The original OGRE minis from Martian Metals, and the follow-ups done by Ral Partha were 6mm. There were a handful of "Macrotures" in 25mm. As far as I know, Joels Mk III is the only 15mm OGRE mini.

I hate to rain on the OGRE parade, but do SJ Games know this 15mm beast exists? They do have copyright lawyers, y'know, and although they have a rep as a pretty cool company even cool companies get antsy about their 'image' being used for sales w/o authorization. Other than that, very cool model from the pics Jerry posted! Doing BIG models is a lot of fun; biggest I've done is a pair of roughly-12" long shuttlecraft, for either 15mm or 25mm, depending on who's standing next to them... must take pics for the site... <mutters about the con being on the wrong side of the continent>
