    Hi, guys! And happy New Year!
    Would you allow me one more cowboy topic? So at the end of the movie and western adventure.
    It's happening somewhere in the Wild West, "Once in the Saloon", as the author titled it. Guys had to argue over money, maybe a quarrel after a stagecoach robbery and trouble is ready. Or maybe it's just the woman...

    In box.
    Cardboard box in a dust jacket with a picture:

    Inside I found six zipper bags, divided by theme, three with figurines, two with trinkets and one with large diorama elements.

    Floors, walls, counter ... There are no assembly instructions inside, but you can't go wrong as each piece has a different number of dowels, you just need to align it properly. The diorama is divided into two parts, it can be glued together and conveniently held, while painting.

    The back part of the wall, I'll be able to play with the aging of the wood...

    The railings, unfortunately to be replaced, slightly deformed, I will make them from syringe needles

    Bartender - poor guy, little scared, especially at the back nicely done, it is a pity that you will not see much:

    Gun #1, beautiful, just look at these spurs!

    Gun #2 P1030103.JPG

    Some trinkets, glass, bottles, bartender's sawed-off gun is also here

    Barrel and boxes, clock and counter brackets:

    I will replace the set bottles with 3D printed ones made of transparent colored resin, just like the boxes. I also plan to make some decals and inscriptions for the boxes.

    Well, I have to finish my Plague Doctors... I don't like to have too much unfinished projects.

    Stay safe, friends.

    An impressive kit for sure and, of course, I love the western period.

    Looking forward to your progress. :)

    Cheers,

    Thanks gentlemen for the nice words!

    I glued the main components together. It was not without the use of boiling water, some parts were slightly warped. I fill small gaps with plasticine before applying the primer. I didn't make rails from syringe needles, they would be too thin, I used set ones.

    It turns out that a lot of what is inside will be visible.

    I plan to make a folding base. this way we'll be able to see more precisely what is behind the bar...

    ...because I will replace the set boxes with printed crates:

    Crates and bottles:

    These approx. 30 bottles of the drinks, according to information contained in various forums about the Wild West, was a one- two-week supply. Shots were bought most often, which were sometimes "enriched" with water or with the bartender's saliva, if the client was not well liked or took too often on credit.
