I knuckled down and maintained my 'at least an hour a day' painting regime, with a couple of extra hours over the weekend - filing!
The photo on the right shows all the dismounted bandits, each with a duplicate figure behind them, with a few small variations.
Here's the photographs:
 |
Figure on left has had pig removed, other has had a pistol added.
|
 |
Leader figure on the left has had his left holster and pistol removed.
|
 |
Two standard figures
|
 |
Hat removed (L) and added (R), also bottle removed from left hand.
|
The above eight figures are all the poses available, though some have had bits added or removed to make for a slightly different variant.
 |
Mounted and dismounted figure (horses not done yet)
|
 |
Another mounted and dismounted figure
|
 |
Leader, mounted and dismounted versions
|
 |
Final pairing (bored yet?)
|
I couldn't be bothered to keep mounting the figures so here's a few pics, without their horses!
 |
No modifications here
|
 |
Hats either removed or added
|
 |
More with no modifications...
|
 |
...and their mounted versions
|
 |
Unmodified dismounted figures...
|
 |
...and their mounted versions.

Another view of the whole lot, dismounted (obviously)
|
I missed showing the roofs undersides from a previous post, so here 's how they're affixed
 |
'Blue' building roof, with scrap foamboard to 'key' the building - note also the support frame.
|
 |
Underside of 'shack' roof (obligatory blurry photo)
|
 |
Any and all store cards, phone cards etc.

Finally here's the results of cutting and filing my latest intake of unused/out of date 'credit' cards, that I regularly use for bases. These are all for the bandits' mounts and although I am still a few short I have been promised twenty or so more from another two friends.
The miscelllaneous bit of card in the top left corner of the pic, is the template I used to cut the corners off. Cutting and filing took about two hours - all done whilst waiting for the figures' varnish to dry.
I'm happy enough with finishing the first batch of 16 Bandits and their 16 mounted versions. I'm now in negotiations with #1 son to see if he can make some more variants using scalpels, pinning amd green stuff; neither of the latter two skills I'm competent enough to tackle, but at least I'm fairly accomplished at using a scalpel (and I have the scars to prove it!).
That's it then for another week, hoping you found something of interest and of course your comment are always welcomed and appreciated.
