Brickbeard's Revenge

It was a dark and stormy night...

A long time ago, the infamous Captain Brickbeard and his crew were escaping from the Imperial Navy when their ship struck a large rock. The ship was destroyed, and none of the crew was ever found...

Since then, whenever a pirate ship sails through those very waters, people say that Brickbeard and his ghastly crew are still there, waiting for ships to sink and for more pirates to add to their crew.

My model is a cutaway of one of these unfortunate ships. With a pale, full moon, the newer style pirate crew is being chased in the night by Brickbeard and ghosts of the older style of pirates. I built the deck, where Brickbeard has found the ship's captain and first mate by the storage crates... and his ghost cat has found a large rat! Below deck, the rest of the crew is chased by the other ghosts, hoping to avoid sharing in their fate.

Dioramas and vignettes are my favorite builds, and I was glad I could translate a pirate ship into this style.

Enjoy!
