Hot shots!
Where did you get the ammo for his belt?

Believe it or not I'm not a huge Western guy. I never got into the older Western Classics and really it was Marf and Army that put me onto GBU. First watch and I was hooked. I've seen it several times since. Before this the extent of my interest in westerns were much younger movies/shows like Young Guns and Deadwood.
These two are my favourite shots, Wake

Rifle and cartridges are from there.
Westerns are in my blood. My grandfather got me into two things:comic books and westerns; which is probably why characters like The Lone Ranger and Jonah Hex are among my favorites. That being said, I don't know; as much as I love Westerns, that isn't the sole reason for my TG, TB, & TU love. There's just something so perfect about it.
When you hear "do you feel lucky," for a lot of people, Dirty Harry is almost instantaneous, but when you see that image of Clint standing there, hands by his sides, chomping that cheroot, with that swagger, and I really mean swagger, it's almost like half his body's tilted, it's just like "wow, that's it." I can't say for certain how accurate of a portrayal that is of an actual cowboy, but dammit if it doesn't make me want it to be. The poncho thrown over his back, the gun; the pure confidence.
Then, when you actually see the film, and you have context, to the audience, it's probably one of the most tense moments in cinema history, and here Blondie is, not even phased by it. Forgive my rambling.
Oh, and those are some awesometacularly amazing photographs, Omar.
That's my favorite too!
Part of me thinks that you should let the boys keep the living room and keep the other side of the door for Blondie; either that or build something else for Blondie and the rest of the trio. As it stands, though, that's just too perfect.
i'm building something else. It's circular. Has a lot of crosses.
Good heavens. I either A.)hope you are taking some artistic liberties or B.) want to know what you do for a living and how the hell I can enter such a field.
Oh and PCK, yes the .45 cal cartridges.
Honestly, though; this thread. Seeing how everything turned out, and all of the awesome photographs and styles, and how, through all of those styles, this figure consistently looks perfect; well, let's just say I have a feeling it may be difficult for any subsequent customs to beat my first one.
Thank ya kindly sir
Do you live in the US? How come you didn't get yours yet?
Not sure. It just left a sort facility in Chicago, yesterday, though, after being processed by customs.
