An old gaming buddy has expressed an interest in doing some western gaming. We haven't gamed anything in years but thanks to the Internet we have kept up. I will be able to play a game or two in a couple weeks so I broke out the figure. As much as I like westerns you would figure I would have more but this is it.

Here is the group shot. They are a combination of Pinnacle Great rail wars figures, Ral Partha Banditos and a single Chronoscope figure. The Pinnacle figures were in bad shape. I painted them over ten years ago and it shows. They had a fuzzy primer and a bunch of mold lines still showing. I cleaned off the mold lines and dropped them all into the simple green.

here is a group shot of the Banditios. I converted one of the duplicated poses to have a bowie knife in his off hand and plan to give the other two duplicate poses differ paint jobs to tell the difference.

I am debating about using Gordo here as my gang leader. I am still deciding on a paint scheme but i mill watch some more Italian westerns to get some inspiration.

The best painted off the bunch is an Ellen Stone figure from the Reaper Chronoscope line. I really like the figure and bought it just to paint with no real plan to use it in gaming. If I don't use Gordo as the leader she probably will be.

The last three are Pinnacle figure I repainted a few years ago. The Model in the center is, of course, Prospector Bob international man of mystery. He is headed back to his roots and his rifle will lend a little long range firepower to the mostly pistol armed gang.
I am not sure which rule set we plan to play with. Either Legends of the Old West, Gut shot or The Rules with no Name. I plan to show with my figures and roll with whatever game they want to play.
