I don't know, but he's good. |

Hmm. I wonder if he's still doing these and is posting his progress elsewhere. Dan |

Only thing missing is not enough outhouses. |

The figures look to be 1/72 scale or so. I would think about 20mm size. I use HO scale with my true 25mm figs. |

I think the figures are by Giant, poor quality knock offs of Herald figures. They were roughly 20mm to 25mm in size. |

Fantastic set of buildings. Must have stayed up late, or skipped a day at work to get those done. The gallows is particularly elegant. |

Sorta reminds me of the Campbell Scale Models wooden structure kits for Model Railroaders back in the day. |

I had those figures as a kid. The hollow horse and riders with pins on the legs that insert into the horse's belly. Definitely 1/72. |

In 15mm there are the Blue Moon old west ones in resin:
linkAnd there are scores of paper models which can be re-scaled to fit:

Pyrate Captain: "I had those figures as a kid. The hollow horse and riders with pins on the legs that insert into the horse's belly. Definitely 1/72." My very first miniatures were a bag of those, which my brother brought back home from one of his trips and gave to me. I must have been something like 4 or 5 years old. Does anyone make or sell those anymore? Dan |

Those exact figures were made by Giant back in the 1960s
link and even better here:

I can not see this at work, but I think these are the exact ones I had:

Wow, those are definitely the ones. Though I remember them being smaller than most HO stuff back then. Thanks so much! Dan |
