Hello Challengers,
Earlier this year I pickup up a second hand mountain of 100 pirate miniatures in 28mm scale. They were in quite variable condition, some unpainted, some base coated or primed and heavily chipped. Some were clearly not pirates. They were in a range of brands, from very nice modern miniatures and some outdated simple models. I’ve been working through them to add to my existing small collection.
Above we have images of the latest batch of 13 and an image of the newly painted minis blending into the accumulated collection. There is quite a bunch still to do.
Points, 13 x 28mm infantry = 65 points.
Kind Regards
Geoff T
From Millsy:
I love a good job lot of second hand minis and this one is a corker!
You've done a brilliant job with the brush to bring them to life and give them a second chance on the table. The striped trews, vibrant blues and reds and mix of skin tones really sells the theme of a collection of rough and tumble pirates.
Do you have rules for these? I've got Blood & Plunder and really enjoy them. Great for both land and sea actions and with some really entertaining and well thought out card mechanics.
65 gold doubloons for you sir!
Cheers,
Millsy

Who doesn't love pirates? Amazing work with all the colours. And them being repaints makes me happy. There's something innately satisfying about restoring old things.
ReplyDeleteFabulous Geoff
ReplyDeleteNice work. I guess there is no reason why the odd figures were classed as pirates, they just arrrrrrrrrrre
ReplyDeleteWell done giving these unwanted figures a chance to shine, they look fantastic.
