What Is GhostCrew™?


Bring Your Model to Life — Without Taking the Spotlight Away From It.

GhostCrew™ is an innovative line of miniature crew figures from HerbsFigures, designed to add life, realism, and a true sense of scale to your model without distracting from the craftsmanship and detail you’ve worked so hard to achieve.

Traditional painted figures naturally draw attention with their colors and details. GhostCrew™ takes a different approach.

Produced in translucent resin, GhostCrew™ figures provide the presence, proportions, and activities of a working crew while allowing the model itself to remain the center of attention.

The crew is there, but the model remains the star.

Imagine a sailing ship with its captain commanding the deck, sailors handling the rigging, gun crews manning their cannons, a helmsman at the wheel, a cook preparing meals, or Marines standing guard with their rifles. Each figure adds purpose, activity, and historical context without overwhelming the model with color.

No Painting Required — Save Hours of Work!

Let’s face it. Painting miniature figures can be one of the most tedious and frustrating parts of model building, particularly at smaller scales.

Painting tiny faces, uniforms, buttons, belts, and equipment requires a steady hand, specialized brushes, magnification, patience, and countless hours of work.

With GhostCrew™, you can skip all of that!

Building in 1:64, 1:76, 1:96, 1:100, or even 1:120 scale?

No problem!

GhostCrew™ eliminates the need to paint dozens, or even hundreds, of tiny crew members. Simply prepare and position your figures on your model, and you’re ready to go.

Think of the hours saved, the frustration avoided, and the freedom to spend more time doing what you really enjoy — building your model.

Whether you’re adding six sailors to a fishing vessel or a hundred crew members to a historic warship, GhostCrew™ offers a practical, attractive alternative to traditional painted figures.

A Ghostly Crew From Another Era

GhostCrew™ also offers something unique: the appearance of a ghostly crew from the past.

The translucent figures can suggest the spirits of sailors who once walked the decks, worked the guns, handled the sails, and commanded these magnificent vessels.

It’s a subtle way to bring history to life while preserving the visual beauty of your model.

One Figure — Two Possibilities

The beauty of GhostCrew™ is its versatility.
  • Leave Them Translucent: Enjoy the ghostlike appearance, establish scale, and bring activity to your model without painting a single figure.
  • Paint Them Traditionally: Prefer a fully detailed, colorful crew? GhostCrew™ figures can be primed and painted just like conventional resin miniatures.

The choice is entirely yours.

Designed for Model Builders


GhostCrew™ figures are designed with attention to scale, historical accuracy, natural poses, and the activities appropriate to the vessels they represent.

Whether you’re building a historic warship, fishing vessel, merchant ship, or working boat, GhostCrew™ helps transform an otherwise empty model into a scene that tells a story.

No Painting. No Frustration. Just Add Crew.
