1) Has anyone here tried using them as mounts for SF 15mm figures?

2) If so, what 15mm riders do you suggest?

They remind me, a little, of the Stargate "Mastadge" beast:

I have one sitting here and I also have a 15mm celtic chariot driver. It looks like it would work pretty well. I'm not sure what sci-fi figs you would use but there are probably a variety of fantasy ones that would look great.

Good idea Dan, Thanks!

Hmmm… very cool. You know, come to think of it, there are a lot of 28mm beasties that would make good 15mm mounts. Maybe some of the Star Wars Minis creatures, or things like Gaunts. This idea may merit further exploration.

Jav,

Are these the ones you mean?

I think so… I guess the ones I was envisioning are the Hormagaunts. The ones with the big ripping talons in front.

You know, another good potential source would be D&D Minis. There's a lot of little cool creatures that would fit in well with 15mm as beasts of burden.

I have always used old Ral Partha 25's for my 15mm flying mounts-I've always thought a flyer should be quite a bit larger than its rider,how else would it have the capacity to take off and fly?

Some of these mounts would make the Kra'vak's own mounts pale in comparison. Interesting idea. Kra'vak on some gaunts.

I will not 8use them with 15's but am probably going to get some as 30k deamons after seeing this post. Thanks Dan.

PS. Dont forget to post some painted up!
