As you may have guessed by now I’m a bit of a fan of Printable Scenery’s 3D printable models. I’ve already printed an elven tower, city wall, gateway and mine, but what really drew me to their models was the amazing Lost Ships range. I just couldn’t find a reason to make them though…

Well eventually I gave in and found a reason. Looking around I could see that the ideal game for these is Blood and Plunder by Firelock Games. In fact it’s quite obvious that the range was intended for that game specifically. (Though the fantasy models don’t fit.) So I decided it was time to start collecting and hopefully playing that. 

I’ve bought the English and French starter sets, 25 miniatures in each and painted up the English models first. I then decided I would build my first ship before moving onto the French. I chose the Sloop as a first attempt as it was probably the most common ship for Pirates in the 17th Century. 

Anyway, the English Pirates and Sloop are now complete, including rigging, sails and cannons.

So, next up is painting the French starter set, then I’ll start on the Brigantine, which is currently printing behind me….
