tough I initially wanted to include black scorpion, reaper, shadowforge and dragonblood miniatures Im still awaiting those, and was using the camera for sales anyway.
so here we go :

first female miniatures from Wyrd, Impact, Freebooter, Resina, Moonlight, Warcrow and privateer press :

the biggest is resina planet, and the smallest being the one from privateer press, one thing must be said tough and thats that this is the biggest female pirate of resina's range, the rest are smaller but still on the tall side of scale creep.
(like with all their skeletons.) the moonlight one is quite big when you consider it lacks muscles and flesh, but (as I find mostly the case with skeletons.) she blends in with other ranges like she is, smaller would have looked off.

male miniatures from Wyrd, Masquerade, Tins bits, Freebooter, Resina and moonlight.

Again Resina is the biggest in size, among these miniatures tins bits is the smallest of them all even tough padre gecko from masquerade miniatures is the same size, they both still are the smallest -scale- miniatures I currently own. the freebooter chap isnt a good reference, as he is rather small compared to other freebooter males I have, but it looks more a matter of human variety then an unstable scale.

Some more male miniatures

Oriental themed ones :

Misaki is easily the smallest of all my *oriental* miniatures, but this seems more a matter of how she is scaled then to wich size she is scaled (proportions etc.)

and then some *little* ones, often when you see a miniature thats supposed to be small (goblins, children, halflings.) you cant easily figure how small they really are, well :

rackham goblins and dwarfs are, well, huge. there is really nothing small about them and even among other rackham miniatures they are often heavier than their human equivalents. I think its bit unclear in this picture, because the freebooter goblin is actually half a rackham one in mass. (ilyads goblins on the other hand stick with the rackham code.)
even smaller are baby kade and the Impact miniatures deadlings.
the ghoulling pictured is actually smaller than baby kade, yet fits in (in technical quality terms.) with all the others. impressive! :)

lastly some wyrd miniatures compared against one another.
http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l112/Illustrange/0_wyrd.jpg
most wyrd miniatures are comparable in size and proportions to the second from the right, wich makes them fall out off scale with most other miniatures I have. (being, in fact, smaller than those miniatures :))
it doesnt matter much as most of them dont fill the same purpose as my other miniatures but serve their original purpose as models for malifaux.
but I tought it was funny to notice since previously it was said wyrd miniatures were quite big (but then, I dont have a lot of miniatures coming from either the top 10 companies or the more classical ones.)

hope this helps some people :)
oh and one more picture, as I could never find it anywhere :
Ilyad's sylvarin sylphide.
http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l112/Illustrange/sylphide.jpg
she is 2 or 3 heads taller than seamus (without hat.)

and, the paintjobs are far from finished, so no comments there ! :p (in fact, the white on the hair of mcmourning is not highlighting... its the result of an accident >_< tough after it happened I tought it would make an interesting addams familesque result when done right.)

for privateer press they have two sizes, they have the 28mm that they use for the rank and file folks, and then 32mm that they user for their Warcasters and important character figures.

Yeah, I've noticed that from PP between rank and file to characters. Plus Aiyanna from PP is one of there better sculpts (even though its not very dynamic) and one of their smaller ones too.

Nice group and scale, thanks for taking the time to show them off.

Most PP human-type figures are in the 30-32mm tall range. Some are 33 or 34, but it is not a specific character model trait. I've had briefings for troops as well as characters to fall in any of those sizes. These sizes should match in quite well with Wyrd figures.

Many of the PP non-humans are set at 35-36 like the Trollkin & Skorne.
