Long Time, No Blog

EVERYTHING has been getting on top of me of late - notwithstanding the loss of my Father, he was more than just my Dad - he was a good friend.

Still, things move on - and "hobby activity" is starting to increase again - and I've been pottering with my Crews again - I am making a concerted Effort to Paint two Pirate Crews, as I am sick of playing games with "naked" (as in unpainted) Miniatures.

1st Pirate Crew - Barco Malcaduco, Mono, 2 Pirates , Cuchillo, Spitfire, & Matelot.

Gear - Additional Armour, Increased Range, & Jar of Mud.

Total - 500 Doubloons

My Mono, both Pirates, are already Painted for the first Crew - so thats something. Just need to crack on (along with many MANY other projects) with the rest - now its a case of climbing that "hill" to finish things - I'm like a butterfly with everything since the Funeral.

So Much To Do!

Painting Update - Leathery Joe Finished!

After a MOUNTAIN of other Commitments I’ve finally started on my FF Pirates that I’ve had for what seems like an eternity – and with the very first Freebooter miniature I ever owned “Leather Joe” (who I call Leathery Joe) who I’m using as an alternate Pose for a Pirate Crewman in my Pirate Queen led Crew.

Not the best I’ve done (something I tend to say I know - paranoia is a killer for me) but he’ll do for now, and at least I’ve made a start. You can’t tell properly in the picture, but his right trouser leg is quartered red and white.

I actually finished painting the Pirate Queens Powder Monkey last night too, and shall hopefully finish the Pirate Queen tonight!
