Handsome figures Nicholas.
How many individual miniatures in the entire Boot Hill Tex-Mex range now?

184 not including separate heads pack cannon, wagon, flags and clutter.

Brilliant!
Stunningly characterful stuff.
They all look great but my personal favourites are Sam Houston and Moseley Baker, so versatile that they must be added to my mob.
I may have to have some of those Tejano too, sir.

Can't wait to hold them in my hands!!!!!!!
Matthew's sculpts for claymore are also nice.
The Alamo is holding now that they
saw Houston on the Horizon!
The rest for the Mexicans is over, Santa Ana 'El Generalissimo' is in view!

184, wow

That's quite a range you've built up there.
You should be very proud

You know... I hadn't had a proper look at the entire Boot Hill range since the company was new, and it's now beginning to dawn on me that there is a world of potential for "adventure gaming" (in contrast to "battle gaming") in that range.

I don't really game battles, or even large-scope skirmishes, in 28mm anymore so I tend to not pay much attention to 28mm miniature ranges of the sort that consist mainly of regular soldiers for "the War of Such-and-Such". Well, now that I'm looking properly at the Boot Hill range I'm struck by all the potential for doing small bands of adventurers and raiders, as well as small groups of soldiers on garrison duty or special detail, for the commotion and turmoil of 1830s northern Mexico (or what was then Northern Mexico). I knew about the Zorro figures since before, but there's so much more! Some peons and natives would still have to be scrounged up from elsewhere, but the Boot Hill figures would make an excellent backbone for such a project.

I'm not saying I'm definitely picking this up as a new project right now (I've already resolved to pick up several new projects just in the past month), but I'm putting it up there alongside pirates and samurai as historical periods of adventure that I really want to game on a "small-scope skirmish" level.

Well, a must have for sure.

Very good sculps as usuall.

Rhoderic, there´s a lot of potential for Boot Hill figures.
For example the second seminole war happened just about the same period as the alamo and you can use Boot Hill texans and us regulars for that conflict.

Fantastic stuff

Both the mounted and dismounted Sam Houston figures would work well for almost all of the 1800s.
