Pike?

Anyone know how well these scale with Oldhammer citadel?



I am guessing a bit on the small side?
Yeah, these are going to be 'true 25mm' sculpts, so close to preslotta Citadel size. Basically tiny compared to anything GW from the late 80s onwards.
 
I have a few of these so I just got up to take some quick photos for comparison. I'm a little biased because I've always believed scale to be more of a suggestion rather than a law, but I think they fit just fine. The marauder figures and for example 4th ed. Perry Empire sculpts will definitely dwarf them a bit, but I think they fit in pretty well with C46 men at arms and pre-slotta figures, though in all cases the Ral Partha sculpts have more realistic proportions. Some of the figures are skinnier than others - that crossbowman is pretty titchy.

Wouldn't put it past the Empire to enlist younger soldiers, that's how I'd head cannon scale differences. That and they have younguns in mordheim warbands.

Unless the mini has facial hair, but he could just be a short chap, I'm only 5 ft 8 but Im a (better looking) doppelganger of Kerry King from slayer. I wouldn't let a lil height difference put you off painting up some amazing minis unless you really feel like using pure GW sculpts.
