Western Town
« on: May 02, 2019, 04:52:54 AM »
This is the first of a series of mini dioramas that will tell a short story. Most of these figures are repaints of P&P figures that I wanted to display.The crates, sacks and barrels are from Barzso. The town is the single story Western Street-front from Marx. Pieces from the western town furniture sets are also sprinkled in. Here is part one.PART 1 It's a beautiful morning in Patterson, Iowa. The town folk are out and the streets are busy. Here's a bird's eye view of the town.Mayor Bill Murphy exchanges pleasantries with Kelly McCabe and her daughter Belle. The blacksmith,Sam Greco, pounds out a new horseshoe on his anvil. Another view of Mayor Murphy and the McCabe ladies. The Wells Fargo guard, Mark Harris, and his dog "Ulysses" man their post. Mark rocks, while Ulysses begs for a bone.A recently arrived stranger asks Rusty and Kathy Kern where he might find a Boarding House. Don Perkins, the Wells Fargo, manager, heads out after going over the payroll with the clerk. Tim Steinhoff finishes sweeping the walk out  in front of his store, as the schoolmarm, Deanna Versteeg, approaches the entrance..Little Matt Murphy plays with his dog "Bunker". Donna Striano and her daughter, are leaving the General Store, after placing their order from the new Sears catalog. Sheriff Nick Versteeg enjoys a smoke on this beautiful day and waits for Deanna to finish shopping.The view from street level.Another street level pictureAnd finally, an overhead panorama.

love the nostalgic feel i get from this between the miniatures which have great character in their sculpts
and the storefronts that remind me of cardboard buildings you could buy back in the 1970s
