If that is your first set ever....well done. They would look great on any gaming table. Thanks for sharing.

They look superb.  :D

Unfortunately for the Old west, brown, is the colour of just about everything. Oh, and a dusty grey.  ;)

Just one of the many Foundry cowboys. Looked like he was wearing the remains of a uniform, so I just stuck with that idea while painting him.

Great work JollyBob! You got a nice effect out of a limited palette. I went out west once and yeah its brown, sometimes reddish brown, but overall too damn brown.

It's true, a pint of mild or a bag of chips and JB is anybodies.

Looking good Rob lad, as ever. So paid to paint, now only if you could get paid to drink as well.
