Another of my sailor customs...
"Ensign" this time is not the flag on a ship's stern, but the junior officer supposed to handle it ;D
His torso is quite common but it came with this white scarf in the new US-exclusive 5948 "soldiers' boat". (the scarf was as far as I know only available in very darkblue and came with the sailors from the white 3740-schooner/sloop/cutter, and the chinese pirate in set 3790 from the late '80s/early '90s)
His legs are the very light brown/beige ones with white socks from the Redcoat officers in the renewed pirates' theme.
The original klicky from set 5948 on which the figure is based, had the same trousers but in red. I'm using those pants on other figures.
A black tricorne instead of the darkgrey one he came with, and a brown poneytail wig and darkblue cuffs are added to make the "finishing touch".

He looks great! :o :wow: :wow: :wow:
If I could make a few like him,
I might be able to make a Swedish army for the Great Northern War... :!:
-
I like him a lot! That torso looks great on him..
-
Very good combination!! I used this torsos and the legs from 4654 special for first mates!!! But these legs you use Hadoque suit him really great!!!
-
Excellent custom, really sharp-looking!
-
He looks perfect!

precious Ensign Hadoque!

youre right about those blue scarf which were hard to find for late collectors like me, so maybe we'll have to hoard these white ones this time around ;)
-
great job looks perfect
-
Very very nice custom!
-
I'm jealous! I wish I had a a few! I've never owned the original schooner and sailing crew, so my british ships have nothing but admirals and redcoats being passed off as marines. I wish Playmobil would make more non-admiral crew members including bosuns, first mates, lower-ranking officers, ensigns, real marines, sailors, deckhands, a cook, perhaps, sailing masters, etc....
well done!

Great work, Hadoque. He looks just the man for the role.
-
oh wow! I missed this.... I LOVE IT! :love:
-
Thanks guys! :)
Meanwhile the Royal Navy is getting more servicemen! ;)
-
Now those legs work great!!!

Very smart, but you must stop breathing on the camera lens, Erwin.

Did/do I? ???
Mabye it's gunsmoke from shipbattles in my living room ;)
Actually I'm working with an old 2nd-hand camera, it's a bit dusty indeed so I need to clean it a bit. And I really should buy a new and better one and improve my phototechniques as well, but I'm allways buying too much Playmo so the new camera allways gets postponed... (several years of postponement already :lol: ::) )

Once more,
We need to find a way to have a ship battle together. :)
