Native American posse

Stephen the heathen used to ride with Rob Johnsons rebs, now he is leading his own outfit of renegade Injuns. More to be painted over Christmas.

This little lady, was painted by my little lady Isabella aged 4. She has even tried to dot in the eyes.

MOUNTAIN MEN POSSE

Here is the start of my mountain men posse that i hope to game with over the Christmas period

A few of the pics didnt come out to well, i hpe to take some more soon. If it all goes to plan i will be able to take some pics whilst actually playing a game! it has been far to long......

new posses WIP

I took advantage of Wargames Foundrys Christmas discount the other week and bought myself over 150 new old west figures!

Not that i would ever need 150.....

plus I already have around 100 sitting on a box waiting to be painted from Artizan, Obelisk and war paint ranges.

So over the next couple of months expect to see a good few new posses as well as all the civilians I have been hoarding to populate the town with.

To finance the project I will be painting some goodies up and selling them off on Ebay.

You never know I may actually get a game in to!

DEAD MAN'S BOUNTY

I have just finished watching deadmans bounty, the strangest western I have ever seen, featuring possibly the smallest little western town, three buildings in all!


A strange story which has Val Kilmer cast as the corpse, probably the best acting he has done in a long while....


It seems to be both a parody and a homage to the spaghetti western and it is hard to know if you should be taking it to seriously

I will not give the story line away in case you should ever watch it, which you should if you are into the genre and have a spare afternoon free.

If nothing else it shows you that you dont have to have lots of buildings for your wild west scenarios!!




it has also got me thinking of a fun scenario for my next game of LotOW

watch this space!!

mount up

To fit in with my bushwhackers raiding background i have mounted them up. I painted these horses around 6 months ago but have only just got around to basing them after being enthused by the magnificient mounted posse Pat has painted(see below).

Rob Johnson

O'Reilly

Stephen the heathen

Comical Jake thornton

English Tony

Frank T winklebottom

And this is the Colonel, a renegade cavalry officer who will be joining the posse as soon as I have enough dollars to convince him.....

I hope to be using this all mounted posse in a game soon, so i will let you know how they get on.

US Marshal

A new US Marshal arrives in the town of Imelda, hopefully this means there will some more action in town very soon......

Marshall Jethro Black, Jet to his friends.
