Forget 15mm, if you were to add a side railing ,and maybe raised archer platform fore and aft, that would make an awesome flying galley in 6mm  :D :D :D

Actually I was thinking primarily of that for the flyers. They would be great for 6mm, if there were suitable figures. A bit easy to get away with proxies/conversions in 6mm than 15mm though. I would use the flyers for 15mm too though. I have had a long held desire to make a some big ships for a Barsoomian show game, if suitable figures were available.

You've been watching Stroezie's work, right? Already done that.  ;)

Strangely, I think the flyers work well for the 28, and would do for large ships in 6, but that tail portion seems big for the inbetween 15mm. Can't explain it, of course.

I have seen Stroezie's work, but I am thinking of something quite different, more dreadnought than something resembling an ornithopter. Each to his own, but I can't see the problem with that the tail in any scale, although replacing the discs with clear plastic would be preferable. One day. 15mm Barsoom. Someone will take my money and run. Khurasn has made some kind of move in that general direction recently, but not full on Barsoom. I also fancy his Away Team Tahars for Pellucidar Mahars, if I can remove the guns!
