So remember way back to my post about sheep and the HO scale? If not, there's an entire miniature collection that's called the HO scale. (Hilarious, I know!) It's popular amongst the model train crowd. So in addition to my HO sheep, I wanted to add some people to take care of the sheep, and participate in various other resource related activities. So I went and bought some HO people...and now they are settling Catan. Since I made my model resources for the blog first, I was able to incorporate the people into some of the other hexes. You may recall me mentioning that they have HO people in some R rated situations. I haven't added those...yet. I'm really tempted. I think it would be a good laugh every time I laid the board out. Get it? Laid? Hahaha...I really shouldn't use this blog as a forum for my terrible sense of humour.
Anyways, here are some of the other resources with the HO people. These are all the Preiser figurines, but I think the naughty ones are Noch.

| Lumberjack HO figurine on the lumber/wood resource |

| Moving bricks around on the brick resource |

| Harvesting the wheat on the grain resource |

| Shepherd watching over his flock on the wool/sheep resource |

| Harvesting ore from the ore resource |
How big are your hexes? I had thought to get some really small scale miniatures (the kind that miniature wargame players might use), but even they were a bit big for my tiles, which are 75mm diameter. I picked my tile size partly to match the smaller size of the Settlers of America Trails and Rails game.
