Cowboys Assembled

Well, I spent the last two nights assembling all 48 cowboys and got them done. Painting them will be a different story. With AdeptiCon coming up the first weekend in April, I still have alot to get ready for that. I need to make sure my sons armies are done for LotR and W40K. I need to make sure my Fantasy army is ready for the Team Tourney, and I just found out yesterday I may be playing in the LotR Team Tourney that Saturday. If I end up playing on Saturday, I may have to paint up some more LotR to add to my army.

So the cowboys will probably wait till after AdeptiCon before they see any paint (then WotR will also be coming out......)

I'll still play with the cowboys unpainted until then, but probably just at home. Playing at a store with unpainted mini's is something I really dont like to do.

So come back tomorrow for a write up of our first LotOW game.

Black Scorpion Miniatures

So the other day I made my first investment into Legends of The Old West. After spending quite a few hours researching all the different miniatures for Old West out there, I decided to go with Black Scorpion Miniatures. They have a very nice line called Tombstone and enough variety for me to get started. My other option would have been Wargames Foundry. They also have a very large collection for Old West and I still may mix-n-match with them to add some more flavor.

To start out with, I went with the following:

Billy The Kid (x1)Pat Garrett (x1)
Sheriff (x1)

Tombstone 1 (x2)

Tombstone 2 (x2)

Tombstone 3 (x2)

Tombstone 4 (x2)

Tombstone 7 (x1)

This should be enough models for me to get started with my son. I eventually plan to add some of their Outlaw, Mexicans and Apache models once I expand into the LoTOW Supplements.
