A Necktie Party...

[Yankeepedlar01]

The latest addition to my Old West town; the Gallows kit from Battle Flag.

The figures are a mixture of Foundry and Dixon, with a few I got eons ago at Historicon. The Hearse is an old GW kit, a gift a long time ago from Andy Dumelow.

The whole town seems to have turned out to see the bad guy swing...

More over on the Blog if you have a moment to spare.

Looks great 

I like the way you've got the fellow with the banjo at the front of the crowd, reminds me of that scene from Cat Ballou: "A hanging day, in Wolf City Wyoming - Wolf City Wyoming, 1892 ..... "

Excellent, I just ordered the gallows set too. A nice eclectic mix of bystanders too,

Nice, must get that gallows at some point.

But:

Will that crowd hang around afterwards or will they be roped into staying?

or:

Are they waiting for some good noose?

and :

Is the banjo player just stringing them along?

[Bugsda]

Love it 

[styx]

Nice!

Don't know but the hangman in NPC will be in for a bonanza.

BTW nice work pilgrim, you have soon erected that, you don't hang about do you?

Thanks, Phil! No I don't let the grass grow under my feet its true, on with the Undertaker's Parlour next!

Way cool!

I have to attempt a similar construction!

[Mississippi]

Great job.

Talk about a suspended sentence 

[Marine0846]

Excellent.
I like what you have done.

Hmmm. I was hoping the Battleflag gallows came with a noose. Probably wishful thinking on my part. I can certainly get some string, but I have no idea how to tie a noose knot. I imagine it will be very fiddly at such a small scale too. Anyone know any good noose tutorials?  I guess that could be a useful skill to have someday

It comes with twine to tie your own. There is a YouTube tutorial you can find. It only took me three attempts to get it right, not really that fiddly...
