More models for pirate adventures

Received another small order to paint a couple more Black Scorpion Miniatures models, the same guys as before being the customers. 3 "able seamen/pirates) and 1 officer with a ridiculously oversized meat hook.

This little job reached me just as my final written exam for school is underway so I’ll see when I can squeeze in the remaining 3 but I plan to have all 4 painted sometime next week.

The matt varnish left the dark red vest slightly glossy, I’ll see if I can fix t hat during my next painting session. I’ve realized there are some colors that pretty much have a higher risk of ending up like this. Don’t really know the reason behind it, but colors that dry with a “wax” like surface seem to be more prone to this than other paints. If only I had that famous Testors Dullcote
