Thanks Keith.  

I am in the middle of converting/painting the rest of his gang. I have about a dozen figures so far including another four mounted ones who include Hellspite and Curlew (who appeared with the Scarecrow in the Disney TV production). Having read the original book(there are nine separate stories in total)there is alot of potential for this and it should be a really fun game when these are finished and on the table.

I am going to open  separate thread in due course with more details of the project inc some WIPs of the conversions and other figures planned.

I know, I don't know what's come over me.

And what's more I will be at the painting table again tomorrow with the next one!

This is unheard of! 

That's gonna be a fun game when we get to play 

Yes, but you do know Dr Syn is set on the flat, windswept Kent and Sussex Rother Levels, not in hilly, picturesque, clifftop Dorset right? So that'll require a whole new set of scenery... 

Very nice job, Nicholas.

Yes, the marshlands of Dymchurch under the Wall and Romney. Can't see it being a problem though for him to relocate to Dorset.

I like this idea, Mama.
Very original.
 

Now we just have to wait a few years for you to finish the rest of them.....

[Captain Blood]

A cheeky little entry here...

#059 teeny-tiny pirate captain, Stede Bonnet

He's a 10mm Pendraken League of Augsburg command figure, with a Green Stuff flag.



And just for the avoidance of doubt...



Gosh, those Front Rank figures really are big aren't they? 

[Bugsda]

  Awesome Richard, but If you keep doing that you'll go blind 

[Silent Invader]

  wow

I know, I don't know what's come over me.

And what's more I will be at the painting table again tomorrow with the next one!

I think it must be the easy and regular access to Jimbibblys workbench! 

Great job Nick - looking forward to more 

[Malamute]

Captain, Awesome work on the 10mm figure. wonderful brushwork.

[Mad Lord Snapcase]

#60   - ‘Duke’ Jacob – Roger’s Rangers

A superb miniature from the Galloping Major.

It isn’t really a cunning plan to insert my rather average painting of a 28mm figure after the good Captain has shown his genius on a 10mm figure!!! But anyway, it’s not a competition and someone has to go next.  

I have around 100 F&IW miniatures awaiting painting, this is my first completed one! So this club is at least an inspiration to get me started.

[Malamute]

Nothing wrong with that, splendid job on a great sculpt
