WILD WEST EXODUS :Deputised long range riflemen

I got myself a copy of the two player starter set for about £40, 
plus the old rule book for £10, not bad for £50. 


The box set comes with two 14 figures armies, lawmen vs outlaws, mini rule book, tokens, 4x d10s and a range/blast ruler. 

The rules are now obsolete, but you can download the beta rules and stat cards off the Wild West Exodus web site - link: www.wildwestexodus.com

Here's the start of the first crew
Deputised long range riflemen
5x Deputised long range riflemen 
From the two player starter set 


They are now ready to be mounted on their bases 


I've painted them in acrylics 
Vallejo - Army painter - model game colour and some GW.




Going to keep the same colour scheme for the lawmen






Not sure how to base this fella, 
gonna have to be a roof/cliff top scene I think 






Looking forward to the next set

1/72(20mm) Dio build

This is a WWII German BMW R12 Motorcycle and sidecar kit from ZVEZDA 6142. I've applied weathering effects and Brake cables to the motorcycle, still need to add a saddle bag at the rear then I can make a start on the side car. One photo show the Motorcycle resting up against a 20mm 200mm Bocage Hedgerow






gate section for comparison.

How to apply a Hedgerow tree to your Hedgerow

Rather then me explain how to apply your trees just follow the photos you can't go wrong unless you stab yourself with the pin tool or cut your finger off with the snips, always remember safety first, if you think your not able to do it then get an adult to do it or if your the adult then get your wife/girlfriend or partner to do it and if your still not sure then don't hesitate to drop me a pm or email an I'll explain how to do it have fun.













ADMIN AS OF 07/05/17

WEB SITE - www.magolansmodelworkshop.co.uk ( not active yet)

Thanks for looking. Just to recap still haven't sorted out my web site still working on it. I need to build three Dios for it based on a WWII theme (Bocage of course - farmstead is the theme) but in all three scales 15/20 & 28mm. I will be adding a figure painting service just to gaming standard in all scales, MDF lasser Kit Bashing/upgrade/painting service and a Hand-Thatching service.

BOCAGE HEDGEROW RANGES

I'll be adding a second type of Bocage hedgerows, not sure how well it will sit with 15mm, but that's not for me to say, if you have that type of terrain then it will fit in nicely.

Next on the list is my old Bocage Lane Range, of course I will supply both types of terrain and I''m starting new design of road sections, have been working on this for a while to be honest this has been around well before I was born back in 66 this is just my method. I do need to get this play tested. As for the old Bocage Range it will be still there for these that have it, but I won't be adding to it unless requested.

Then to follow is my Causeway Range, Trackside Range, Defence Range and Urban & Rural Range will cover from Normandy to the far East, which I've already started with the 15mm Bocage farmstead resin buildings.

So I've lots to do just need to find the time to do it, my shift pattern as change at work so I'm now down to two days off oh well never mind.

Regards
Phil

Should you have any questions just leave a comment below or send me an email or message.


The glue system I use for all resin kits is Mitre Fast, two part; Super glue and activator







 
If you look at the top right corner where the gutter meets the gable an air bubble in the casting process as appeared what you have to do is scrape off back to the stone work take the plastic rod offer to the gutter mark off with a tech pencil and cut the required length, add a drop of super glue and place the rod (gutter) in place as seen in photo 7
Photo 7 































Add mortar like two part epoxy putty around the base of the chimney stacks 
   


If you find that the roof fits too tightly then shave back the gable till you are satisfied, the idea is when you turn the house upside down the roof should stay on.




Remember you don't have to glue the shed to the gable wall











Your kit should look like this
Here's the Bocage Farmstead in all its glory
