The Untouchables aka Prohibition Agents are the third Gang i’m looking at from The Chicago Way.

Dead Man’s Hand: 7th Cavalry Reinforcements
I have rescaled some of the 3dbreed Join or Die Wanted range from 32mm to 28mm to provide some extras for my Dead Mans Hand 7th Cavalry gang.

So first up the officersContinueContinue reading “Dead Man’s Hand: 7th Cavalry Reinforcements”
