Ahhh, just remembered: it was this fantastic thing of a vulture I was looking for:  :love:



But if there are other minis, just keep on posting ...

Thanks to everybody so far!

This is a beautiful set, but i think this is in 30 mm scale !

Its the same as the vulture on Nicodem here:



Wyrd stuff is 30mm, but there isnt really a lot of difference in size between them and most figures out there I find, its just that they are maybe a bit more honest about it :)

Nicodems base is 30mm diameter, so that should give you an idea of how big that vulture is.  Quite a bit larger than the Megaminis guys I suspect.

If you are using them for the West, I would recommend the Turkey vulture.  Black with a naked red head and white bill.  The underside of the primary flight feathers should be a light or maybe medium gray.

There's also this one, but it's probably even bigger than the old one:

Vultures are pretty darn big,  :o so bigger isn't a bad thing.

Had a turkey vulture perch for a while in a tree out back a few years ago.
For reference, the on on the Nicodem mini up there must be a baby.

I picked up a few of the ogre kingdom tusker vultures from bitz sites.  They are rather nice models.
