The print files here are in 1:72 scale, so this falls into resin printer territory. This set of miniature sailors are intended for use with scales of 1:120 and smaller so you will likely be scaling these men down further. The sailors provide you with crews for your model sailing ships of the 17th and 16th centuries. My initial motivation here was my 1:120 model of (probably) the most famous cargo fluyt in history (shown in pictures here). Another instance where I used them recently is a little pirate brigantine on some of the other pictures which really started to come alive once she received a proper crew.
I am also fascinated with anything that floated during the Anglo-Dutch wars, so I needed crews for these ships too. I added a picture of such a project here, such warships were like floating cities and their crews are taking me a while to paint up in 1:160-1:200 scales....).
As with the "Napoleonic" period sailors the intended scale here is very small.... dont expect a huge amount of detail but if you own a resin printer they should be an interesting addition to any scale model ships of the period.
Update 24.01.2021: Added a more high-ranking crew member, as well as a man who is heading up on the ratlines. Am putting them on a Brigantine in 1:120 scale now, so pictures will follow shortly....
