Hi looking for a 28mm elephant that a player can use for is wondrous figurine. Any suggestions for unmanned elephant.

Cheers

You'd probably be better served getting a mod to move this to Painting and Modelling.

Off the top of my head, the only Elephant I can think of is the Mahmut (sp?) from GWs LOTR, but is almost definitely too big.

Otherwise, perhaps there's a historical range that features Elephants? Would need to be an Ancients line, but it might be worth digging about, but is outside my area of expertise I'm afraid.

Booyah.

I think war games factory wanted to do a plastic one but didn't/hasn't gotten around to it.

What cincydooley said.

Thanks for that. Looks pretty decent. ordered. and only £2 delivery charge could have been worse for an elephant

Couple more options as well for others who might be looking. Most historiical manufacturers will have at least one if they dealin Ancients too. Carthage v Rome is a stapple for them and you cant do those battles too well without Hannibal's elephants.

Nice find!

That is a nice find, reasonably priced too. Funny I was just reading a ruleset today with elephants and wondering which models could be used!

The other alternative might have been one of the plastic toy ones you sometimes see amongst those farmyard animal collections in toy shops?

Black Tree Design have one in their African animals range, and if you sign up for a free 'premium membership' it is 50% this weekend ($16 instead of $32). I have one, it is a pretty hefty chunk of metal (actually a few chunks as it is multiple parts) and like it quite a bit.


The membership gets you emails every week with members only specials. I got a ton of their Zulu War stuff at half price and really like it.

Reaper also has some elephant models as well, including some elephant hybrid warriors.

I found some nice elephants at my local Michael's craft store. They are produced by a German company; Sleich or something like that is their name.
