Lord Kermit of Birkenhead

Wizard on Flying Carpet - take the Arab foot Standard bearer.
Cut standard down to look like a scroll, I used the standard for a cavalry standard.
Drill the base of figure, and add a peice of card to it, - "carpet sized"
Mount on hexagonal (or any other) flying base.....

Simple conversion (must be - did it).

I've got a little chap on a carpet somewhere, but it's only 6mm I think?  I'll find it and sort out a pic.

Quite an admission Leon. The figure is probably Irregular, one of their better ones.

It's in a batch of old master moulds I've ben digging through recently, it's amazing all the random odds and ends I've found!  The chap on the carpet looks too small to me, but I'll get a pic and let folk decide.

Good list, I like the sound of those.
