Here are my pimps! I think most of these are from official (or at least bonus promos, etc.).


A Pig from the game, Pass the Pigs!
Bridge from Basically Wooden
Castle for the Castle tile (not sure thats what it is actually called)!
Various pimps for Little Buildings!
The 'Castle' from basically wooden is what we use for the mid sized buildings. The other two plastic bits were from a cheap thrift copy of Disneyland Monopoly, (it was good for something)  :)
Don't love the plastic but I do like the 3D elements.


I just received the fabric bundles today with an on-line order and they are from Stonemaier Games. They look like they would take paint so I'll see if I can add some colour to these.
The Barrels are from Meeple Source, (these are included in a set that I purchased and is intended for the game, Glenmore).
The Wheat sheaves are from the newly released, Agricola: Family Edition.
 The scale on all of these work quite well in-game.
Cheers,
Franks

Wanna play Carc? Can we add just one more expansion?

Nice poll, but I think it misses one very important option: I don't pimp anything :)
Just the Core Meeple then ;)

FWIW, I read the poll the same way: "How Do you Pimp your Meeple? Just the Core Meeple" would mean I pimp just the Core Meeple." Might be more clear if the first option said something like "I don't pimp anything."
My stuff: The Caverns of Carcassonne | Wheel of Fortune versions | True North (wind roses) | Icon facelifts | Converting CII to CI | Signposts & the Château | The Vault | Riverboats & the Whirlpool | trade list

Yes, thanks Bill, it's a bit late to change it now unfortunately, as it was unclear.
Thankfully most people have put a note explaining their choices, which helps immensely!

I absolutely Love Carcassonne Central!

I just began my journey in with Carcassonne this week, and I am already highly addicted.

Reading all these awesome posts has inspired a plethora of ideas, and blasted my excitement levels beyond words.

Thank you for having such a wonderful website!

!!  I just recently pimped my Colt Express game. 

For Carcassonne, the dragon looks cool.  The witch and count are too friendly looking for my taste though.

I Didn't think it was worth a new thread but I finally got to painting the Cloth bundles shown above. I used some Games Workshop paints with Blood Red, Black and a Red wash.

I think they will do!
