Haha, nice fig. I can see why he is called a B*****d, he runs his establishment with the end of his shotty. I imagine this oldest establishment has a few holes in the wall and stains that sawdust and time hasnt been able to erase. :D a big blast above the door announces to all who enter - tread lightly around the B@#$@#d. lol

Cheers

This thread just keeps getting better

Thanks, Carlos.
Flattered.
 :D

You got it!
He is the Creek's answer to Al Swerengen.
 ;)




And here is the Bastard's Inn...















The home of Tom the B*stard is one of the oldest buildings in town.
Formerly a trappers lodge, Tom has turned the former White Horse Lodge into the roughest place in town, but if you want something 'done', this is the place to come.











It is rumoured that Tom has disposed of those that oppose him by feeding them to his pigs.
This may well be true, but Tom must be a right B*stard, as he seems to have eaten the pigs themselves.



(So, if anyone in the UK has some 28mm pigs that they want to shift: Send me a PM!  :D).




Hope ya like it.

Well, I do, but Tom himself could not give a toss whether you like it or not.
 :D

Lovely work.
Some of the pigs from the LAF range are great and full of character.

Nice job there Paul and I really like the Swearengen angle!

I might have a solution to the pig shortage ... Give me a mo and I'll take a photo  ;)
My LAF Gallery is HERE
Minis (foot & mounted) finished in 2025 = 74
(2024 = 38; 2023 = 151; 2022 = 204; 2021 = 123; 2020 = ???)

I bought these from Essex Miniatures but they might actually be by Hovels.

The two pigs are the same model - somewhat surly looking and painted as the Old Essex rare breed - alongside a TAG mini for scale.

If you'd like these Paul, I will very happily send them to you (though don't feel obliged  ;))

Lets hope I get 'whole works' finished in time.
 :D

Cheers, Colin.
I did consider them, but need to get hold of them quickly and SI seems to have a very cunning plan.
 ;)




Nice job there Paul and I really like the Swearengen angle!

Cheers, Steve.
I am glad that you approve.
You did a great job with the build, I got the easy job of slapping a couple of washes on it.
Cheers!
 :D

I shall take you up on that offer as they would be perfect.

KAAW BLIMEY! That has turned out well. I'm loving the sign and the stone chimney. Nicely done there Steve and Paul.

What a kind gent, perhaps in honour of your patron "Sheet" should be changed to "Steve"? Up Steve's Creek ... lol .. on second thoughts perhaps not. ;)

Will Steve have some in game benifits at BLAM? A re-roll or two? Hahahaha

Cheers

Wonderful work  :-*

B*astard is full of character... and characters if B*astard really has eaten those poor pigs  :?

And his Place looks like a proper den for lowlifes... hmm... I meant respectable attendees of BLAM, of course  :D

LAF pigs look good but Architects of War have a pack of 5 pigs, one of whom is sitting back on his haunches, very satisfied piggy indeed.

Steve did all the hard work building the place.
I just did a little washing and drybrushing and a rebase, to make it fit in with my other stuff.

Not sure about that one, mate.... ::)

 lol lol
I dont think so. Matt.
I do not even know if Steve will get to play on the Creek table as I think he will be running one of his games at the same time.




Great as usual.

Thank you, sir!

I just checked those out.
That sitting one is great.
I think I shall have to have a go at sculpting one like that.

Can't argue with that.

 lol lol
Yep, Gutbukkit has made me aware of the similarities, although I have also been informed that Schitte Creek is a lot rougher place than my little Town.
 ;)






Silent Invader offered me these little porkers....








...which have since been purloined by Tom the B*stard, who seems very happy with his new 'waste disposal' system,





Cheers, Steve!

Schitte Creek is certainly very rough of late considering how I've neglected it for so long  :(
Fantastic additions to your fine town Mason, this thread is a joy and inspiration.
