Good day fine people.
A while ago I introduced you to a project called SkyLander Pirates. Unfortunately the SkyLanders name was taken by some pathetic game. I am yet to come up with a new name but what I have done is made a new Captain. The last one was a bit more Mage-ish as opposed to Pirate-ish.
I’m stoked with the new guy. He’s even got a patch and a bird mascot dammit!!!!
Ahaaaarrrrr…
Cheers

This is such a cool, cool, supercool piece. What a glorious captain!

Skyraiders? I dunno, I’m not good at naming things. We always name our pets after musicians or video game characters…

Arrr… I was tempted to say “now you’re crowing” but I won’t make such a cheep joke…
He’s a great character.
As to a name, “SkyLanders” could be translated roughly into German as
“Himmelsteger” (pural)
or alternatively
Himmelskämpfer,
Himmelsraüber.
A local dialect term could be “Gehammeld” which is a variation on “gehimmelt” of almost killed. The plural (at a push) could be “Gehämmelde”, although that may be pushing it a bit, but “Cap’n Gehammeld” has a nice ring…

Oh, this guy is just brilliant, exactly right for the job! For some reason I am reminded of the Old Jamaica chocolate TV advert in the UK from the 80s (? !) “Cadbury’s Ole Jamaykee! Don’t ee knock it all back at wunce”!
Must have not been taking me tablets!
Absolutely spot on pirate boss! Let’s have more like this guy!

I’m maybe thinking Chocolate Orange doesn’t go with the image you project! They’re still nice by the way!

I think a “KILL ALL WHO RESIST, ENSLAVE THE REST, BURN THE HOUSES but make sure you leave the gardens looking tidy” sort of image! I think I’ve taken this thread a bit off-track, but I do like this pirate boss mini!

Cheers man. It was a fairly straight forward one but the arms were a challenge to cut into shape to fit under the cape.
