Tom --
I like your ship - the colors are wonderfully cooridnated. Man, though... If
*I* had that many names I'd go by "Cap'n Rose", too. urk.. :)
I have a question, though. How'd you do the black rose logo on the sails?
Silkscreen or something? What fabric did you use for the sails? While I'm
not doing Pirates ATM (I'm getting things in place for some castle stuff) I
want to use my pirate ships but with different "non-pirate" sails. I just
haven't looked around much, yet, to figure out what works best.
Thanks for any suggestions you (or anyone) can make.
