Lonsome Dove: Gus

[Jon Metters]

Any Lonsome Dove fans out there? I converted this Andrea "Kneeling Cavalry Trooper" into Gus from Lonsome Dove.

Jon,
fun piece! I hope you don't mind, I "tweaked" your image in Photoshop to try and get a better look at your piece.

Hi Jon,
Yep, I'm a big Lonesome Dove fan. And I like what you did here. Very nice conversion.
A few years back Legends & Lore did a 2 figure vignette of Gus and Woodrow.
It shows them standing in front of a small section of a saloon bar and is in 120mm scale. Have you seen that piece? I got my hands on one but I've never started it. I thought it would be interesting to change it to them against a wall or something like that with the Lonesome Dove Ranch sign.
Thanks for sharing the pic.

Thanks for the photo tweak. Bravo!

I'll have to look into that 120mm Gus and Call. I'm a huge fan - AND I've never done any 120mm.

Thanks!

Jon

Very nice work Jon. Lonesome Dove is one of my favourite books as are the prequels and the sequels!
I really like this piece it captures the mood of the book perfectly.

I like that too, this one of my favourite films and guys.
You did a nice job.
When I see this picture I remember the scene in this film.
thanks.
