WIP: 🏜 Wild West Scene 🤠

[Admiral Apocalypse]

 

Howdy, all you fine folks! 🤠🐍

 

I'd like to show you something new that I've worked on in the last days, a Wild West Scene🌵🤩

 

A broken stagecoach, battered and beaten from years of hard ridin' and hold-ups, scuttlin' scorpions, colorful cacti, a weathered city sign with the watchful vulture, hitchin' post, rusty water pump and a black widow 🏜️🕷️

 

Models are printed on a Photon Mono SE using M70 resin from resione and painted with Greenstuff World Colors🎨

 

What are your thoughts on the Wild West theme? Is it a genre that interests you, and if so, why?

What are your thoughts about this snake-peak & What catches your eye the most?
Have you ever created a similar diorama or scene before?

If you could add one unique element to my Wild West scene, what would it be?
Do you have any recommendations for resources like books, websites, or tutorials that could help me improve my diorama-building skills? 

 

Feel free to share your thoughts, ask questions, ideas!!!🗣️💬🤝

 

The final result is still on its way 🤠

 

Yeehaw! 🌵🐎🌅

Wonderful!  I love it.  In particular, that vulture on the sign is just a fabulous piece of scatter.

 

No real recommendations (although the model train folks seem to have dioramas pretty well worked out), but it does get me excited to try the Shadows of Brimstone game we just bought.  
 

Edit to add: reapers giant snake would look good with this collection.  Also, some sand worms would be cool!

Well since you asked, of course the stagecoach takes center stage and luv the beaten effect paint job, but since it's out in the prairie it's lacking dust, I know you have not placed it's backdrop, but what I am saying when you do some weathering pigments will go a long way, so kudos so far to you, very nice.

[KruleBear]

Nice. I really like the stagecoach. 

[Glitterwolf]

Very cool, I love that vulture.

Wild West, tumbleweed is something I think would fit in.

Oh and coyotes and a mountain lion.

[ttuckerman]

Like it so far.  Just need to cow and or Buffalo skull.

[Chaoswolf]

Very cool!

Cool stuff, really nice if you play an Old West themed game (excuse to buy CoC Down Darker Trails rulebook?). I agree with @ttuckerman, you need a cow or buffalo skull.

[Admiral Apocalypse]

Thank you all for the feedback  and the shared suggestions!!!😊

[Iridil]

Looking good - the weathering on that stagecoach is inspiring

Better you don't ask the reason of editing🧟‍♂️

[Poilu_1914]

I love the colors you used on the bases; which ones are they?

 

[Rigel]

Absolutely splendid work; love the weathering and the basing! 
I think your diorama skills are just fine, but if you want some more Western views, search for the "weird west" and "western" tags. 

Those cacti are just beautiful.
