25/28mm figures?
« on: May 06, 2019, 05:48:29 AM »
I'm after a two bit Snake Oil salesman and an old timer in a rocking chair. Does anyone make either to save me having to make a conversion?

???

Can't help you with the Old Timer but check out Knuckleduster miniatures for 'Carpetbagger' - That's what I use for 'Dr Goode' Purveyor of Dr Goode's Miraculous Tonic for Revitalisation and Potency

Ha! Ha! Forgot about that slick looking 'ombre.
I've just sold his big brother who used to ply his trade in Dead Man's Gulch with big boy's toys!

Dixon do some seated figures, which you could put in a suitable rocking chair.
They do a bunch of nice vignettes (piano player and singer, poker players, etc)
Dixon figures have very strange proportions, huge heads and tiny legs, but that second problem is not noticeable in the seated folks.

Knuckleduster do a fair few sitting figures - cowboys celebrating or playing cards mostly, rather than old boys dozing, but there might be something there.
