Cowgirls & Female Gunslingers: a pictorial survey
« on: 17 March 2014, 09:28:01 PM »
After completing the Annie Oakley's Wild West Show IHMN Company, I thought a survey of female Old West armed figures would be helpful. This is what I've come up with so far, and would appreciate any additions to the list I might have missed. Included are the only two Indian shamanesses/medicine women I have found (from Reaper and Bombshell).


The Female Huckster could have a pistol instead of cards in her right hand (in addition to her well-displayed derringer); the Gunslinger could obviously be used without her wings. Each Deadland Weapons and Accessories sprue set comes with a revolver in right hand, a revolver in left hand, a rifle (carbine) in right hand, and a shotgun in left hand. The pistol-with-bayonet (first from left) is in a right hand, and the multi-barreled pistol (2nd from left) is in a left hand. The Arc pistol (?) (3rd from left) is in a right hand.  







And just for fun:

I was talking aloud to myself. A habit of the old: they choose the wisest person present to speak to; the long explanations needed by the young are wearying.

If you're looking for a realistic portrayal of the Cowgirls in a Victorian Wild West Show, you won't find the proper miniatures here. See below:

There are these from Eureka Miniatures in the fantasy and science fiction/ cultists, fantasy and miscellaneous section.

Haven't read yr company list so don't know if this would fit in or not, but (despite the high pricetag) I've always wanted to grab this young lady from Studio McVey to lead a gang of Cowgirls for my IHMN games.

My Company features Annie Oakley (yeah, the real Annie, Little Miss Sure Shot) leading an all-girl Wild West Show as a cover for their operations for the US Secret Service. Find it here:

The McVey figure is awesome  :-*, and there is no reason it couldn't be worked into any number of Companies given a suitable back-story and, of course, stats for the dino.

A worthy addition to our compendium of cowgirls.
