Dread Pirate Malamute's Salty Sea Dogs! New photos 22/04/11
« on: April 09, 2011, 02:09:30 PM »
The first of my long overdue crew for some piratical fun. :)

I started painting these in december, only managed to get the bases finished today ::)

Not my best painting by any means, and I need to get a few more completed for a forthcoming campaign.

Fortunately I have this week off work to crack on with them amongst other things...

Nice. You know I have painted nos 2 and 4 in exactly the same colour scheme... They just look like bluejackets don't they?  ;)

Bit of a drastic way of getting some painting time but good work   8)

I dunno, you wait for one salty sea dog then four come along at once!

Excellent ... oudles of character.  I particularly like the chap with the tache as he has a certain 'air' about him.

Splendid.  :D

Mind you, they're going to be pretty confused when they find themselves on the ramparts of the Alamo...  ;D

Lovely work sir! I like the way you've used a limited palate. Most pictures you see of real pirates tend to show them mostly in white and dull shades, usually with only the odd bit of colour. Very effective base work too 8)

I take it you are saving the captain till last?

However, the miniatures are lovely! Pirates simply cant be beat, when it comes to flair and atmosphere! :D
