Hey guys,

Closing in on the finalization of the 2nd Edition of Shoot N' Skedaddle (Old West skirmish game). I've been gathering up pictures from painters of nicely done Old West minis and I'm a few short, so I figured I'd implore some assistance here!

I'm about 3-4 characters short, all mounted on horses…so if you have crisp, clean painted cowboys, cowpokes, pony express riders, etc. Please let me know!

Here is an example of the character cards:

The payoff? Nothing! I'll mention you in the art credits, and if you have a painting service I can add a link, but this is pretty much a non-profit game design. If you have some figures you'd like to immortalize in a game, please help me out.

Cheers!

Hi
Just wanted to say your cards look great, did you design and print these yourself?

Yes, I like the look of the cards as well. Look forward to your finished product

I designed the cards, and the art is obviously just photoshop from the lovely folks allowing me to use their painted figures. The game is 90% done at this point. Just need a few more painted miniatures --- I can paint, but not to the level I'd like to see on my cards!

I need to dust off my cowboys and camera

TurnStyle02 Mar 2016 6:54 p.m. PST

Unfortunately, what I need at the moment is…(goes to count)three mounted cowboys (one for a Pony Express Rider, one for a Texas Ranger, and one for a Trail Boss).

I have all of my foot fellas sorted, except one: U.S. Cavalry trooper.

Chuck – that Thief from BS is actually already my Thief card (painted by another fella). Great mini!

Well guys, I found a painting service in the UK which has allowed me to use pictures of their mounted cowboys.

I just need one final crisp clean paintjob on a U.S. Cavalry trooper from the Old West (armed with a carbine). Any luck?

HI is there any Mexicans or Indian cards in
The new version been waiting?

Thanks

TurnStyle,

yes, I have some.

If you're not in a hurry, I can check if my troopers are ok or if they need some retouch, and then I'll send you some pics.

Viper,

The 2nd edition shares most of the same characters as the first. There have been a few added, and a few removed. I'm still on the fence about an Indian/Cavalry expansion – if that happens it'll be months before it's finished.

Remgain, if you have a couple of good troopers, by all means post em up.

Remgain06 Mar 2016 2:30 a.m. PST

Hi TurnStyle,

here the pics.
They're very large, so I hope that, by reducing the dimensions, they could be ok for your porpouse.
Anyway, let me know any suggestion. I'll retouch the minis and I'll post the pics again.
