Title: New Ride for an old West Town
Post by: styx on 06 April 2014, 02:40:21 PM
Finished a 4Ground Wagon last night, went simple and stained it a chestnut ink...

That chestnut ink works brilliantly. I've been pondering how to paint mine believing (probably rightly) that I'll ruin it by painting it. I'll give it the chestnut ink treatment I think, with a light drybrush.

Looks really good, but it looks to me like a 4Ground wagon rather than a Sarissa one?

That works well, sir.
An excellent result.

I am considering getting one or two of these for variety.
They will need a little tinkering, of course, but do look pretty good.

Looks great.

Dunno if I should get those as nobody in Dos Cruces has the money for such wheels :D

Maybe you could have one abandoned outside Dos Cruces with a broken axle. The owner not wanting to stay in the sleepy town speeding off on the cart horse leaving the wagon and all of their belongings. In the back could be various rifled through bits of baggage as the townsfolk try to find something of use or value. Lacking the skills to fix the wagon it lies overgrown and abandoned.

That's a nice idea! Will make a nice scenario: Loot the last wagon! :)
