King Neptune Initiation Certificate

This is a certificate I did for an equator crossing ceremony that Steve had onboard the Far Fosna for some of the crew that hadn't been initiated into King Neptune's Court. As it has been such a long standing tradition on boats (although probably not so much now) I wanted to keep the certificate in an old fashioned style. It was a bit of fun putting it together. :)

Old Sailing Ship Sketch

This is a sketch I am working on at the moment for a tattoo for a crusty old sailor (he is actually nice young Mate who works with Steve). I need to bring the detail down a bit more on the bow as it may get a bit confused when it comes to being inked. Background details need to be clarified too but I want to get something other than jewellery on my blog as it has been a while since I put some other sort of artwork up. Not a very big post, but I am working on a digital illustration and amping to get back into it. :)
