Had no idea you were into Wild West, Braxandur! Thought you focused on fantasy. Nice models, and great buildings - now I had to track down and go through some of your old posts. One of the reasons why I love the LPL!

My general rule when having a hard time deciding is to give my vote to the monkey.  :)

Your entry looks great Braxandur though I must say in real life they look even better! I must confess however, that your civilians cannot stand up to the might of old citadel villagers combined with phreedhs mighty brush-control.

Phreedh: we've been playing Legends Of The Old West lately. While the west isn't really my personal cup of tea it is an enjoyable game in itself 8)

Well.. I already noticed that the pciture was a bit...well lacking detail... , it could have been better, but the last details were added a bit too late and at least I finished everyhting :)

Anyhow they deserve to be beaten by golden oldies  :-*

@Phreedh: There are of course no limits to what I'm into. Though I blame a lot of good (and really bad) movies for that :) The next rounds will show a few more different settings

Why aim for gold if you can get lead?

Don't rightly remember, Pil. Will check when I get back home.

Pil, the font is called Casablanca Antique. Should be readily available online. Let me know if you can't find it. =)

For your sanity, forget them :) They are just old Citadel miniatures, the company who finally knew the secret of alchemy : to turn lead in gold, they just had to sculpt it and wait 30 years !

It was a great range. They are Citadel (Games Workshop) C46 models from the mid 80s:

And very nice they are too - great job with a few familiar old faces there Phreedh!

The settlers are rather spiffy too!

Great stuff all around.  Who makes the Old West minis?
