GO WEST!!!

After painting up the last of the set (the rider) I couldn´t bear just to add the wagon etc to a future of sitting on a shelf waiting for an inevitable layer of dust, so I knocked up this little dio. The rest of the bods have gone into storage.





Pics of the Bods from the set HERE and the wagon HERE

  1. Nice work, the the donkeys/horses, the desert base looks really good. Not sure about the flowers though, I doubt they would be there, unless it had just rained :)

  3. Cracking work mate!I still think they are the smoothest figures(lacking detail) ever.The base is great but like Maurice says the flowers could do with being a bit more yellow/dry.If that picture was taken here in England they would nave needed a canoe.

    I know the flowers are a bit....????...odd looking and I thought the same as I put them on...but the whole thing looked a bit miserable without them so I thought what the hell.....and if I took them off now I would have to answer to Aunt Dolly...I´d rather not :-)

    It´s nice to see one of the old and venerable sets getting the attention that IMHO it deserves :-)
