So I'm making a pirate Ork army. I realise this has been done loads of times, and will include all the necessary cliches. Bandanna, tricorns, pirate hats, hooks, peglegs etc etc...

But I was wondering if anyone

1) Anyone knows of any piratey ork and goblin stuff, besides
the Black Scorpion Miniatures stuff- http://www.blackscorpionminiatures.com/product_info.php?products_id=130
the Spellcrow stuff- http://www.spellcrow.com/freebooters-orcs-heads-p-105.html
the Maximini stuff- http://www.maxmini.eu/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=62

2) If anyone knows how to make liferings and anchors? A tutorial or something would be wonderful!

Cheers guys!

The empire free company for fantasy has some piratey stuff on the sprue. Anchors and liferings should be easy to make from greenstuff. You could probably actually find anchors already made from some other ship models. You could maybe even get some cannons and stuff from ogre leadbelchers

I can't tell if it's the paintjobs, but they look like awful sculpts to me, haha. Not really keen on them!

Yeah, I noticed the handgunners have a powder monkey before too, probably going to pick some bits up when I get the chance! Thanks a lot

Hi Waaaaghlord,

Might I be able to tempt you with some of my bits?

I have a rather large freebooter badmoon pirates army which was great fun and use maxmini, black scorpion and bits from model ships.

Be sure to post pics!

Cheers
