18th Century Sailors/Pirates
The HaT British Marines and Sailors drafted in as either Bodstonian Naval Crew or members of Capn Jack Dore´s band of Pirates. Thanks to Peter (Peter´s Cave) for kindly sending me these. :-D

The set suffers from a bit of flash but seeing as they are made using the harder type of plastic, removing it is easy.
Guncrew poses. The Bod on the far left is pulling a lanyard (?)
Hand to hand Fighting poses
A 24 and a 32 pdr
Here they are with other salty dog associates aboard the Daniels Pride, stolen from the Bodston Harbour in the spring of 1728.

Quite clever. I've been thinking of something similar to man my ship.

ReplyDeleteNice work Paul, real hearts of oak!
ReplyDeleteExcellent figures (I've them too .... it seems by the same way ... )
ReplyDeleteI would like to paint them for my pirates ship(s) ... but later, don't know when!
I must forget yours before : they are too well painted and I wouldn't like to do the comparison !
Hello and good morning.
ReplyDeleteVery successful in the characters and all the ship's deck.
Besides, I like the pirate theme, such as a few movies (theater)
The sailors looks great Paul!
ReplyDeleteGreat models , and great paint Paul .
ReplyDeleteCheers .
Tremendous Paul, the chap trying to lift the cannonball is a really great sculpt.
ReplyDeleteGreat work. Looks like this set is a must have.
ReplyDeleteNice modeling, Paul. BTW, the "lanyard puller" might also be used as a fighter. Looks like he is ready to throw a downward right jab.
ReplyDeleteVery nice Paul. What model is the Daniel's Pride?
ReplyDeleteThanks:-D The "Daniel´s Pride" is entirely scratch built, from the hull down to the rigging pulleys
