Off The Shelf: LotOW Tong Gang!

Last week I featured some of my old Cowboy Wars models and paint jobs that I used for my Legends of the Old West (LotOW) games. This time around I thought I might show off some shots of my Tong gang models that I've only used in one or two games. Having never taken these guys through a whole campaign, I am not sure how they would work, but they were fun to paint, and they have also come in handy for various RPG's we've played the last few years.

The gang is a mix of Pulp Figures and Cowboy Wars Tong Gang minis.










I actually have a few more of these guys done, but what you see above fills out the core of gang.

Later this week I hope to show off some MechWarrior Dark Age re-paints I am working on.

Thanks for checking out the blog!

Off The Shelf: Cowboy Wars!

Just saw True Grit today and it was magnificent! An Oscar-worthy performance from Jeff Bridges reprising the role of Rooster Cogburn. Anyway, it motivated me to dig out some of my Cowboy Wars figures from a few years back. We played the hell out of Legends of the Old West (I love that game!) and we mainly used CW figures to do it.

Here are shots of two of my favorites from the line that I use in most of my gangs:



As you can see from the above shot, the best thing about the CW line is that you get the figure both mounted and dismounted. This is perfect for different CW scenarios.







I'll take some more shots of the whole gang at some later date. Definitely more where this came from!
