OK - I don't post a lot of WiP pics - but I'm kinda' needin' help w/ this 1... needin' a blunderbuss, a flintlock pistol & a scimitar "damascas" style blade (all in 1:10 scale) to convert to steampunk weapons... I know Pirates of the Carribean figs might have the firearms I need, but, the scimitar blade is a real ??? - if any1 has any thoughts, I would greatly appreciate it... thnx.











Basically, it's a kitbash of a 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea Wave Rider Cap't Nemo w/ parts from a Bioshock2 Big Sister... swapped right arm from Big Sister (needs some sculpting) - removed harness for scuba tank & added a valve handle (mouthpiece does fit the nose & mouth) - performed a bit of surgery on 1 leg so far, 4 comparison (dive boots & bolted on steel bar in place of boot fin) - added the belt buckle - the shoulder armor - the rear packs/sash & the chin braid...

The Damascene effect comes from the forging, so you should be able to replicate it with paint on whatever blade you choose.

For a blunderbuss i would go with something from the Chap Mei Pirate line. The figures are 1:!18 but the weapons are generally scaled for 1:12ish.
