 Grabbing my camera i took the shots, 

So Box Art pictures are also on display below.

The rip roaring  Wild West, has always been of a keen interest to me although i don't play the table top games of today myself. However great figures are worthy showing off to others, while having fun! 

And so it was i bought both box sets just because i wanted them. 

  10 figures in each box is therefore my little start of collecting them.

Two platform sprues in this box for all the horses to gallop up a dust storm upon without having the actual need to move.

A Close Up View of  Bit's and Pieces 

Sure enough one and all

Need sticking together.

Which is easily darn good fun.

But there are a few options that can be chosen from each sprue to be fixed upon them.

Gun and rifle arm's are thus displayed here. 

With failing eyesight i could never hope to paint mine in such a grand way, 

But i might try later.

Along with a few scratch simple sample buildings.

The white line seen in the picture above that goes across the face and leg is off putting to say the least...

As an old style guy who likes to collect sealed boxes as well as the figure pieces intact within  them.

 i hate the fact that sticky tape had been stuck onto the box art.

i have always been a keen scratch builder from my early playful youth up until now,

So i will look into it again hopefully along the dusty trail ahead.

Here is the very thin glue i used, 

Which is the best upon the market place in my way of thoughtful  thinking.

                                                                       Ka'-Pow!

As for the glass glue bottle it has a very fine brush fixed into helpful place

 upon the underside of it's twisting on and off plastic top!

As always i thank you for your visit here,

and you are welcome to add comments if you like.

Stay safe,

Stay well 

And help out others if you can. BB

The Grey Squirrel

A View From My Little Slit Window 

Copy-Right Applies  

As was per usual i was sat typing away upon the P C, key board. 

For within my life story's do not get done and dusted!                

                              

                               Unless i set to, upon the thinking and eventful inking out of them.                   

                               So there i was upon my way of clicking out a rather unusual scene,                         

                                                                                  

 When high up in one of the large Fiddle Wood tree's,                 

               

My eye caught sight of such a sudden  movement!                    

               

                                And what then took place before my camera was such a grand delightful sight!          

                    However such a flashing tail movement meant that it was very angry indeed. 

                         Oddly i thought!           

It seemed as if it knew i was filming it.                                                           

            Although i was certainly not the cause of such  an activity as was upon open display!

    What an active beautiful creature!

 

   That Grey Squirrel, is...

   sure a Tree Rodent with a good Credibility!

  Far below it the cool charcoal filtered water of our large fish pond awaits its welcome visit.

  For it and other creature benefit greatly from it.

  Especially all the bird life that fly in upon the wing.

DAISY's Poem presented by Paul Howes

Copyright June 6th 2025 Therefore Applies

 A floating notion crossed over the Ocean,

Landing on the shore of my brain,                                          

 It kicked off its boots,

And buried its roots,

Then promised to make all things plain.

Developing my Elaborate Library Floor presented by BB

After well over five years of making tiny book style things along with 

large double sided book cases with looming walk through archways

my absolute attention lay upon forming printed out Victorian floors.

i was asked Why?

i simply answered, 

"for photo and film projects in conjunction with my own style of story telling." 

The full Victorian floor tile above was duly formed long ago...

From  adding together four Quarters of each floor tile.

And so it was that i began to spin out just one full Quarter plan

for the presentation floor of this very large Library floor, 

Of course within the Library that does not exist there 

                         happens to be many a story that lines vast avenues of books,                        

                                     that being settled down in such abstract files are in plain sight.                                

                           So this magical place appears to be needing several more realitive things!                        

There are twirling round about staircases of differing directions that stand upon nothing! 

                                   So in theory of my own style of abstract thinking... 

                                   this well needed floor plan lay's above deep set into 84 parts! 

                                   Now it will make up one Quarter section of my own floor plan!

                                    

                                      Until another  part, 

                                     here is one i will make in the future 

                                     or possibly in the  past,

                                    for such things are realitive within my own style of story tellings. 

                                      i Thank you Kindly one and all for your visit here.

                                     May you all have a fine safe day of freedom! 

                                     There are many now seen who clearly do not! 

