Great stuff mate. Love the entire scene.

that looks great!  excellent find on railroad figures.

You've done a fantastic job.

MalcyBogaten, the Duplos are great building materials in that they give you a strong structure, perfect corner angles and consistent height all around whatever structure you are putting together.  I used Duplos (I normally use Duplos rather than Legos because even at the swap meet where I get mine Legos are far more expensive than Duplos and most of the time the larger Duplos are more effective to use in terms of time and materials used) as the core/skeleton for my Whitechapel buildings in my Victorian Gallery; see the results in picture 47 at www.warin15mm.com/Victorian-Gallery.html

Fantastic tip and thanks for the inspiration! I have seen some similar bricks in my Poundland store. Need to look more closely at their contants! But I think you may have just given me more stuff for the table!

Thank you! :D

That is just brilliant. Was looking at the pulp figures Boxing Set and thinking about how this could be done the other day! Bravo!  :)

Dan55, pistolpete, carlos13th, orm1, Amalric, Ragnar, and mikeland, thank you for taking the time to write and for the very generous words.

MalcyBogaten, you’re very welcome and good luck with your project.

Since my first posting of the boxing ring and audience, I’ve built a platform from Duplos covered by Evergreen Plastic that sits on the two sides of the ring opposite the audience seating areas.  This platform acts to reduce the visual impact of the height of the ring’s base and thus allow the managers and trainers to stand next to the ring without looking too small/short.  I think it worked out pretty well.

You could just use Pulp Alley itself! A bit of Interpretation of some of the cards may be in order? (Not really though)

But one idea could be to have them both stat as sidekicks drawing cards and only being able to use the ones referring to brawling or health? It could make an interesting side game? o_o

Even things like "Out of Ammo" could be played on an opponent to reflect exhaustion.
