YeeHah!!!
Project update on three of my favorite Western characters – Rooster Cogburn (Jeff Bridges) in True Grit, Virgil Cole (Ed Harris) and Everett Hitch (Viggo Mortensen) in Appaloosa. All three figures have been completed, pending their gun rigs and some fine tuning. The Rooster Cogburn figure looks pretty fine, still needs an eyepatch though.
Here’s snatches of quotes from both movies:
True Grit (2010)
After missing a shot on a bottle he threw up in the air.
Rooster Cogburn : “That Chinaman is running them cheap shells on me again.”
LaBoeuf : “I thought you gonna say the sun was in your eyes. That is to say, your Eye! “
Rooster Cogburn : “We’ll sleep here and follow in the morning.”
Mattie Ross : “But we promised to bury the poor soul inside! “
Rooster Cogburn : “Ground’s too hard. If them men wanted a decent burial, they should have gotten themselves kilt in summer.”
Appaloosa (2008)
After a shoot-out.
Everett Hitch : “That was quick.”
Virgil Cole : “Yeah, everybody could shoot.”
