I'm working on a Conan "Tower Of The Elephant" scenario and want to build a Yag Kosha fig in 28mm. I can round up a human body easy enough, but what can I use for the elephant head? I'm thinking maybe a 15mm elephant head would scale well with a 28mm human body. Maybe a 10mm? What do you think? If a 10/15mm head would work, what manufacturers should I look at? Thanks!

Try a historical range… 15mm Carthaginian, or (Classic) Indian, or possibly Greek Successor. Not sure where you would find a single elephant…. perhaps Essex. Old Glory 15mm would be a pack of elephants and crew. Not totally sure how easy it will be to remove the head though. Chalfant |

Hmmm, Essex 15mm Sassanid elephant.. link Oh, the Old Glory 15mm Indian ones have separate heads… link OG Successor… link OG Carthaginian… link Chalfant |

Actually, you might find some thing already made up, like this Reaper miniature… link Love the Conan stories, good luck with your project :) Chalfant |

Try your local Dollar Store. Pick up a bag of zoo animals and chop off the head of a plastic Elephant. |

Perhaps use a 15mm elephant head on a 28mm body? |

Kropotkin303, that's what I thinking. Since I have no 10mm/15mm elephant models, I was thinking maybe a 10/15mm head would scale well mounted on a 28mm body. But I have nothing for reference to measure them up together. Ideally, I'd prefer something realistic instead of "cartoony" as many of the small toys look (smiling expressions, lack of detail, etc.). |

Thanks, piglet. Do you know which one it is? I went through all the ranges on the right side of the website, but couldn't seem to find anything with an elephant head. I must be missing it. |
