Quick, lock up your cabin boys!!!! No, hang on, that didn't sound right at all!!!
Just watch out!!! ;D
Lovely sculpt. Hicks is a true master of faces, absolutely love this one.

Smart as paint, Jim, smart as paint.
(Though I think he looks a little more like Alfie Bass than Robert Newton :))
-
Amazing likeness. My second favorite Silver after Heston.

I love that Charlton Heston version. Never seems to be on the telly these days though, and I've had trouble tracking down a copy. Loads of great actors in it. And wee Christian Bale!
Edit: I guess it's a while since I tried to get it. Had no luck then but just had a look now and Amazon have it on DVD!

Kickstarter, late January.

The planks too good for yah!
-
This looks very interesting!
-
That's the best pirate mini I've seen in a good long while.
-
Kickstarter, late January.
Nice. I'm in!
Will there be more pirates to look forward to?
-
Count me in too, brilliant.
-
A rare bright spark, and ye may lay to that...
Yarrrr.
Who? What? When? How? And why?
;)
-
I am in when the kick starter begins.
Love the figure.
-
As soon as there's more to tell and show I will indeed do that right here me hearties... ;)

I like it.
So is this the beginning of a pirate range, if so how do they size up against Foundry?
-
There will be comparison photos at some point...
Still adding the finishing touches to this, about a week away from launch...
Paints up well though...

I don't usually back kick starters but this one might just tip me into leaping in with both feet. Fantastic sculpt of LJS. :-* :-*
-
Thanks.
Well it's been too damned long a coming, not aided by a house move, and various other lumps of everyday nonsense. However hoping to launch this tomorrow at around 3pm.
The KS is primarily for a 28mm ship called "Malarkey" including a Paul Hicks sculpted mini as part of the package. :-*

Fear not, a version of the mini will be available seperately, I'd not insult the intelligence of a fellow gamer by suggesting that the only way to get it would be to pledge for a ship as well. ;)

Hopefully some of you will pledge for the ship anyway. It's a keel hauling for me if you don't though. :o If you want to help me out please share this graphic...

I got my copies of the mini the other day and have to say it is very nice. I look forward to having it join the ranks of my crew. ;D
-
Is the figure going to be available for those of us who missed the Kickstarter?
-
It's also going to be in the next kickstarter as it hasn't made it's costs back yet.

One of the best sculpted minis I've ever seen! I will be a hit! Cheers!
-
The mini is very tempting for all of us who like pirate adventures and characters in an (almost) historical world!
The Malarkey ship is... also... very nice... but somewhat in a different world... :)

Sure, let's be honest it's the boat from the Time Bandits disguised as a pirate ship to avoid "awkwardness".
