I was finishing up the Pirate Sloops that I had offered to cut for anyone wishing to have one when I sneezed as I was cutting one of the hulls. This caused my hand to slip and cut a large notch ion the bows of the hull. I put it to the side as I completed the rest of the work. Not wanting to throw away an otherwise OK hull I sat and contemplated what could be done to save the ship. I decided on a narrower shape as that would remove some of the width and, with it, the unwanted notch. What emerged was a sleek narrow hull. In my usual manner I just started cutting foam until I had something that looked likely.
This is what emerged.
I really gotta stop this kind of thing!

ReplyDeleteYour process seems to work wonderfully.
Thank you for your kind words, Accident and Boredom seem to be my Muses.
DeleteI had no intentions on a galleon and have no idea what I will do with it when finished!
