18. Pirate characters - This pack still exists, as is, from Peter Pig. Many others have since been resculpted since I first picked them up from Brookhurst way back when. |
|
These were finished many, many years ago but only putting them up now after finally finishing the basing on some newer ones. |
|
14. Pirate band - In terms of my own painting skill these are definitely more representative of my current style. I painted these years after many of the rank and file seen below. |
|
This pack too is still available as pictured. |
|
Artillery Crew - these are out of production but a pack of updated models exist. These match in style my old Minifigs pirates - really trying to get a deep tan look on the skin. |
|
7. Pirates with swivel guns - The swivel gunners are the same but the two at left are part of the old Unarmed Pirates pack. |
|
Really tempting to go back and redo those swivel guns ... |
|
I don't see these on PP's site anywhere so I'm not even sure if these were packaged together or not. Collectively they are among my least favorite - I've always hated "standing around" models though the three at right are good. |
|
These were the original "Unarmed Pirates" and have all been resculpted now. Oh - I just recognized the two at left go with the swivel gunners! |
|
I don't see these anywhere on PP's site either and I don't know why I only have seven. |
|
Many of this below are no longer available. It's unclear which figures they were originally packaged with so I'll just group them by pose or weaponry. |
|
Pirates with pistols - no longer available. |
|
I love this pose - I gather he's steadying his shot on his forearm. |
|
Pirates with Rifles - no longer available. |
|
These are the last of my old generation of painting style with the dark skin. |
|
28. Pirates with pistols - This is still available. I have two packs so I sorted them out by pose below - this is my least favorite sculpt in the pack though it's solid. |
|
I do like these a lot - great animation. |
|
These are my favorite Peter Pig models of them all! Great pose and I did my best painting on this set in particular. |
|
As I finish off these ranges, I'll try and put together comparison shots for sizing purposes. Left is Minifigs, Right is Peter Pig (now obsolete). |
|
Left - Peter Pig (now obsolete model), Right - Minifigs |
The only Peter Pig pirates remaining are the Corsairs, the guns, dead pirates and all the little water vignettes - sharks, etc. I have several packs of Government troops and crew as well. Museum Miniatures, then Eureka? Pirates are up next before all that.
You can see the Peter Pig Pirate Civilians - mob, governors, women, etc here:
