Hi there!
I've been lurking on this board for quite a while now and what i saw did help a lot to keep me on track while painting some privateers. Now I registered to show you some pics in return!

Captain Hendrik van de Slampen, Doctor Boerhaave, Jan Cux

Deck Hands Maart & Jaffar

Deck Hands Piet & Claas

The whole crew, I hope you like them...

Welcome aboard, and excellent job on the painting too... Hendrick looks excellent...

So another top class painter to show up my poor painting skills huh?

Very nice, but now we want to see the ship....

Lovely paintwork

They are all top class - especially love the Captain.

He is a nice choice of miniature for a non pirate Captain.

I assume they are for LotHS? Are any of them to be Mercenaries (maybe Maart & Jaffar)?

Not another very talented painter on the forum!

What chance have the rest of us got

Welcome! I really like the colours you've picked and the flesh tones are really well done

Welcome - and rather beautiful work there Sir!

Now you almost made me drop the project I'm working at to get back to pirates

Did you use a towel or some kind of rug for the water? Seems to work well, maybe one could soak a piece of that fabric with thinned white glue (or maybe blue paint?), let it dry, and then paint/highlight the 'waves'....

Thank's for your kind words

Only Jaffar is a Mercenary, all the others are Mariners. There are 2 more Mercs (with blunderbuss) on the painting table before the crew is finished.

Actually, you're right! I did use a towel, but thats only for the pics. I plan to build a quartered 4x4 table and the pictured island will be part of it. The sea will be made of clear silicone over blue painted foam.

Can't wait to see how THAT looks

Very nice painting! Welcome aboard!

With those painting skills you won't be made to walk the plank!
