I have been basing the size of my model bases around what the size is for the creature (or an equivalent one) in Dnd 3.5. Howeer, I have been stumped by Onemonk's giant bats form the witch set. I think they use a 20mm base (which would be size small in dnd) but the only things listed in dnd anywhere that I have seen is the regualr bat at dimunitive size (2 sizes smaller than small) or large for the dire bat (which is a 50 mm base.)
Does anyone know anywhere of a bat type creature that is either size small or medium in DND/OGL/D20 stuff?

Offhand, no; I've just looked at the Hypertext SRD and you're right, there pretty much just seems to be the two listings. But then the entry for bat does say that it specificlly refers to "small, insectivorous bats". Way I see it, there's nothing wrong with bumping up a few of the stats (like giving it a couple more hit points and a bite attack) and knocking the Size up to Small to make the creature you're after.

I should also suggest that being paper, you can simply grab the figure from the set and scale it up. With paper you are never restricted to the size you get, make it fit what you need. JIM

Good thought - take the normal bat and make it dire! ;D

JIM If the need arises for a giant bat, that is my plan. However these bats were already printed and glued together, just waiting for a base. I'm probably just going to use a 20mm base and be done with it, but I just wanted to know if anyone knew of any "official" giant bat stats in d20/dnd before basing, just in case I missed something. EDIT: I totally didn't even consider checking 4e stuff, and right there in the base monster manual they have stats for a medium size bat, so I will use a 25mm base and reference that.
