Masterpiece
I have seen and enjoyed the mud men figurines on certain Bonsai presentations. I am an American and have absolutely zero ties to the orient, I would love to find an American or even European styled mud men type figures for Bonsai. I would love a Tom Sawyer type figure, boy in shorts and straw hat with a cane pole, or maybe a miniature wagon like the type the westerners would take along on a cattle drive to carry their provisions. I would love a small log cabin, or maybe even a miniature outhouse complete with quarter-moon peep hole on the door. The way I look at it is it would be more contemporary with what I am interested in, namely old trees I have seen in America. Any ideas where one would find something like this? I have even thought of the little plastic cowboy and indian sets I used to play with as a child maybe using an indian with a spear or the little teepee or the old well that came with those sets and painting them a muted brown to use as a silhouette figure, but they do not seem to be available these days of Xbox and Ipad.
