Calling all Pirates!

  • Mood: Pirate
Chance to get a free drawing!

Wheres all the rum gone?

Thats me free from uni, forever! I get my results on the 20th may and then graduate officially in june. So, to fill in my long, spare hours (how i have longed for free time!)
I'm planning on restarting my PyRats comic (which never really went past a few sketches).
However, i'm in need of boat names: Pirate ships, Navy ships, Merchant ships - lots and lots of names!
So i'd like people to help with a few ideas, and the person who comes up with the best boatname by the end of the month can have a drawing of thier character/anthro/favourite animal/whatever (and have it posted out if they're happy to help with postage!)
Which reminds me, i'm open for commissions, they're not expensive - £6 inc postage and packaging and all via paypal.

Dont forget my other account :iconthemagpiesnest:

How about the Sea Rat? Or the fishermans fiend? The Black Plague...Yersinia pestis...

A bit of applied maths: If you integrate a stitch with respect to wool, you get a row, integrate again, you get a pattern.

You've been studying too hard...!
Cool names though, thanks!

Sadly it comes naturally these days...
If I think of any more names I'll drop you a comment/note. Random question, what kind of fish would rats/mice fish for? Naming a boat after/about those species of fish would do. Such as...The Merciful Minnow...Mirrored Minnow...you know what I mean...
Or a predator, like the Piercing Pike...or even ';Pike' for a slightly more menacing air, so notorious it doesn't even need a description...

I like your thinking! Sadly, i dont think they would fish for things much bigger than an anchovy, unless it was specialised fishing ships (ie whaling ships to them could pull in a tuna) or by making traps at river mouths (salmon).
Pikes a freshwater fish, but i do like the idea of picking predatory fish...
