Hi all,
I'm looking for Polynesian-style canoes in 15mm.
So far I've only found one specific offering, unfortunately without image:
Outrigger canoe with two crew, BXA-H13, by Bloodaxe Miniatures (http://www.bloodaxeminiatures.com)
Their website points at East Riding Miniatures as their European reseller, but I couldn't find the canoe in the ERM webpage.
I've also found Eastern American style canoes offered by more producers, which could perhaps work with some modifications:
Beached canoes, 15LOM159, by Blue Moon Manufacturing (https://www.bluemoonmanufacturing.com/view_product.php?product=15LOM159)
Unfortunately also without image, but the canoes can be seen in other items in the line.
I'm not quite satisfied, so I've done a quick search of railroad models (H0 would work) and plastic models (1/72 might be a bit large but could serve well), but didn't find anything satisfactory; not surprising since I'm out of my depth on these. The closest I've found is a 1/72 resin model by Nikolai which looks superb but really is again in an Eastern American style, and comes with two oversized (for 15mm) American Indians and a deer that I have no use for.

Does anyone know any even remotely suitable model that could work for me?
Thanks in advance!
