That reminds me of the one about the Bear & the Rabbit.

Excellent stuff, especially the Mariachi band ;) :)

Indeed there is!  A little later than our period though!

Bob, JC WOULD get involved in your planned 'Back of Beyond' project
IF you pointed out that he could use Empress 'JAZZ age' figures.

Malamute / Mason, many thanks chaps.

Mariachi band helps the Lucky prospector to celebrate....but he only has eyes on the gold....poor Rosita !





More civilians arrive to bolster the town population.

More civilians from me.
I've heard that you just have to have civilians.

Problem with civilians....is they get in the way of the lead!

Top couple look like they could be dancing along with the mariachi band!



Anyways.....

I’m soon going to start painting my ultimate gang.....

All based on film characters from my favourite movies.  I may end up with a few extra so they can be swapped about but going to comprise of the following (all made by Knuckleduster except Tuco - Wargames Foundry).  They have silly non copyright names on their web site, but we all know who they really are.... ;)

Blondie - Clint Eastwood - Good, the Bad and the Ugly
Bernardo - Charles Bronson - Magnificent Seven
Harry Luck - Brad Dexter - Magnificent Seven
Frank - Henry Fonda - Once upon a time in the West
Angel Eyes - Lee Van Cleef - Good, the Bad and the Ugly
 
Reserves

Britt - James Coburn - Magnificent Seven
Ramón Rojo - Gian Maria Volontè - Fistful of Dollars
Tuco Benedicto Pacífico Juan María Ramírez - Eli Wallach - Good, the Bad and the Ugly



I know they are not all “good” guys in the movies they are in, but to me, some of the best characters in my favourite western films.

No hadn’t noticed the arm chair. That’s riding in comfort. 😁

Indeed!

So the Sarissa armoured wagon arrived.  Disappointing, the shell of the whole coach is third card and the “Gatling gun” is a square bit of timber!

Going to have to rectify the gun at least......
