Ladies and Gentlemen, some Ladies and Gentlemen - and Others

These unfortunates might not have been gentlemen...
but perhaps these ladies are glad for their state of deceased-ness.
Though maybe one of these lads is a bit sad...

but not as much as a widow or two here.
A booming voice?  Well, maybe not...
but a lot of booms when they're at work.
Not so loud but best stay out of the way...
of them when their hackles are raised.
And these men have their backs bent too often...
to spend much time at looking glasses...
as they dream of going home to their lasses.
These gentlemen may frequent a tavern or two...
while they plan some smuggling...err, business...
and leave their rivals green with envy.

All of the above were painted by the talented Joe R.  Many, many more figures in process in the hands of other painters in our club.  Still to come are the French, the Spanish, and the British.  Got to see the Dutch in progress today in person and they are looking quite good.  I have been working on the natives and their 'allies' while watching my team win again today.  Life is good on many fronts.  

Terrain has made substantial progress and hope to have photographic evidence by the end of the week.

Oh, for those who need to know, the dead are from Peter Pig and most of the rest are from Blue Moon - though there may be a few others mixed in here and there, perhaps one or two from Irregular.

(and a reminder, again, that the texturing of the bases will be as one mass effort to achieve a cohesive look for the entire collection)
