RogueTrooper's Collection Part 2

The gun belt arrived today
I can't recommend this fellas work highly enough. It's everything I wanted and more.


It's very detailed. It even has loops for spare cartridges...which I've filled with tiny ones also from the same seller.
The waistcoat covers so much of the gun belt. I'm going to adjust various bits until I'm happy.....once the torrential rain stops



For anyone interested the seller is UK based.

Chris Potter One Sixth Western Saddlery.

Without the waistcoat.

It makes a lot of sense for your gambler to have a pistol on his hip just in case if he wants to kill someone who’s cheating in a game of cards or at least warn them to stop cheating or else.

Very cool Chris, looks like a quality item too!

Out came the trusty sewing machine and hey presto !! The waistcoat is shorter. I think it looks much better now.

Nicely done.

Thanks

It really does let us see more of the marvelous work on the gun belt

He looks great Chris!
He's really coming along.

Thanks all

So today whilst swmbo was "doing her nails" I did a bit of fettling.

First I swapped heads. I can't decide whether I prefer the blonde haired or the black haired look. What do you guys think?
I also tried to sort the bow tie out by super glueing a piece of wire to the back of the material. As can be seen by the tIe's absence....it didn't go well So back to the drawing board with that
I also sewed some buttons on to the duster coat....not that you can see them in the picture. You'll have to take my word for it for now ....that they match the waistcoat buttons.

Great looking figure R.T , I preferred the Blonde version personally .

I'm with Chip, I like the look of the blonde.
Hopefully the bow tie will come back.

He looks really smart Chris, one of your best bashes I would say

Thanks Dal. I like him a lot..and he's not even finished
I think I have an idea for a bad guy for him...maybe.

Chip and TNshooter. After going back n forth between my pictures I think I agree with you. So I will be swapping the heads back later today  

I preferred the blonde guy as well...

OK ok I give in

I think he looks far better as a blonde and I’m only typing that because I’m blonde myself lol.

Now.... I wonder if my eyes are good enough to give that pistol some detail?

All change  for a couple of my fellas.
My gambler (still no name) will be getting a new "Pale Rider" style holster and hat to go with his new Remington 1861 pistol. So I swapped the gun belt to the steampunk fellow (also no name) I also gave the silver pistol a bit of weathering and painted the grips too. He also has a new tie.
There's a shotgun on the way.. Thanks influence man  .... No idea who's getting it though.
The steampunk fella is looking more and more wild west. So I think I might swap his hat for another one and make him a proper cowboy.

Very smart Chris, not sure who came up with the shotgun idea, but what a genius, huh?
