More Cowboys

I am playing in a Legends of the Old West campaign day this weekend and I decided that was a good excuse to paint up some more of the huge pile of cowboy minis I have collected. These are all from Blue Moon and to me they have an early old west feel. Sort of late 1860s to early 1870s. Many of these figures are more like townsfolk or lawmen rather than cowboys.

These were speed painted in about a day and then dipped. As usual they look better in person. I am not real happy with how the pictures turned out but oh well.

Old West

I recently acquired the entire set of Legends of the Old West rules and naturally, before I can play, I need to get some figures painted. I traded off all my Old West stuff several years ago, before LOTOW was released. A few months ago Old Glory had a 40% off sale for all the Old West figures they carry regardless of the manufacturer. Since I have access to the member discount the figures were actually available for 60%. Well, I don't have to tell you I bought a bunch!








These figures are all from Blue Moon and for those that are familiar some of these you cannot buy. This year's free figures for the Old Glory Army were Blue Moon old west. I have the full set of the limited addition figures. I am pleased with the figures. They are on the large side and I like the sculpts. Some of these had very pronounced mold lines and Tim will probably point out what a poor job I did in cleaning them up. Funny thing is they are not as noticeable in the flesh as they are in these pictures. Oh well.
