# Privateer
Sketch of a Ketch, decided the other week to draw a privateer after hearing 'Barrett's Privateers' by Stan Rogers
After listening to the song again, it was at once apparent that the vessel in question was a sloop, not a gaff-rigged ketch. Still going to finish it though



The image is about A4 and will have the hull as well, just wanted to show someone before I carried on with it

# If you like. Depends what the finshed version looks like.
Do two, one coloured and one not. The advantages of digital.
:D

# my mouse is 7 years old

# Depends on size, really.
I got a refurbished one straight from Wacom for a good price. Have a gander at their site in the used section.

# I presonally wouldn't bother with anything over the A5 sized ones.
The large ones are just too unwieldy and unnatural to use.

Nice & quick with a shallow draught for pissing off the Excise boys by fucking off up inlets and suchlike.

Good call.
