No need....as it’s one of my favourites, it’s one of my earlier mini conversions.








The linguine guys are mostly from what I can see, from El Indio’s gang...”Few Dollars More”.

Of note, and one of my favourite bad guys, is Juan Wild, the hunchback from the scene when Douglas Mortimer lights a match on him in the saloon in El Paso. 

Also with him and one of the figures,  Niño.   Cool beans!

Oh boy!

Now they’ve done it!  I had to order this too, and look, Clint on his mule! FTW!




And it won’t stop....they are releasing plains Indians too!

In case you didn’t know, you can buy the Gunfighters Ball (Knuckleduster) minis from Caliver Books in the U.K.

Well....a bit disappointed tbh.

The riders are great, but few actually fit the saddles without judicious cutting. 

The horses aren’t great, I’m shocked as I’ve always liked everything else they do.  Legs on the horses are not in great positions, and many horses barely look like they will take any handling.  Indeed one in my pack is broken from the stand!

Clint come with a mule...but I want a horse for him.  I may look what other horses are out there for him....

I have been distracted for my smaller projects, this one included, but the group of gamers I have fallen in with have an ongoing loose campaign with plans to do more Western gaming.

One talented individual has updated the campaign map to include Vulture Creek!  So, with luck, post shutdown there will be more gunfire in the streets.....

Nice position, down on the Rio Grande.  I’m looking forward to prospecting in Jingler Hills.....hmmm......that’s given me a modelling idea.....

Some visible, some. It.  Photobucket looking at the issue apparently.

They are all visible to me, but that may be because the images are already cached.

It's a damn fine looking map.
All the best!

Seems Digits' semi-perrenial PhotoCluckIt shenanigans have sorted themselves out.  Again. 

soft voice repeating over and over and over in Digits ear, "Google blog, google blog, google bog."   :D

Why, Digits, didn't you know Goolgle's bog department is right around the corner from its blog department?   :D

Check out the game played on Saturday here in Dardenell County.

For me, not quite enough wagons on the table.....streets looked deserted........

So, thought I’d make up these two kits.

Wagon cover from Adrians Walls, horses on left from Knuckleduster, and right from Colonel Bill’s.



Sand and paint.....

Federales?
I'm sure Old Glory did them and I might have some lying around we can do a deal on. I'll dig around the metal box and see if i can see them and post a picture - might take a couple of days  :)
