Title: A few more characters...(help needed!)
Post by: Elbows on December 17, 2015, 07:03:25 PM
Hey folks,

Progress has been churning on for the re-launch of SnS and I've come up a couple of characters short.  While I have the characters mostly done, I'm missing quality painted figures for the following:

-Prize Fighter
-Trail Boss (mounted cowboy)
-Cowboy (mounted)
-Pony Express Rider (mounted)
-Prospector

If anyone has some quality pictures of well painted miniatures they own, please help me out!  I'll be seeing if I can get some pics of my own miniatures, but I'm not entirely sure the paintjobs are up to snuff.  I may have the Prospector sorted, but unsure about the other fellas.

So far I've got painted miniatures from Bugsda, Jeff965, and one other fella from Mason's thread.  I'll be listing names/credits in the book.  The cards look smashing so far.

(resists urge to post test prints!)

Take the Prospector from my thread, 'Damn Ass!' he is called. (See below...)

I could do a Cowboy/Trail Boss if standing next to a horse will do rather than actually mounted.
I also have two prize fighters, just have to see about getting a piccie or two if I get time.

Hey guys, I'm closing in on the re-release for SnS and I'm still a few figures short.  Thanks to Bugsda and TW Miniatures I have almost all of my characters covered, with a few exceptions.

Looking for the following:

1) Mounted Lawman
2) Soldier (U.S. Cavalry with a Carbine)
3) A Pony Express Rider (so, any cowboy on a horse is fine)
4) A Trail Boss on horse (so a grizzled old cowboy, grey'ed hair is a plus)

If anyone has nicely painted miniatures in high quality photos, please let me know.  Art credits will be applied (and if you're a painting service, a link will be provided in the rules PDF).

Here's a current sample of the character cards:

Would love to see some more LAF guys presented in the cards!

Hope the rules go well for you.

2) Soldier (U.S. Cavalry with a Carbine)

Not quite, but if your turning up empty handed feel free to use this guy.

Yeah if you could take a few shots of some of those guys with the carbine, that'd be great.  I was actually using one of those from your thread, but it was a poorer picture and it didn't look the part when done. One of those would work nicely.

Which one?
And do you want anything in particular in the background or are you going to crop that out anyway?

If you could snap a few of the guys with carbines - no background (I'll edit it out anyway, no big deal).
