Motley Crew

A fine and Motley Crew of Piracy if ever there was one on the High Seas!

The last of my recently ebay won pirates now painted up, and a fine bunch they make.

They are Foundry figures from their older Cutthroats and Freebooters and Swarthy Swabs packs from their Pirate range. However, when I checked the Foundry website to get some colour ideas, I couldn't find any of the figures there. So maybe Foundry has trimmed back their Pirate range?

The figure far left has a grenade! I have been looking for one of these figures for a while now, after experiencing the grenade effects in the game. However, roll a 1, and they are just as deadly to the Grenadier!

I also like the Captain types shown to the right, I painted them in muted or less gaudy colours, thinking they may do as Captains of Merchant ships? Not sure about the chap with the hook hand, though he could be ex-navy perhaps?

An interesting selection of figures here. Another hopefully distracting figure in the centre of the row? She's certainly caught the Chinese mans eye! And the chap on far right looks like he's grabbed a swivel gun off the side of the ship. That will make a nice blunderbuss type weapon I fancy!

Finally a little extra terrain, I grabbed a set of plastic walls from a bring and buy stall at the recent Wellington Call to Arms. $3NZ unpainted. They have come out quite well I think. I believe they may be from a Warhammer terrain set, though it looked like several 'Warhammery' bits had been removed already...

Now I must get that Brig finished for them to crew!
