Really love your scene Brooknah! especially the Deep one doing the kidnapping, is that a conversion?

Thargnor, that is quite the boat!

Very nice scenes!

Thargnor, where did you get the wooden plank bases for those pirates?  I have been trying to locate some like that.

Timbor -  The bases are from Freebooter Miniatures, as are the figures.

The ship is a converted Playmobil one.  The upper rear deck has been replaced along with the masts and sails.  I added the fore rails, gunports, windows, ladders and all the rigging.  It took 2 nights to do all the knots on the scramble nets  ::)

Thanks for the nice comments.  The fishmen  were from Black Tree Designs.  They come with some great looking shell shields, but I decided to go without the shields for this shot.  The two"dates" were scavenged off of Ebay, so I am unsure of their manufacturer.  The over the shoulder figure might have originally been a viking reavers "prize."
 I had first thought to pair the fishmen with Reviresco underwater divers, but I watched "Humanoids from the Deep" a few weeks ago and thought it a more fun topic.

As an aside... I have placed three orders with Black Tree Designs in Texas this year and have had prompt and thorough service with each order.

Thargor, great entry...  I have to get one of those ships.

Very pretty ship Thargor!  I imagine that was a lot of work, but well worth it.

Brookah: I want to watch MST3K now! someone tell that surfer to quit shaka-bra posing and go help those girls!  lol

@ Laughing Ferret - Thanks.  It took quite alot of time, but was worth it now that I can see it finished.  Got a slightly smaller one to do for my Pirates now.

@ Chamberofminiatures - Yeah, their miniatures are quite expensive, but you only need around 7 for a game ... so no more than for any other game and they are very pretty.
