Hi everyone

I am in the process of sourcing parts to build a physical version of my Lego Ideas project, The Old Workhorse - Traction Engine.

The model was constructed digitally and I used 2 torso pieces for my minifigs that I thought were suitable for the style and time period of my model.

The figure on the left uses the Frodo Baggins torso from the Lord of The Rings Lego theme but I can't track down the tan coloured torso on the right. Does anyone recognise this or know which sets it has been featured in?

I can confirm that I have the stagecoach set sitting not far from me.  It is indeed Jesus from set 79108.

Great looking traction engine.  Supported.  :classic:  I do think you should use your first picture above in this thread as the main photo (maybe with a little more angle on the engine)  for Ideas since I think it better shows off the design and all that's going on with the proposed set in general.  I had passed it over the first time I glanced at it.

That's excellent, thanks for that guys. I will see if I can get that part on Bricklink. :classic: I chose that part because I thought it looked suitable for the sort of thing Victorian farmers or engine drivers might have worn, didn't realise it was from a Lone Ranger set. :laugh:

Thanks very much for your support. I don't think it's possible to alter the main picture on Lego Ideas after the project has been submitted. A shame really as I've created a lot of new images since then that are better than my original main pic.
