I can go looking for a 15mm proxy, but I thought I would ask first.

Coincidentally I think I might have been stood next to this in the Musee de Armee in Paris on Saturday!  I'll have to check my pics and see if it's the same piece.

Just in case you are still looking, 15mm Hallmark 18th century artillery pieces are smallish 15s and work remarkably well as 10mm for the next size up (i.e. 3 pdr as 6/8 pdr, 6 pdr as 12pdr and 12/18 pdr as 24 pdr siege guns).

I have a rather large 10/12mm large gun that would work well for this purpose in my AIM range. Since I own the rights to the range, I would be happy to discuss allowing you to add it to your range with my permission if interested. I have some here (in Germany with me) suitable (unpainted/unassembled in pewter) for use as production masters.....(excellent detail and knobbed wheels that match, as well..) Let me know if Pendraken would be interested.

The heavy guns by Minifigs ECW range might do the trick as they were if anything a bit oversized being 12mm. I think Caliver sell them now

Bernie,

I think it is one of those that Tom is talking about, as they are the original AIM range.

Potentially?  We're not keen on royalty type agreements though, so that could be a stumbling block.

Alternatively, we've got some 15mm moulds somewhere with an 18th C. 9lb'er in them, that might do the trick!   :D

Well I'd be interested in a couple of siege guns if you put the proxy 15mm into production. I seem to have far more artillerymen than guns so would have no problem crewing them.
