Fantastic diorama!  Always love to western towns.  Where did you source the saloon porch supports. They look great on that two story saloon.

Thanks Macruran :) !

That's great :)

Love the use of the castle wood railings on the buildings! I will have to remember that! :love:

Thanks Tahra :) ! The idea was not new, but as I said before, I think it’s the only possibility to have a full balcony in Western style without modifying other Playmobil railings.

Fantastic diorama!  Always love to western towns.  Where did you source the saloon porch supports. They look great on that two story saloon.

Thanks Craig, as of the historical themes; the Western one is also the one I like the most! I will make another one in the future with native Americans, but I need to collect some more stuff.

If you want to build a two story Western building like me, you will need (apart from the Medieval railings) the brown 3-way connector (http://playmodb.org/cgi-bin/showpart.pl?partnum=30-07-0830) and the porch support (only available in brown: http://playmodb.org/cgi-bin/showpart.pl?partnum=30-07-0800). The connector I found on eBay and the porch support on a Belgian second hand page (2dehands.be), but I saw it already on eBay too. If you do a set nr search on eBay, you’ll find the parts (if available, sometimes you have to wait a bit). Of course you can always buy the set in which you have both parts: http://playmodb.org/cgi-bin/showinv.pl?setnum=3716&pics=on . I missed one on 2dehands.be for only 25 euros, I could cry!
