for the guns. Have some good limbers, ammunition wagons and supply carts. Sorry no pics.

I haven't used Pendraken but like the photos above. There are more 1805 – 1812 from the looks of the catalog.

I have a few other pieces from Magister Militum, no guns. I find their men a little too chunky and in strange proportions (large heads).

Hope this helps a little.

Thanks – thats all helpful. I may have just got a dodgy pack from Pendraken as the guns in the photo look OK, I have some French with tiny short gun carriages and blobby barrels – an old pack maybe?

What I really don't want is guns that have the barrels cast on and that have been stuck up at full elevation – they just look silly.

I went with Redline (Bend Sinister) in the end – very nice castings, barrels not cast on, sold separately from the crew and delivered really quickly too.

Now if they can just release the rest of the Austrian pieces I'll be a happy (happier) man.
