Pirates for September - 1st game for the crew last night
« on: 07 September 2011, 05:29:20 AM »
My local club NWA (Nunawading Wargames Association) are having a special "Pirates in September"... Arg!
So, here are my scurvey dogs ready to take to the Spanish Main. The captain is still on the painting table but any one of these worthy scum can stand in during the meantime.

Mary Long Shanks, Dirty Edna, Gluten Free Pete, Hairy Samuel


Black Frank, Dangerous Ernie, Scurvey Brenda, Filthy Fanny


Bristol Sally, Rummy Jake, Jacknife Trevor


Pig Eye Peg, Scupper Dog Jim, Ethel the Red

Below is a link to my blog. It's the place where I write uninteresting things about little toy soldiers. I do this because I refuse to grow up and behave like an adult.

I love Ethel's name. Is she ready?  ;) But Filthy Fanny? Ahem. Really?

Brenda and Sally at least are Eureka, correct?

Great names and nice crew! But... have you ever considered an all-female crew? (just because SWASHBUCKING GIRLS ARE MORE FUN!)  8)

Well, that was the initial plan but I couldn't find any more nice pirate-girls (not that I looked that hard) so I had to throw in a few blokes to make up the numbers.

Fantastic job!  I just finished painting my version of Bristol Sally.   After seeing this I'm thinking she's going in for a repaint...
