Old West Models

[durangod]

I did some poking around for old west kits and did not find what i would consider a huge selection. Mainly it seems to be diorama related with buildings (structures) and such. I did find some wagon kits.

Anyone ever build any old west models or into that type of model?

Airfix did some 'Cowboys' a good while ago - in 1/76 not 1/72 as it says on the box - here in the UK there seems to be a few sets on ebay.

And a Fort

Indians

Cavalry

And a Wagon train...

Looks like a really fun subject actually - I hope that helped.

Cheers!

Yes I have built some 1/12 scale Amish wagons from a 1960s kit of pine wood and balsa a couple years ago. I'll try to get you some pics.
