More Zorro sculpts - Mexican Vaqueros! MORE PHOTOS ADDED!
« on: March 29, 2009, 04:37:37 PM »
Or, come on foot...

(Crossposted from the Old West board, as confusion reigns as to where this subject belongs... :))

More new sculpts from the very talented Matthew Bickley. (His father says he gets his talent from his mother, but I think he is fooling us ;)).

This time we have a band of Mexican/Tejano Vaqueros suitable for roughly 1820 - 1860 in either Texas, California or Mexico to fight Texans, Mexican federalistas, Commanches, Apaches or assist or hinder Zorro.

Led by Juan Seguin:





Seguin Snr, former Alcalde of san Antonio De Bejar:





Fat Pedro:





There are three more Vaqueros, mounted and dismounted photos in my gallery.

These will go off to the casters next week, then the horses need finishing and they are ready for sale.

Up next,the Dastardly governor, his honourable colonel, the Governors beautiful daughter and some American interlopers...

  Not bad at all, Mal. Very nicely done.

One miniature is too many, and a thousand are not enough...

I did get to see them first hand & very nice they are.  They are even better than they appear in the photos.

They will be available very soon. It takes time to get these projects off the groud. Now they have to go off to the casters for the master moulds to be made. Then the horses need to be finished. Not long to go I promise.
And just to piss you off some more here are the final three Vaqueros ;)

These are just fantastic figures.   :)

...These will go off to the casters next week...

They are going to be metal figures aren't they?  Not that nasty fiddly plastic stuff  ;)
