My little Indy gun collection (and holsters)

Post by Christian Jones »

Hi everybody,
This is what I've been doing the last few days, painting some Indy guns.

The S&W is from Wade Egan and the Webley WG is from Rook. The Smith is resin and the Webley cold cast resin.
Both guns are very well cast and there is only a little cleaning job to do.
Russ was kind enough to sell me an unfinished kit due to the anti-gun laws in my country, thanks a lot.

Now enough bla bla bla, here are the pics ;) .

It's hard to tell from the pics but the S&W looks like blue steel. Unfortunately, it looks a bit like a toy in the 2nd picture...
The holster is from Todd, no real distressing only well cared for. (Knife is from Hubertus.)

I used a different painting technique on this one, I like the way it turned out.
The finish is not solid black but more like a real gun.
The holster is also from Todd with a little distressing job done by me. (Grail Diary is from Sarednab.)

Now that I had both guns in hand I understand what _ was saying about the Webley. You really have to be Allan Quatermain to use a gun like this one, it's very big and it looks like it's impossible to hit something with it. My girlfriend couldn't even put her finger on the trigger while holding the gun.

Don't know if some people may be interested in a painting tutorial. It's quite easy to paint those babys in fact.

Let me know what you think :TOH: .

I've got one of the Webley's to paint, but I've never done anything like that before and have no real idea how to go about it.

If you hadn't of told me they were resin, I would have simply said "nice guns" :tup:
