More Foundry Pirates

I've had little time over the last few weeks to progress with the latest group of Chinese pirates but yesterday  I finally managed to varnish and and finish them off. This time a less uniformed look.

Sorry about the picture quality



I've still got 4 more Chinese to paint, Dr Fu Manchu, his pretty assistant Fao Lo Sue, their body guard and another henchman. Hope to get these underway next weekend.

Thanks for looking.

Foundry Pirates

After a weeks holiday in Devon I thought I'd be right back in to some painting but it was two further weeks before I could really get going. 

I've had the full collection of Foundry pirates for 15+ years (mostly unpainted) and with the imminent release of On the Seven Seas from Osprey along with IHMN what better time to get some Chinese pirates painted.

I've another group to paint up - not sure of the colours yet but possibly a less uniformed look.

Thanks for looking.

As March slips away...........

.........I've fallen behind with my my plan for this years painting but some of it couldn't be helped, like having to paint the inside of part of the garage or making a pirate ship for the boy for a school topic. I opted to use the plans from 'Lengends of the High Seas' to make a sloop and my boy seem really happy with the result but he hasn't played with it since it came home from school and I left the sail off and left him plenty of room for his soldiers.

I'm hoping to have some pictures in a couple of day's of my latest little project - Peter Pig 15mm Mexicans.

Thanks for stopping by.
