Does anyone know where I can locate some good animation-style Pics of Western characters for NPC use? Not photos or paintings but pencil or pen & Ink type pics. Red Dead Revolver (PSII) has some great art but I can not locate the concept art anywhere to use.

Both Marvel and DC have a rich history of western heroes. For example, Marvel had the Phantom Rider (http://www.marveldirectory.com/individuals/p/phantomrider.htm), Rawhide Kid (http://www.marveldirectory.com/individuals/r/rawhidekid.htm) and Two-Gun Kid (http://www.marveldirectory.com/individuals/t/twogunkid.htm). DC had Jonah Hex (http://www.lonely.geek.nz/jonahhex.html), Bat Lash (http://www.toonopedia.com/batlash.htm), Cinnamon (http://www.thefourthrail.com/reviews/critiques/081803/cinnamonelciclo1.shtml), Nighthawk (http://hawkfan.atspace.org/westernprofiles.html) and, of course, Johnny Thunder (http://www.toonopedia.com/jthundr2.htm), among others.
A Google image search should turn up a great many images for these characters, assuming this is what you're looking for. The links I provided are represenattive and there are probably much better images out there than these.

I could draw you a handful of B&W Images. They may not be pro style, but they might work for ya. I'll draw one up and see if you like it.

Thanks, that would be great. Send as many as you would like (there are a total of 30 NPCs without pictures LOL !!!).

Try to get some images from the LucasArts PC game "Outlaws". Some good stuff in the cut-scenes.

I always wanted a picture of my 3rd ever Rifts Character.
A Wolfen Star Marshal from Phase World (IIRC). He arrived in the South West tracking a fugitive Psi Stalker who preyed almost exclusively on Wolfen. I learned the native tounge of this world by watching something called spagehtti westerns. Imagine if you will a Wolfen Cyborg Bounty Hunter dressed like Clint Eastwood in A Fist Full of Dollars inclueding chomping on a cigar. The Phase World weapons looked like Wild West shooting iron on chrome.
He was a lot of fun. To bad the game didn't last.

Thanks for the pics! The last one will work perfect for a specific NPC I have.

I like it. I've always been into Wolfen characters. Add in the Bounty Hunter occupation with the style sense of Eastwood and you've got a winner!

Hey "Yananura" Have you got any pictures of "Vash the Stamped" or Millie or Merril ? They'd go nicely in a western game !

Oops ! That;s "Stampede" ! "St B" doesn't always check her spelling ! Bad superheroine !

Heheh...Stampede does sound a little more impressive than Stamped.

No I don't though I do have a figure of Meryl but I probably could get a hold of some pics.

You know, I woulden't mind seeing a pic of a saloon girl with sausage curls myself...
Then again, I do have a fetish for that type of hair style.
