I've just been enjoying your tales of the "Piratesregatta" Marco, absolutely breathtaking!
I'm really impressed (and jealous) of what you have done with some clever customising, some splendid non-Playmobil additions (various buildings, backgrounds, furniture, and the ship's launch, that's not Playmobil is it?), good lighting and photography, and a clever and well told storyline.
Plus there's the little touches, like Kolonel Mayson's hat falling off as he jumps off the dock and swims towards HMS Renown.
Besides all that work, there's clearly been a lot of research done to get all the details right, or as right as I can tell. I'm a big fan of the Hornblower stories, and Nelsonic era naval warfare generally, and it all looks and feels right.
Once again, big thanks and a bow to Geobra for their Playmobil invention which makes all this possible. The 3" figures are just perfect for this sort of storytelling, being big enough to have individual personalities, and small enough to make a collection of hundreds of figures still reasonable on the pocket!
