Hopefully someone might be able to help with this… I'm looking at some of the By Fire and Sword miniatures, and was wondering how they fit sizewise with other ranges.

I was wondering if anyone has any and could measure sole of boot to eye please? How do they fit with other ranges such as Peter Pig, Essex etc?

Thanks in anticipation

They are slightly smaller than average, I think, from what I have seen.

Thanks, what range(s) do you consider average?


There are so many interpretations of '15mm' it makes you wonder if the millimetre is a defined standard unit of measurement, or just some arbitrary distance between two points.

I have a By Fire & Sword Polish army. Not many infantry to measure, however, the haiduks measure 17mm from sole to eye. The peasants are slightly smaller, about 16mm sole to eye. The figures are slightly slimmer than Essex but of a similar height.

I have some of their Cossack peasant infantry. I agree with David's assessment.

Thanks for that. Much appreciated.
