    Hi all hope all are well....this is the latest 1/6th release from CGS and beautifully sculpted by Carl Reid and equally beautifully cast by Graham at CGS..... Really interesting to do some research on Wild Bill

    The navy colt pistols are from the excellent armoury range from Reedees....thanks for looking Mike 20220411_142543_resized.jpg

    Hi Mike

    Nice to see a painted version of this , as always with your artwork , looks good , nice fleshwork and the waistcoat looks great , very neatly done ,as does the hair colour , like the addition of pistols to the base

    Always good to see your pieces

    Why not enter something in the class of your choice in FOTM , don't forget we also have the Vignette & Diorama comp , please take the time to consider and also do vote as well

    Thanks for sharing

    Look forward to the next thread

    Happy benchtime

    Mike, You did an excellent job on Wild Bill!(y) Love the color scheme on his frock coat and vest. He looks very much the pistolero of the plains! Thanks for sharing your work!

    Excellent work, both the painting and the sculpting.
    Pistols are Colt Army with round barrels, rather than Navy model with six sided barrel?
