Any help ID'ing the models would be appreciated.

The figures are the RAFM line of old west figures.  They were out of Canada.  I'm not sure if they are still in business.

Here's an update on some of the figs. I've done most of the Indian mounted figures. Here's a few quick pics:

Here's a link to the finished product. It took a lot longer that I anticipated but a lot of other things got to the table first.

I like that you didn't go overboard on color for the indigenous folk - too often we see much too bright colors (which isn't wrong, just a bit garish for my tastes).  Maybe a bit too much vermilion but records indicate it was popular so not too far off.

Liking how you've done your figs.  Well done.

I have a soft spot for Cavalry-Indian wars - I have a 3rd-great uncle who fought in Col. MacKenzie's 4th Cavalry in Texas and New Mexico in the early 1870s.
