I borrowed some of Jenn's I borrowed some of Jenn's "purple glitter" paint to use in the mix for the Madam's dress. Washes weren't working on the color that dark so on that violet skirt and the "Virgil Earp" older gunfighter here, I used manual highlights to get some texture.

So that’s it.  Project complete.  My first try with 40mm (1:48) minis.  Heading out of the office today early to get on the road and head up to my Dad’s, where I’ll given them to him as a birthday gift for his 1:48 Old West model railroad table.  Hopefully he likes it!

Looking back, maybe a few things I might have done a little different.  But it was definitely fun.  Knuckleduster Miniatures definitely recommended.
