ANY SCALE from 28mm or smaller. Looking for an 1800s-early 1900s era crew to man a whaleboat. I am already familiar with Eureka Miniatures (but can't spend the $50 USD they charge). |

Check Etsy. So many 3d folks with resin 3d printers out there and they typically will scale to suit your need. |

I found this STL of a whaling boat + crew. Going by the fashion looks like it could go for the 1890s at the earliest.

Brigade Games has nice rowers. I'm having trouble finding a decent Captain. Long John Silver figures do not look like Abraham Lincoln. link link |

Thank you, gentlemen. I'm actually creating 4 boat crews of 6 men each, so I believe I can combine all your tips into the diversity I'm looking for. |

Having plenty of Pirates, etc, I had an easy time finding Starbuck. Surely you have a Jacobite head with bonnet and tourie somewhere?

For Queequeg, I took a Perry Lord Dunmore's Ethiopian with pike. Fun fact: the actor was a Pole.
But alas! Ahab! Paint his leg white, btw. If you know why, you know.
Go to Hobby Lobby for a nice "sort of in scale" Moby Richard. Music!
