Thanks, aggro! I named the Crew after the comic strip of the same name...the Fishy Fellows take a more direct approach to putting the bite on Folks.

These are probably one of my favourites of yours, especially the last one holding his breakfast. Great work as usual!

Thanks, luidinuovo! I'll try to keep it interesting...silly, but interesting nonetheless.

I found these guys so inspirational that I just put in an order with Four A for some Piranha Boys of my own. I'd seen them before, but never realised how cool the models were. Curse you, DeafNala! The lead mountain grows apace!

Well thanks MUCHO; your kind words are greatly appreciated, M.P. & tomoqui. I am, of course, delighted that you like my work AND took the time to say so.

I found these guys so inspirational that I just put in an order with Four A for some Piranha Boys of my own. I'd seen them before, but never realised how cool the models were. Curse you, DeafNala! The lead mountain grows apace!

Sorry about that, tomoqui...at least the Guys at Four A seem like good Guys. I must admit that while I've occasionally inspired Folk to pick up their brushes or, a couple of times, pack them away plus the odd chuckle or gag reaction, this is the first time I've inspired someone to part with their $s for the minis.

I'm a big fan of 4A minis and Have those Piranha boys awaiting my paint brush at some point.

Great colour scheme you've used there - might go a shade more blue-grey myself but inspiring nonethless  8)

Looks like your mysterious stranger really gets a kick out of his breakfast  ;)

I had promised Von Kurst of Tom's Boring Mordheim Forum Fame some photos of my Smuggler craft. Being a man of my word when convenient, here are those astonishingly mediocre photos of my incomplete & rather beaten up Smuggler Fleet. The Nasty Nancy suffered some damage from the Texas Odyssey; I decided to do the repair work in the Goblin manner. The Saucy Susan is still W.I.P.. The third ship of the fleet was left in North Carolina with Drugart. SO without further explanation:

The Saucy Susan:










The Nasty Nancy:

& a view of the cunning repair work:










A size comparison (N.B.; the ships are on a 1' boars):


Progress on the Ladies will probably be Oh-So-Slow, but I will keep you updated...probably.
In the meantime your kind comments would be appreciated...kind of.

Thanks for the kind comments, Thantsants...I can always count on you.
I started these in the Spring '08 &, until I started to repair the travel damage, I hadn't done anything to them. Now, however, I think I may just finish them along with the islets I've got going. Even if they don't get used for Naval Gaming, they could serve as man (Goblin) made islets.
