Well here\'s the next mini for which I\'ll be trying to find time to paint. Havn\'t done so much painting so far since it did require quit a bit of prep work.
Sail is done, the rope are on their way to completion and the wood is jut basecoated. I\'ll try to finish the wood and rop today if I have time.

Good to see something different from the usual fantasy/sci-fi minis here!

Are you planning on adding a plith?

Plith. A piece of iron made hot and put into an iron box, to be held for punishment by a criminal.

From \"Dictionary of Phrase and Fable\" (1898) by E. Cobham Brewer (1810–1897)

lol

Looks like the scene from Pirates of the Carribean when Jack sails into the port on his mast! What scale is this?

Matty i believe thats the idea since he titled his WIP \"welcome to port royal MR.Smith\" making reference to the movie dialogue, if it was meant as a J/k than ok.

That\'s the scene ;)
And it\'s 54mm from Andrea, which they convinently named buccaneer 1650\'s, looks like they didn\'t even notice they had done an exact replica of Jack Sparrow ;)

@Cedric: 1650\'s, otherwise poor jack will be younger by five years :p

And here\'s what I got done yeasterday, the Boat is pretty much done, still got a few things to finnish, and I need to fix some paint coming off on the flag.

For the colors, I intend to stay as close as possible to the movie colors. One notable exeption will be made for the flag since I felt I had to inverse two colors ;)

Say that to their site, but you\'re right ;).

Nice looking flag. Love the white shadowed with brown. I see better what you meant by the fragility of the flag. Can\'t you also glue it to Jack\'s hat?

Andrea do this with everything! Pretty much everything on there in the general series is an exact copy of a character or scene...maybe they can get round licensing that way.... :D

Is there going to be a base for this mini like a water type base or will you just mount it on something plain?
