Description
Wanted to try something using the excellent ship models by Jedswindells. Wanted an old world feel of a painting on canvas, so did post work in Photo Paint--canvas and rain filter.

Not only did you achieve that old world feeling, youve have gone one better to me. The piece its self dose what you wanted with the rain and that beautiful water; but your choice of gray blue monotones along with the rain give this the feel and look of a picture that was etched into a piece of whale bone of tooth like the old sailors use to do back in the day. A most stunning piece of art. Hey why dont you try another render useing the pen & Ink or pencel filters in photoplant? Try making it look like one of those prints made from old wood carvings, that might be interesting too.

Sorry, but one crit: The sails are not correct for the weather condition. If a ship was in a storm like this, the captain, if he was experienced, would not have all sails set. This configuration was used primarily if there was little or no wind, so as to keep steerageway on the rudder. He would be worried that the wind would be so strong that if all sails were set like shown, the strain on the masts would be so great that the ship might be dismasted. ("tear the sticks outta her...") Therefore, usually, only the topsails or the middle sails, the Courses, and the fore-and-aft sails (the Driver on the aft Mizzenmast, and the Jibs on the foreward Bowsprit), would be set to give the ship steerageway without straining the masts and rigging. Also, the outer sails, the Stunsails, would not cover two yards. They would be set to hang from one yard down to the next, not as shown. Keep working on it. For research, check this site: www.scrimshawgallery.com. On the site, go to: Online Gallery, then Paintings and Prints. On the left side bar, checkout the paintings of Geoff Hunt(who illustrated all the Patrick O'Brian books), Vickery and Stobart. As well as Monague Dawson and Christopher Blossom. They are some of the best nautical artists alive, priding themselves on their accuracy.