                                      My kind thoughts go out to them. BB

The Broken Floor Tile presented by Paul Howes

Dated 06/05/2025

                                              

It has long been the case that i lived in a life style of puzzles which did not stand me in a good light when at school, however i determined at a certain age of learning never to let school interfere with my own education or indeed the way my life or direction of it would be setting sail upon.  As always in hind sight it is much easier to write of it now in my 76th year of ongoing Topsy Turvy Life.                                                                               

                                                                              

THE BROKEN FLOOR TILE, does exist in picture form  which cannot be denied, 

however odd it might turn out to be my story is rather a Tall Tale ,

                       written by myself Paul Howes.   So Copyright does certainly apply!          

               

Here i am upon my way to add flooring to my invisible library a place of higher esteem for Sir Percy,

         and Miss Estelle  as both will reach out from it to the very stars!                                                                   

Step one of this endeavour, was to replace that broken floor tile. A something i believe Mr Fred Grip Into Place failed to do after a State Visit of 1837 by  her Majesty Queen Victoria, and upon noticing the broken tile," What a mess!" She had declared!" This will never do."  Which soon after her leaving was duly assigned to forgetful history soon thereafter, and eventually even by the old Queen her self, who passed away in 1901 deep sunk within her own black style of end of life! For she had lost her Prince Albert, many years before and had worn black every day since her heart was so cruelly broken. And so it had been black was the norm most high society ladies wore to be in the favour of Victoria, and her usual much better dress sense.                                                      

However with the passing of such an ordered age of high minded extremes,                                              full colour had returned to such a busy bustle within the VOUGE, of Modern Times.                                

Charlie Chaplin, would come to see it most certainly in a new light!                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    

                                                            

That repair was never done and dusted because Mr Fred Grip Into Place, only knew how to fail at laying anything into place. So it was inconvenient for him and his local Council lifestyle of break and not repair. So way back in 1837 a very large heavy bookcase was duly pushed and then shuffled over such a damaged spot, covering it from peoples view until this very Year of 2025.
                                                               

In order to repair such a corner stone effect i removed the top section which is on view above.

Soon after i removed that which is upon view above. By pushing the two together on my PC, the repair will be made to that corner stone. Then after recopying this will therefore form a pleasing pattern to make it possible to form a brand new floor covering for Sir Percy's Library. Of course this productive action is well befitting the Old Queens directed order.

i will also restore the full colours from 1861 when these floor tiles were long ago made. 

There are many floors within this place full of my own imagination.

Thank you kindly for your visit, BB which happens to be little Me! 

                                                   UPDATE  11/05/2025 By BB

So i formulated the Plates myself, which means by cutting and placing pieces i can size any floor area deep set within Sir Percy's Library. A place for little figures to find fresh new adventures each time they enter it.

   Of course it can be quite a dark place lost within Time & Space! But you have to look upon the bright side knowing full well that you and i are not there.

The Lone Ranger's Companion TONTO presented by BB

 It being a very warm Spring Day outside,however because of illness i desided to address a new but old commic book in a differing light. i rangled each picture around and around turning them first one way and then another until i had printed out enough copys for this days need to include them within Sir Percy's Library, and also to place them here.

However stage one being the first picture of the commic book cover was somewhat given a colour wash to reveal the real back in the 1950's Day Look.

The second stage was to copy the name of TONTO for use as a book sleeve.

The third stage was to add another main feature cover picture then combine all three together to make each open book cover completely for free and for my use.

Well after all who else would ever wish away a rather topsy turvy day in order  to make rather small book blanks for a featured topic such as mine?

                                                  And so it was that another was added...

                                                               ...  One after another.

The thick black surround aid's the printing out process because it adds a spacer between each open book cover! 

This commic proves that they fight at night.

As i recall Tonto while the side kick of The Lone Ranger,never wore a feather but was always the one who was beaten up on his Saturday tv slot!  5 PM on Saturday has never been the same since these two that rode together left our screen and headed west.

                                                             Caught red handed.

                                                                Tonto,to the Rescue!

                                                                             Opp's!

                                                                Certainly ...

                                                                     ... in a tight ... Fix!

       Just a few will be printed out for all those shillings i spent on them way back in the day! 

                                                                   i o silver shilling's

A Glimmer Seen Through my Little Window presented by BB

Just Click onto The Arrow

 It was a once upon a time moment when i was checking over my new canon camera,and i noticed a very rare view of some of the pond fish could be caught on view by peeping through the tiny slit window that over looks a small part of our 14 x 9 foot pond. This made me very happy indeed. BB
