Seagoing Scalawags
Bennet's Buccaneers
15 mm
My pirate crew got a bit derailed by Real Life as well as the fun hovercraft in my previous post, but I'm trying to get them finished here. These are fun little figures with lots of character, but since they're individuals they do take a fair bit more work to paint than a uniform "squad" of soldiers. Anyway there are four more to finish and hopefully I'll get those posted soon too... because I just ordered some brand spanking new Ion Age stuff that I'd love to paint up! The eternal struggle...
Speaking of the Ion Age, I've slowly been working on these Geo Shelters for a while.
So far they're just base coated and washed, but I like the look already, kind of grimy and industrial. They're kind of small for a factory installation etc., but would make good colony lab or workshop buildings, or a small military camp. I have to say that, as with the Corbal Hardpoint, the airbrush was really helpful for laying down a nice even base colour on these, though I haven't even a novice's grasp of its more elaborate uses.

Yo ho ho!
Oh the year was 1778
How I wish I was in Sherbrooke now!
A Letter of Marque came from the King
to the scummiest vessel I've ever seen
God damn them all!
I got a couple of sets of these great little pirate figures from Rebel Miniatures back in January. They're so much fun! I guess I needed a break from so many "sci-fi space trooper guys".. or maybe my daughter's frequent viewings of "Jake and the Neverland Pirates" are getting to me ;) I picked up a pack of 24 male pirates, and one with a few women for diversity's sake. I love that in 15 mm, that was for the cost of like, one Space Marine.
(Dave Graffam Models has some downloadable paper scenery that'd go perfectly with these guys. Might need to shell out a few more bucks for a suitable photo setup.)
