# Drawing a ship.


The final image is not finished as usual but I can't find the 'magic' that brings a picture finally to life. I might just put pirates on it and be done.

I thought this gif might be interesting though.

His gang pick on me from time to time. Still, if they are after me then they are leaving someone else alone.

I saw them in Charlestown a few years back. Nice ships.

# Yeah I was in Charlestown
last summer and had a chat about me crewing ( they know the master of the brigantine we operate for a maritime trust ).
Two factors stopped me, mainly that I was busy but also because they needed me to man the galley full time. Although I fancy my cooking as well above average it can be a lonely job if you piss off the crew with your food ;)
