About product

The bust Buccaneers 1695 in 1:10 scale by Black Dog model

The bust refers to the buccaneers of the Caribbean area, and the year 1695 in the name places the subject at the close of their era. The 1:10 scale is likewise given in the name, so detailed treatment of the clothing and the accessories is to be expected.

The buccaneers and the Caribbean sea

The term buccaneer arose from the French name for a meat smokehouse and originally belonged to the hunters of wild cattle on Hispaniola. Over the course of the seventeenth century armed bands grew out of them that, with the quiet consent of the European powers, lived off attacks on Spanish possessions and ships. Toward the end of the century, where the name points, governments began to limit this practice and many crews went over either to the regular navy or to open piracy. The clothing of the buccaneers tended to be a colorful mixture of plunder and seafaring practice; no uniform existed.

How to approach the painting

That very colorfulness is the instruction: choose two dominant colors for the clothing and subordinate the rest to them, otherwise the bust will fall apart into patches. Linen and wool will stand a lot of grime; leather, by contrast, needs only a slight gloss on the bends. Keep the metal fittings of the weapons in darker tones with crisp lights on the edges, so that they come across as used. The hair and the beard here tend to be unkempt, so with them you can allow yourself coarser transitions than with portraits of rulers.

Who the bust is for

  • Those interested in the naval history of the seventeenth century
  • Painters who want to play with colorful civilian clothing
  • Collectors of adventurous subjects outside military uniforms
  • Modelers who enjoy painting grimy cloth and leather

FAQ

Originally hunters of cattle on Hispaniola, out of whom over the course of the seventeenth century armed bands grew that attacked Spanish ships and settlements.

It places the subject at the close of the buccaneer era, when the European governments were limiting this practice.

No. The clothing was a mixture of plunder and practical seafaring dress, which gives unusually great freedom in the painting.
