Title: 15mm Pirates - Minifigs and Peter Pig
Post by: Flashman14 on November 16, 2015, 03:47:13 PM

In two entries, I added some 40 pics of 15mm pirates - most of the Peter Pig stuff is older and out of production as is all the Minifigs stuff now that I think of it. Still, some great old school models:  

Here's some Peter Pig samples:

I haven't decided what rules to use for these but I'm more about land raids than ship to ship combat, though that will be part of it.

Very nice! Great figures and excellent paint job. I'd be interested to learn more about your project - especially which rules you'll be using in the end.

Cheers

Lovely stuff. I have done a whole load of the Blue Moon stuff but your look way nicer. :)

Might I suggest Mr Pig's own 'Pieces of Eight'?

I'm constantly impressed by the great work some people can do in 15mm, far to small for me, well done.

they look amazing. I would be chuffed with a paint job like that if I was painting 28mm!

Thanks all for the kind comments - I love painting up old forgotten figures - I haven't even seen Minifigs pirates outside my home in many, many years.

 I've been trying to transition out to Napoleonics but am distracted by another set of pirates tempting me. More to come!

OOP?  I thought the range was going full - perhaps only some redesigns along the way.  But nice work.  Keep it up, though, you need many more, maybe 1,000 or so.  No, I'm not joking.  I have more than that!  Seriously.  Okay, maybe I'm somewhat bent.  But you do have me scratching my head vis-a-vis the OOP comments.
