Another thought - the mass of your models could be variable depending on
who cast them and from what - I believe pewter (which I'm pretty sure is
what Jon casts his models in now) is a significantly lower density than
any white metal with a lead content. So anything you have in lead would
show up as much heavier then an identical pewter casting.
A better measure might be to try and work out the volume of each model
(stick 'em in a beaker of water and measure the displacement ?). You'd
have to make sure that any hollow models were sealed of course.
