I like your terrain (and the mini's, of course).

"Badlands" terrain can lend an alien feature to the Western game tabletop.

I was in Arizona about 10 years ago and stood under some "Sahuaro",  giant cactus that were about 500 years old.  They were about 40-50 feet tall.

Dang, but those rattlers in that fourth photo are bigger than I figured.

Jimmy takes a bullet from Red's rifle and drops to the dry Arizona dirt. The other rustlers, caught in the open, scramble quickly for the cover of some nearby rocks...

IIRC, she's from an Australian company whose name I  ??? should be remembering but for the tequila... I guess I should not have taken those sips left my daughter's unfinished margarita.  :o

Edit again: http://www.shadowforge.com.au/  Well I remembered the forge part...

Farmer's daughter from Shadowforge. I have been very tempted in the past to buy her and the gun toting saloon girl to make up a female posse for LOTOW.

Here are a few picks of some of our other old west terrain --


(above - three outlaws square off against Hood, Red, and Jimmy)


(above - the Jellybean Kid comes up behind Hood, ready to gun the rancher down)


(above - Diaz pulls his pistol on Red, as Castor and Coot prepare to gun down the other two ranchers)


(above - Hood and Jimmy go for their sixguns)


(above - all hell breaks out and the street runs red)

Their females are great, almost as good as Hasslefree's. They also do a very nice set of the "Earp Sisters and Dr Holly Daye" which are far better than the painted version on their site suggests. I had a similar idea about an all-female posse.

The Not-Lara Croft is also a cracking figure, along with the lovely Valkyries. I have a big bag full of their figures, which I put away somewhere safe  :(

One day I'll get them all painted.

Good job! You're one of the few folks I've seen get the colors right. I've seen a lot of Old West terrain that's way too green.

Thanks, von J! I guess it really depends on where your campaign is located. But I've spent too many years in the red dirt, so it is what I know and what I chose to go with.    :)

Guilty as charged.  ::)

Love those printed-off buildings.  What rules are you using?
