<![CDATA[So....... I'm making me a 3D modeled Ship's Sign ;-)]]>

I was attempting to wait till the artwork book came out for more reference material...but being prop maker who likes screen accuracy anyway and since I can get my own screen caps now! The wait is over ;-) I got a slew of screen caps and have started the process...for those that might be interested in following the build :-D

The Inspiration...

alt text
A little perspective tweaking...that inset image was from a preview page from the upcoming art book which of course I have pre-ordered.

alt text
The start of vector tracing...

And so it begins!

@Premous This will give you an idea of what I was talking about.

@lizalaroo No! Thanks for the pic. Brava...as usual! :-)

Highly recommend the art book. I got it in hardcover and Kindle so was able to read it on the plane and get my next project laid out...mentally :-)

The first darn day Sea of Thieves was released I left for a 9 day vacation! I was able to squeeze in one short voyage and secure my Day One Eyepatch before heading to the airport! I just drug back in the door...not sure if I should unpack or set sail! Awww...who am I kidding :-D

@specialadvisor haven’t recieved it yet but have found a few other sources for some excellent props. Can’t wait to see what you have in mind!
Did you see my ships wheel finished?

@lizalaroo ...I’m en route back from a voyage and reading the Art of Sea of Thieves! Have you seen it yet? It’s a veritable treasure horde of prop references...already planning my next prop. Highly recommended!

I'm guessing this is the Black Witch? The aforementioned Ships Sign found on a vessel spawn island from yesterday.

Pretty sure it was on this island...

@stacky-a funny you should say that. I have been taking screen shots of every new Tavern Sign I run across which is not many so far...to date I've seen the George & Kraken and Drowned Rat and that's about all...till about 10 minutes ago when I first saw "The Unicorn."

That reminds me, yesterday I saw the first Ship's Sign with an actual name. Was on a wreck where I spawned. I'll post the screen cap of it. Was interesting.

While I have actually 'played' the game...I get as much if not more fun exploring and taking screenshots for new projects. I just keep a weather eye on the horizon and give Galleons a wide berth...now if I see a sloop I'll shout an ahoy...but usually keep on sailing :-D

@specialadvisor Awesome! They look great! You should do one for each of the taverns that exist now in the world. (Kinda like collecting momentos of your travels haha)

I didn't get any painting in on the Ship's Sign yesterday...might be the 11 other pieces I'm currently working on ;-)

A successful test print! Had to tinker the text a lot for printability and increase the size to 5 inches wide. Now for cleanup and some paint.

@IbyRonCola ...just took a look at a few tavern signs and I think you hit spot on with Windlass ;-) Thanks for that! Still going to try Pieces of Eight as well...
