Simple Town People

[Klaus-Dieter]

Hello everybody!

Here's my seventh part of my "Wild West minifig show":

Simple Town People

These are four "simple" Western town people: a shopman, a saloon keeper, a lumberjack and a cowboy.

The two printed torsos (of the lumberjack and the saloon keeper) were designed by tyger and Apache.

Comments are welcome!

I'm not much for printed/custom torsos.

The Kilroy torso works well though, as does the flannel shirt.

Though I think you need some variation in the faces, across all your series.

Thank you very much for your comment, Athos!

I'm not for printed/custom torsos, too. But these torsos were are excellent designed - so I thought: Why not using them ?!

I thought about more face differences, too. But I personally like the classic faces very much. And when you give nearly everybody the same face it isn't that bad I think. I see the problem with if you want to give every minfig a different face - how to do that? And when you give many minfigs heads with non-classic faces it looks mostly . The classic faces are in this regard better because they are nearly neutral and don't show specific facial features.

And for minfigs which aren't the main characters I think it's not a very bad choice.

I like the classic smileys too. I just think it looks a bit odd, when you have 3 classic smileys and 1 decorated face.

What I really think looks funny, which I just thought of now, is mixing the pupiled eyes with non-pupiled eyes.

I tried this with some of my City minifigs. You can see them (perhaps - if the pics aren't too small) on the pics of "My Lego City" which I presented here on EB about 2-3 months ago - or you can view them in my BS gallery. (But don't look at the other Western minifigs I'm going to present you! - That would be !) I liked this combination.
