Chester, Ellie and The Duck from the Gunfighter’s Ball Good Guys faction pack
Let’s take a look at one of the great faction packs available from the Knuckleduster Miniatures Gunfighter’s Ball range.
Some of these figures are likely to remind you of characters from Howard Hawks’ and John Wayne’s twin Westerns “Rio Bravo” (1959) and “El Dorado” (1967).
As always, most everything gets three coats, a base color, mid-tone and highlights. As always, paints are Vallejo unless noted otherwise.
