Belt Fed Girl - 'Old West' Gunfighter With Two Pistols - By Colonel Bills

Here's my version of "BFG16 - Calamity Jane - Wild West Legend" which I've painted to use with my Dead Man's Hand Desperado Gang.

I kept the 'conversion' simple - a straight forward paint job over the bared torso. I didn't alter the stock figure in anyway, then people can see how simple it is to alter the bare-breasted figure, if they prefer.

I've one last figure to paint for the gang, then I'll take a group shot - and then people can see how the Belt Fed Girl sizes up alongside a Great Escape, Artizan, Ironclad and several Foundry figures.









Here's a photo of the model taken from the Colonel Bills website - [artist unknown]

Here's the LINK to the website where the unpainted figure can be purchased.



Cheers,

The paint job is good but I'm not "buying" the miniature itself (even with a shirt)

Interesting figure.
She has two guns and two xxxx.

Certainly wasn't at back of queue when they handed the thre'penny bits out!

Finally got around to finish off painting my Desperado gang, for Dead Man's Hand.

You've done a fabulous job on a not very appealing mini there. The overall gang look great, Roy. Who made the other ones?

Thank you

hey Roy,
the Foundry girl "?"  is from the India mutiny range , i think.

Thanks for the heads up. I've gone looking for it and your correct that its in the Victorian Colonial range. I have found the model, its part of

COLONIAL CHINA 1839 TO 1900

BRV234 Ladies & Porters

Many thanks.
