10mm American Civil War Miniatures Comparison 2.0

My first order of 10mm American Civil War figures from Blaze Away Miniatures arrived Friday afternoon. I must say the quality of these figures is excellent, and they match up very well to Pendraken. With the arrival of these figures, I decided that it was a very good time to update my 10mm ACW comparison photo. Along With Blaze Away Miniatures, I also added figures from Starfort and the Baggage Train to the comparison photo. I hope this new photo proves to be useful.

The following Manufactures are included in this comparison:
  • Kallistra
     
  • Blaze Away Miniatures
     
  • Minifigs (US) AIM (UK)
     
  • Pendraken
     
  • GHQ
     
  • Old Glory
     
  • Perrin (US) Magister Militum (UK)
     
  • Starfort
     
  • The Baggage Train

10mm American Civil War Miniatures Comparison 2.0

Note 1: To my Knowledge the only Manufacture missing from this comparison is Pithead.

Note 2: All Old Glory infantry comes in strips of five. For this comparison I cut one figure from the strip.

Key Words: ACW 10mm, American Civil War 10mm, Wargaming Miniatures, Kallistra, Minifigs, Pendraken, GHQ, Old Glory, Perrin, Magister Militum, Starfort, The Baggage Train, Blaze Away Miniatures

  4. I might suggest for those figures advancing [vice the marching] that you turn them slightly [a 1/4 turn to the viewers right] so that they are more square to the viewer and show more of the detail of the figure.

    Its hard to make out much on the Perrin & MiniFig example.
