I'm not sure my town qualifies as a town with only two buildings, but there is more in the pipeline. I think financial and space constraints will stop me getting a full town, and I'll have to go for small outpost/extended ranch - bit like some of the settlements in Red Dead Redemption maybe? It's certainly not up to the standards of the rest of this thread, but it's a start. I've got another Perry's Cabin/Shop on the painting table, plus a TTCombat moonshine distillery and a few more bits of scatter terrain to follow. I'll likely add a Sarissa Blacksmith and Adobe Hacienda too. I also need to get a gaming mat....

Monkey not a bad start at all! Give it a name and I'll throw it on the list. Started out just like mine.

Indeed it is not.
We all started like that but you have loads of scatter scenery already, which I reckon really brings a table to life.

Well, thanks for the nice comments. The missus is working away for a couple of weeks so I guess now is the time to get on and get more stuff done.

I was thinking of going with Coyote Rock for the name.

Added, and I'll change it should it come under new management and be re-branded!

You've got a great setup there - how was the game?

Didn't happen...a lot of people backed out.

Like the street lamps Elbows - watched tombstone again and it has a night fight and shows lamps. Anyway these might interest some - working street lights see: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/252197692981?ssPageName=STRK:MESINDXX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1436.l2649

£3 for 12 depending on postage option seems reasonable - might be tricky to wire up in such a way to hide power supply etc. They are 7cm tall so should be fine for 28mm?

Yeah, that's basically what I ordered (different style) but I clipped all the cables. I've no interest in running real street lamps. But same idea, cheap lamps from China, cut the cords and I cut some bits off mine to make them a bit more plain.

Wonder if you could wire those lamps up to round 6V dog collar batteries? It's been a long time since my Electronics merit badge, so I have a feeling it can't be that simple. But the batteries would work great both as batteries and bases for the lamps...
