Wagons for Calamity - Sarissa Precision Lineup
« on: 11 February 2014, 04:12:30 PM »
Nothing quite says the old west like wagons; freight wagons. prairie schooners and stage coaches really set the scene. But there are a few others that can be found out in the old west as well; the occasional Hearse with direct service to boot hill and Gypsy and drover wagons as well. Sarissa Precision has a nice selection of wagons to serve the needs of your western town. I just finished off a series of postings on building the Sarissa wagons. Here are a few shots of the lineup and there are detailed construction photos on my blog.

I will have to take a look later.
I am curious, just unsure if they are not to 'flat' for my tastes.
I am being open-minded, though, as the hearse and gipsy-wagon do look interesting.

You are not. I think the only wagon that is actually in the store right now is the plank wagon. The Gypsy wagons, the hearse and the stage coach haven't quite made it on to their website yet. If you contact Sarissa about it they are happy to take orders for them and just send you a Paypal invoice.

The stage doesnt look too flat... but the Gypsy Wagon looks fantastic.

Thankfully the Mrs has suggested a limited hobby budget, so I cannot get to sidetracked by extra purchases at the moment.

They are actaully quite nice models for laser-cuts.

One great advantage with those is, you can spray-paint the base colours before assembly.

I think I'll go with the Sharpenking coaches, though, they are about half the price, and lack the 'flatness' of laser-cuts.
Ask at the LAF, and answer shall thy be given!
