As is, the 'seat' looks more 15mm to me, but as I stated in the thread linked above, worked VERY well in 28mm with a bit of fiddling by my chum.

Too well for a couple of opponents the time I got to run it with it's electro-cannon mod...  lol

Alas, as I said in the other thread, he may have sold it. I may have it in a piccie, but I'm terrible in seeking such out.

Still, how can I refuse you my best effort...?

My bud the Beast said that you would like to see some pictures of my electro cannon made from the steam boy toy.  Here's two versions, one came painted the other didn't and I haven't painted it yet. Sorry for the blurry picture but you get the idea.

I'm going to do something similar, using them as artillery tractors for my US army.

Arrtillery tractor was my first thought. I may need ot order some of these too.

Man, what is it with all these awesome toys and me not having any real money?

Oh wait, maybe the two are connected...

Thanks, Sir Randall! Actually, the first image in your mail to me was clear, but this definitely gets the info across.

In the movie, the seat is where the driver stands at the front of the vehicle. I thought it was genius to see the awkward driving from the rear with the BFG up front as perfect Vicky tech dabbling with a taste of Hansom Cab.  lol

Found a blog with a nice screen cap of the beast:
