Does anyone have pictures of Peter Pig's Mexicans (from their Wild West range)? peterpig.co.uk/range15.htm Hopefully, with large sombreros and ponchos. Either that, or I may need to make sombreros and ponchos to some Rebel Minis' Greys, to get something like this: link picture link link link link rebelminis.com/15algru.html Thanks. Dan TMP link |

No pictures but I have 24 of them with 1 mounted, 1 dismounted and 1 casualty each for Western skirmish. They are in what are clearly in sombreros but of only moderate size and other than one of the specialty figures, I don't recall any ponchos. |

No ponchos? Hmm. Does anyone else out there make "small" 15mm stereotypical Mexicans with sombreros and ponchos? Thanks. Dan |

I expecting an order of 15mm Mexican irregulars from the OG MAW series. These are with sombreros, but I am not sure about ponchos. I shall have to wait next week. In either case, I was planning to add rolled up cloaks and vests to create variety for my Llaneros. Ponchos, using Body Putty, would not be hard to make.

1) I was hoping to start with a "short" (true?) 15mm Mexican figure and just modify the head to look like that of a Grey. 2) However, now that I think of it, the idea of just adding a Mexican hat and poncho to an otherwise naked Rebel Minis' Grey seems better still: link So, should I go with option 1 or 2?

Can anyone describe what the Peter Pig Mexicans with dynamite pack looks look like? A picture would be even better. Graham |

Option two would offer variety. You could have the sombreros held to their chests, in one hand, multiple options. Ponchos could be rolled up and draped over a shoulder and not necessarily with a Clint Eastwood look. |
