It certainly helps I've had my share of monster killing through the years... and the scars to prove it!  :D

A new mini up, the stitch doc almost done(need to decide on hair colour) kept colours normal as he makes an excllent generic surgeon.

Next up the preacher and broodsire.

Also incoming possibly here or possibly wargames illustrated (if they are interested) my homebrew rules for three(techically four) new hired guns!

Soldier of the Empire, Big game Hunter and war correspondent/muckracker.

@Kommando_J: Fantastic to hear you've come up with some more Hired Guns already!  8)
Any pictures of the Doc? I'm still waiting on my own 'official' figures, so using the time to gather some inspiration...

Given the straight forward nature of the rules(no messing about with loads of individual stats) homebrewing some new characters was pretty easy!

Just realised the pic dint attach lol, here it is.

Looking great!

If you are based in Glasgow, maybe we could get a game at some point, if I manage to make myself a posse :D

First off the Empire Soldier!

Retainer - $4

Armed with rifle.

Special:

- Stand To! - Counts as the trigger happy skill but can also be used for reactions.

- 'Ornery - Same as rulebook.

Second up, the big game hunter!

To Hire - $20

Retainer - $6

Rank/Grit - Veteran

Armed with heavy pistol and elephant gun.

(Elephant Gun ($20- Uncommon): S-10'' M-20'' L-MISS! Jam-D6, Rifle Targets suffer -1 save modifier at up to 20'')

I thought of having silver bullets as a separate thing but thought it might be a bit overkill, maybe put his elephant gun to -2(i would consider such an experienced hunter to probably use silver as standard and have plenty to last a battle).

Some new pics!

First up a sinister gentleman lately of Egypt...possibly either a huckster hired gun or a member of some new future gang.

Second, Floyd, since he has no weapons and you cant take either zombies or unarmed guys in a congregation force, i've decided to use him as a pugilist!

And yet to come, two broodkin, a carpathian guard and a swamp thi-...errr a Fen bea-a swamp monster!

Masters done, finally got some painting done!

First up a Carpathian guard, not hugely fussed on the uniform aspect.

Second, the Winters brothers, not fully happy, might redo faces at very least.
