Title: Pirates released!
Post by: Leon on 02 June 2019, 10:57:35 PM
After a busy start to the year with BKC-IV, Kickstarters and more, it's finally time for some proper new releases!

Pirates have been in our Top 10 requests for quite some time now so we've decided to give them a go.  We've done a nice captain figure, along with 5 different poses of pirates armed with musket, pistol and cutlass.  These chaps would also do duty as slave revolt / mutiny types in areas like the Haitain Revolution, so we hope you like them!

18th Century
Pirates - https://pendraken.co.uk/18th-century/pirates/
PRT1    Pirate Captain      £0.55
PRT2    Pirates / slave revolters      £5.25


And the pics:

PRT2 - Pirates / slave revolters

More to come very soon with some Marlburian revamps and then the launch of our 1809 Napoleonic expansion, once all of the pre-orders have been posted out.

That mean they were done by a proper sculptor, or are you singing your own praises ?

Nuffin' to do with me, Ian.  :)

Cheers - Phil.

(I HAVE made the mistake of praising 'my' own 'work' once.....Some Nappy (?) figures that Leon got me to tweak/convert....When he posted the pics I'd genuinely forgotten that I'd had any input on those !  :-[)

Will these be followed by a model of a modern Major-General?

Not sure on that, I'd have to ask the sculptor!

Perhaps our very own Holdfast would be willing to model for it?

I'm deeply disappointed. Why are the part codes PRT when they should be ARR ?

We've already used ARR for our Republican Romans...!

So can I ask when we are going to get miniatures of Hannah New and Clara Paget from Black Sails?

Clare Paget

If you have not watched this series on Amazon Prime you do get to see an awful lot more of them.  :d

very nice sculpts but only thing lacking is a "dandy" pirate captain a la Captain Blood as in the book, not the film. he would be in the height of fashion with back and breastplate and either a broad-brimmed plumed hat or Spanish morion

Got rather confused by the website front page today.

For half a minute I thought the Pirates had recruited a radio operator, medic and forward observer.  ;)

Medics, yes .... how else would a pirate get a wooden leg?
