Howdy, pardners. I've been working through the lead pile and came across some Artizan varmints which has kick started my love of all things western:

There's a couple of more shots on my blog - http://critfailure.blogspot.co.uk/2015/05/true-grit.html - but I'll add to this thread as I finish off more.

A grand start

A grand start

It certainly is!
You have really brought the character out in those fellas.
 

[Harry Faversham]

That you Rooster!? 

[Vindice]

Thanks chaps. Working on a few more - the biggest shock is how rarely Wild Bill in Deadwood wears dark colours. Lots of greens and browns. I am massively impressed with the Artizan sculpts. I'm going to have to treat myself to some more.

[Denizen Kane]

AWESOME!!!!!!!!! Really can almost smell the whiskey on ole Roosters breathe!

I've bought myself some rules and spent a bit of time with my friendly local laser cutter to produce this:

Howdy. The latest cowpoke to mosey into town is an ill lookin' hombre packing a shotgun and a deck of cards:

The other men who came with him - the famous Wild Bill and a man o' the cloth - can be seen here: http://critfailure.blogspot.co.uk/2015/06/weekend-painting.html

Nice work. The Artizan figures are great, I've got those guys undercoated and in the painting queue now. I'm just painting some Artizan Pinkertons. Is the Rooster Cogburn from Crusader?

I've had a game of Fistful of Lead and it was great fun. It's fast and easy to pick up.

I swear, I though ole Rooster was from Artizan as well. Now you've said that, I dunno where he came from...!

[Mason]

Nice work.
More lovely characterful figures.

Looks like the crusader one to me.

Looks like it to me as well.

Yup, that's the man with grit. I'm currently working on the mounted one as a 75th birthday present for my Mam as it's her favourite film.

What a great idea.
Kudos!
