Tuesday Tinkering…

Wiwohka

Well, I’m still not settled on how I want the placard to appear on our ship, nor have I been terribly impressed with the sign itself… not in the least! I mean, the ship is absolutely stunning, but so far, the images all look like they were crafted by a child! (No offense meant towards all you little budding Picasso’s)

While I attempt to sort through a boatload of images (notice the nautical reference), I’ve something new that I’ve been working on…

Nugget has learned how to bake pizza!

  4. Well…where on the vessel will it be. Traditionally it could be on both sides of the bow, or on the stern quarters. These thing look nice on the transom as well. Lettering has to be easily recognizable from a distance – your font does not make the grade. I also advisse you to soften the ends. Ends, especially on the transom are often ribboned or banner in shape. Rounded ends are common on quarterboards.
    A lot of this stuff is actually traditional, but also functional. hard edges and ends might foul lines, so wounded are better. you cn check out my site for samples ot the sites of any of my competitors. ther is plenty of variation, and some examples are downright sexy……well they are if you are a maritime carver.

    1. I think I’m going to do some searching on Google to look for actual images of ships so I have an idea visually of what I’m aiming for, ya know… thank you so much for the suggestions! I knew you’d be familiar… hugs
