The brig appears to be missing a part at the stern, the quarter galleries and stern cabin windows, etc. Did the magazine version not come with it? For the Frigate it is a metal part. Also were you trying to portray a weathered/faded black with the grey on the spars? Usually RN ships spars were blackened or in some navies just varnished wood. Sorry age of sail fan here.
@@mekaerwin7187 I described it in my original comment. Stern means the rear of the ship in case you are not familiar with the term. Since that was 2 years ago I have since built the model. It does not have a piece for the stern like the frigate model. However most brigs that size had a cabin in the stern with windows but they chose not to add that to this model.
Thanks this had been very helpful although I must say a much easier way of painting the main body of the ship is to do it in peices, especially the red outline of the ship
Not in the magazine but they do give a link to print the sails for yourself - The box sets absolutely do! Each comes with a bobbin of thread for rigging, paper/card sails (painted by Peter Dennis no less) and printed acetate ratlines.
@@warlordgames I love the frigates, have just built it and was a dream to build and cant wait to paint it. im looking to buy HMS victory next up :) :) im completely sold. shame my other half isnt so eager for me to get more Warlord Games stuff :(
Its essentially a Napoleonic (age of sail) wargame using almost the same rules as cruel seas which is WW2 small boats. the scale for black seas seems to be 1:700 scale whilst cruel seas is 1:300
So the varnish does two jobs. It protects the paint from being chipped or worn away and it removes the glossiness that the washes can cause. For these reasons I always varnish.
@@PeteTheWargamer Thanks! Two more questions: Is the base primer required? If it is, can I just paint it on instead of airbrushing? Sorry, I just have little money to do this, so I want to cut back on cost.

These r the brigs in the starter pack, sadly. The schooners have the quarter galleries and the stern cabin windows however… I don’t get it
@@dnte666 Fortunately there are plenty of 3d printed resin models that are better sculpted and cheaper than the WL models!
@@ericboyle8296 can you point to where?

@@ericboyle8296 No, I mean can you point to were you get the 3d model files that you were referring to in the comment just above mine. Lol
Thanks for the amazing video Pete! Very useful. I was wondering if you're going to do a video on the french fleet too?
seems super easy to paint, cant wait to receive my set
Hope you enjoy it!

Great vid. Iwas thinking about buying this game but I didn't have a clue about how to start painting these.
Same here. I'd love this game but I can't paint to save myself. I'm hopeless. This would end up a technicolour mess.
Beautiful piece!
Do the minis come with yarn or plastic parts for the rigging?

@@warlordgames Thanks! :) SO happy about this new series

Black Seas a sequel to Cruel Seas? Haven't seen much about either. Thanks for this though. Looks good.

Cruel Seas has a bit of a rocky rule set, even for Warlord...like many of their products, it could have used a few more passes through editing.
Pete cann you do other nations
Gorgeous, impressive details!
You make it look so easy……..
Amazing tutorial as usual...any chance to see you paint some malifaux mini eventually...continue the good work...thx
What colours would you suggest if one was using citadel colours?
I always enjoy your tutorials and this one was very interesting! Thanks for sharing this.
Great job!
Awesome Job i would have drilled the canons
Very cool! I don't need a new game. I don't need a new game.
Will this paint scheme work on Frigates ? very helpful tutorial by the way :)
Certainly!
Another great tutorial 👍🏻
Amazing model! Is the varnish required at the end?
So the varnish does two jobs. It protects the paint from being chipped or worn away and it removes the glossiness that the washes can cause. For these reasons I always varnish.
