After finishing my latest Western diorama ”The North American forest”, I finally can start thinking about a new diorama. At the moment I have 2 ideas in mind, an Alpine theme based on the upcoming Heidi theme or a new Western Town.

In the mean time I created some new customs. The first 4 from the left will make an appearance in a new Western diorama and the violinist will be a part of the Alpine theme:

Wow - love the first four - might copy the first guy, and the woman (if I have the torso in the poptubs) :)  :love:

LOVE the brownish one too (duh) - and great use for that pirate torso (that one I do believe I have only one, and he arrived not that long ago)

As to the violinist, I find the combination of torso + jacket a bit too bright... Though a nice match with the shorts and hat too!

Thanks a lot! Go ahead, hereby the parts I used:

The (first) cowboy:
Torso: 30 00 8592 (the pants went to the violinist ;) )
Arms: can be found on many klickies, most recent one is the one of the trapper of series 16
Vest: there are more options (as far as I know), but one is this pirate: 30 00 8870
Pants: various cowboys
Beard: from this pirate: 30 00 9542
Hair: from the logger of series 15

The lady in green:
Torso: This green lady: 30 14 0570
Pants: From the hunter of set 9217, I erased the tie.
The neckerchief: Part 30 29 5120

LOVE the brownish one too (duh) - and great use for that pirate torso (that one I do believe I have only one, and he arrived not that long ago)

As you probably noticed already, many pirates died in order to create my Western customs :D

As to the violinist, I find the combination of torso + jacket a bit too bright... Though a nice match with the shorts and hat too!

Thanks to you I found the matching arms!!!

I surely have the parts for the guy, just not sure on her torso...  or the neckpiece in green...

But they don't really have to be an exact copy :)

Love how those turned out! I have a soft spot for shades of brown myself (you're not alone, tahra ;)), I particularly dig the beggar. The violinist too, I can almost hear a folk tune coming out of the fiddle.

Some new customs I made for a future Western diorama. Unfortunately I don't have the space right now to create a new diorama, but I keep creating new custom klickies! Enjoy!

Man, lots of great figures there. Standouts to me are the woman with the pink skirt and checked blouse, and the three wealthy guys. All are great though

Thanks a lot! I keep working behind the scenes ;)

@ Tim: the pink lady in picture 5 was inspired by a collector named PlaymoJesús, definitely check out his Facebook page: click here

The 3rd wealthy guy (the grey one) in picture 10 was a copy of a klicky by collector Jerome Dillinger, check out his Instagram page here. Amazing Western village!
