Now available—ya-harrr!
Wow, that was fast!
Looks awesome...just bought it. But that cover monster is some serious nightmare fuel.
Who is the artist for this set?
Callous Jack! I forgot to add him to the product description, which I will do tomorrow. :)
*slight derailment but placed here, because it gets more attention*
Talking about delayed projects - any news on those KM Paper Minis, Liz?
Ruyan.
This is fantastic that it's released about the same time as the adventure! Good job! I'll be buying it shortly.
Square bases definitely sound like they'd be a lot easier to work with. Thanks!
Even though I might not be running this adventure anytime soon, I love how you guys were able to get this set ready so quickly. Between this and the Pawns set, Paizo has really done a great job of supporting this Adventure Path. Love it.
And for the record I was already interested in running this and now I'm even more so. Great job on the figures Jack.
Would it be complicated to use these as Virtual Table Top tokens?
Awesome job again CJ! (I haven't even read WWM yet and I have uses for these minis!)

You should be able to use TokenTool without an issue if you want to make VTT tokens.

Thank you Liz. I was curious since they're made for printing. Will buy and try :-)
SomePDF Image Extract, Paint.net and FastStone Photo Resizer did the trick! :) (I never found token tool useful unless you want borders.)
And great art!!
So will these come out in the same rate as the AP? ^^
Parrot!!
If only I weren't scheduled to play in a Skull & Shackles campaign...
Might have to buy this and put in storage for later anyway.

C'mon...you know you want to... ;-)
I asked this in the wrong place before. Do the wormwood pirate crew match their physical descriptions in the AP?
Yes! Granted there is a lot of artistic freedom beyond someone described as "a fat, pushy bully with a shaved head." But I tried to make sure the details and correct weapons were covered with the whole crew. I also matched the paper mini illustration to any crew illustrations in the book.
Is this the same artwork as will be in Skull & Shackles Adventure Path Pawn Collection?
Cool. Bought, downloaded, waiting for the office to be quieter before printing...

It seems like you have all of the named crew except for Jaundice Jape... any reason why he was left out? I just used a "wormwood pirate" for him, but it doesnt quite work since he's a half orc. I'd much rather have him than Mapgie.
** spoiler omitted **
D'oh! Thank you for catching that error. Jaundiced Jape was done, I guess I forgot to put him in the layout. I'll see about fixing that today.
OMG! They listened. Thank you Paizo!

Why do products like this always get released AFTER we've already played the adventures and don't need them anymore. Wouldn't it be good business sense to release the Map Folios, Decks, card stock Mini's at the same time the first adventure ships so we can actually utilize the products as we play the Adventure Path?
Don't hate,
Just saying.
Love you guys!)

These are great! I mean really fantastic! I was already excited about Skull & Shackles, and was making imploring puppy-dog eyes at passers-by to run it for me, and then these came along! After using the first two KM sets like crazy, I really couldn't pass this up. Downloaded 'em immediately. The art style is different than what I've grown accustomed to, but more detailed and definitely not a bad thing. Once I get these bad boys (and girls...and things...) printed out and assembled, I'll be sure to post a review.
We've found Jaundiced Japes! He was hiding in the bilges, and has now been added to the PDF.
Great work. I don't normally go for paper miniatures, but with all the great individuals in the crew I knew I wanted something more than just my normal collection of miniatures. As for the bases, while I prefer round bases on my traditional miniatures, I really appreciate the square bases on these as it takes probably half as long if not more to cut them out and assemble them.
Just one question. I'm having a hard time figuring out what the two larger swarm figs are for. I don't see anything in the adventure that calls for huge swarms of them. The red "fold" lines on them don't make sense to me as putting a cross shaped fold on them isn't going to do anything. What are these two for?
Also while assembling them I found that the fold line on the Captain Harrigan row is not centered properly. It's off by about 1/16 of a inch causing the base tabs to not line up.

The swarms take up a Space of 10 feet, which is why they're the size that they are. But the swarm subtype has this pertinent rule as to why they're displayed in tokens:
The area occupied by a large swarm is completely shapeable, though the swarm usually remains in contiguous squares.

Here’s the thing. We have an obscene collection of minis. I got to page 22 of Pathfinder 55 on my lunch hour, and the NPCs are just fantastic, leaping off the pages. Then it hit me, my head began swimming as I realized I’d have to pick out about 50 different character figures and try to remember who they represented week to week. I come back in from lunch, visit Paizo.com, and here’s the answer. Thanks for getting these out in time for the beginning of the campaign! Also, super artwork, like this much more than the cartoony style. Three Cheers!

Okay, Captain Harrigan has been fixed and the Swarms have been corrected from Huge to Large. The pdf should be updated in a little bit. Thanks for catching those errors, Delthos!
Once I get these bad boys (and girls...and things...) printed out and assembled, I'll be sure to post a review.
Thank you! I'm glad you like them and I'd really appreciate a review if you get a chance!

Thanks DM Jeff! I'm glad you like the artwork!
Yes, CJ. Awesome artwork. I have to admit I was leery of purchasing another set of paper minis as the set I purchased for KM was too cartoony for my tastes as well. So with some trepidation I closed my eyes and pressed the purchase button. I'm glad to say that I was not disappointed.
One thing I would like to see on these product pages is perhaps an example of the artwork within. Some kind of preview so if the art is not to my liking I could then avoid purchasing the product and not have to suffer buyer's remorse when it's too late.

Thanks Vanulf, I'm glad to hear you weren't disappointed with the set! I usually do cropped teasers of some of the art but I haven't had a chance to do that yet as I'm feverishly working on the Raiders of the Fever Sea.
CJ,
Did you ever get the chance to update the PDF with those last changes?
Callous Jack, any chance that you might add "Dungrin the Whispering Dwarf" to the set? Dungrin was cut from the module but posted by Richard Pett here on this forum.

The pdf was updated but I'm not sure if Liz had a chance to upload it on Friday.

Interesting! Well, if enough people request it, I could add him at some point.

PDF updated—Captain Harrigan has been made to walk the line correctly and the swarms have been reduced in size.
How do you know which NPC is which? Especially the "common" pirate ones? Are the names on them? or ?

Hi david, every character has their name directly underneath them on the pdf. And once they're cut out, I also label the underside of the bases so if anyone forgets who is who, you can just look underneath.
