Welcome back to the fray!  Those temperance marchers give me an idea or two to add to mine once they make it on to the table, especially the sashes, a very nice touch.  Kudos to your friend.

Threadsurrection - both resurrecting and rebelling.  Need my fix, you see, and don't want to go hunting.  And time you added new stuff Digits.  And show off the temperance women in a game!

Hey, I just saw those vultures far away from the American West!  Them birds get around.   And I want some - in 15 mm.  Probably have to go the route of Sculpey and make them myself.

Ha, just seen there’s activity here! 

I still have my soaring vultures to sort out at some point but regardless of what continent those are supposed to be on, I like them.

I will set up a game and take shots with the ladies as soon as I get a chance. 

As for new stuff, I have a number of new minis on my “to do paint-bench”.  New builds will take a little while as I’m having a splurge of mojo painting naps at the moment.  Don’t worry though......all in good time.  Thank you.

Oh, no!  I just realized Deedles is missing an essential element to add proper realism to his games.  Oh, the calumny upon his talented young head (young? heck if I know).  Where, sir, where, oh, where, are the numerous piles of horse, oxen, longhorn, and sheep manure?  And the manure wagons and sweepers to clean it up?  Come now, let's get on this horrendous omission.  :D

And, to be fair, yes, I do have a few such items planned (already purchased just not painted) for my own Old West town to be (or towns - yes, towns).   And anyone who calls me an "old coot", well, we'll meet in the street, stand back to back, pistols drawn, and y'all walk ten slow paces and turn and we'll fire simultaneous, we will.  I'll count nice and slow, too, really I will, pilgrim.   ::)

Back to back we faced each other, drew our swords and shot each other?

Sure I’ve seen a Chinese figure out there with a tall basket on their back. Simple addition of a spade and dung farmer is doable I suppose.


That wedding scene makes VC look like a very serene and carefree place to live........a shame it was about to change 😱
