Looking very good indeed!!

For my pirate Do-17 I used Viking figures....featured several women hostages, etc., as well as awesome brutes. 1/72nd of course.
The range of 1/72nd figures grows all the time....just pick a store and browse, which is what I did.
For bigger 1/48th figures, sillyness of course, try Games Workshop for nice Vampires, Orks, Zombies, etc..

What a great looking boat!

Har, Har ! Radish, me bucko, ye are a lad after me own heart, I say ! Prior to getting into the ship's grog on this lovely last day of the year, I managed to hoist up the masts, as well as the pinrails, on Captain Jack's Bloody Bitch :

Wax on . Wax off. LOL...no sweat, sir ! Thanks for all of the feedback, I'm getting hammered by the serious ship builders, and chuckling the whole time. This one is almost an oob, and will have a write up on mm too.

Good heaven's. I am using more abbreviations than I did in the military !
