Well done! At 14 I think I was still slapping on thick enamel paints with a brush that resembled Larry Fine's hair.

Your color choice on the second pirate leaves something to be desired though. A blue and grey blouse with purple and yellow  pantaloons?!? If he is not hung for piracy he will be for crimes against fashion.

Aaron, you hypocrite. I saw you in that same ensemble leaving a club just last night, giggling effusively amisdt a group of handsome and similiarly bedecked Spanish men.

Its even better that the first, I love it!

Thanks to everyone! Here's the 3rd one - hope you'll like it:

These are my favourite figures you are painting! Good man.

Lovely work, although if you want a bit of honest feedback, I'd say that the blue and white AND the yellow and purple on the second figure, don't really go together. Just too many colour combinations on one figure.
Neat brushwork though.

Yes, a lot of different colors. But when I painted the figure (trousers yellow, sweater blue) I didn't like the colours very much (looked very boring to me ). So I decided to paint the clothes in two parts - yellow purple and blue white. But now the wear looks to coloured. Still I don't feel like doing to re-paint the whole clothes again ...

Nice neat work very good

I'm sure pirates wore what they captured and it fitted, roughly.  I don't think that going to a Menswear store for coordinated dress was high on their social calender.............

I imagine most soldiers in history, after a few days marching, looked very little like the uniform plates of the time.

So, now the last part and a great thanks to all of you!
Here's the pirate number 4 (and last) pirate for my little high seas crew. I won't update my crew in the next weeks. But there'll be an update though - the guys on their bases  .

All told: I just can repeat the words I have told on much forums - the models are great and I give advise to buy these models for your little high seas range!

tadada! The last pirate :

Wow! those are really nice.  At 14 I painted like crap but still had fun (my painting has improved a slight bit) plus the fact that we had crap miniatures compared to what’s out now, not that they were not good for the time.  So your lucky to be painting that nicely and have outstanding sculpts to work on.  Keep it up.

[twrchtrwyth]

Great painting.

[Bako]

Really nice, good job!

And the last part - group shot with bases!
