Scratch built all the leather parts, rear boot, window shades and straps. I also lined the inside with leather and built most of the luggage as the ones supplied with the model were not from a very good mold. The rifle what was supplied was also trash so I scratch built it all from brass rod and carved wood for the stock and hand guard. The lettering is airbrushed on and the scene on both doors is from decals I made. 

Any comments are welcome.

Very nice !

I saw a modern replica used by Wells Fargo Bank  (with concessions to modern technology incorporated into it )

Your build makes me want to build the kit.
