| Concept inspiration from my,"Art of the Return of the king" book. |
With being so busy at work on the Neverwinter game, I decided not to run an "official" game at the upcoming Pacificon/ Conquest Convention in September. Instead, I'm helping support some friends and their games.
My friend Jeff G. is running a huge Lord of the Rings game, and needed some help with his "Black ships". So, looking in my reference books, I had him over one evening to see what we could knock out.
 |
| Another concept. I took the shield and sail patterns from this one. |
The ships are to be used in the background of the game, more scenery than "hero" model. Here's what we came up with.
 |
| The ship bases were Old Glory, I believe |
 |
| the gunwales are matt board, wood. Sails and flags are paper and tracing paper. |
 |
| First time I used tracing paper for the flags. They have a nice "thin" feel. Happy accidents! |
 |
| Once painted, these guys should look pretty ominous! |
With limited time, my goal was to really play up the sillouette of these bad boys. I'll endeavor to get snaps of these in game.
