WTF!!? Where do you find this stuff Wayne? That is perhaps the most awesome statue I've ever seen.

Just tell them they need to save to a legacy format. I'm sticking with CS2. I can clone "uncle Bob" out of photos just fine with it.

Wow! Lots of input over night. Thanks for posting your thoughts. I should mention that I do know how to sail BTW. My dad taught me when I was just a pup.(Sunfish built in a basement) I think Gino said it best... something about cub scouts and detail. The budget for this doesn't allow much...

That's got a real Steely Dan feel to it Joe.

That looks great Bob. I may be able to use a pill too. I shall ponder it sommore.

Yeah... that sounds like me! I meant no disrespect to old goat. ( I think he gets that) BTW... I have no doubt the forestay in the image is indeed straight but the sail in the image is curved because of the angle of the photographer to the boat when he took the picture. Sometimes knowing that...

Now that sounds like a good deal old goat. I'll see if she CAN find out anything...

Will do Marlene. I think the O will be alright because the sails and mast will be 3D so I think the O will be visible from the sides. I'm going to mess with a boat a bit more.

Thanks Bill. Love the stars. I have a mold for making scallop shells that I might use for this project too.

Easy there big fella. With your encouragement I drew up this version. Better?

Almost always.

Also... ask 90% of sailors to draw a sailboat and you'll get something like this. I'm not too worried about being ridiculed.

Here. Note the curved jib. I'll give you the main but I have no trouble finding curved jibs. This is for a cottage so I think it will be fine. Thanks for your help though.

Here's the final with Optima. I left the sails with curved lines because it's prettier. I'll dick around with the kerning a bit but I'm happy with it. Thanks for the input.

Discussion of anything not related to signmaking. Humor is okay but PLEASE, no profanity, items in bad taste, religious or political topics.

Nice

Thanks Bob. I looked on google at sailboat pictures till my eyes glazed over. Decided to just wing it with something I could carve easy. I'm going to do the water with some Magic Sculpt I think. I want it to spill over the outline of the oval in the front a bit. Should look cool.

Here is a layout for a carved sign for a cottage. The sign is a gift for a boyfriend of the client. The boyfriend has a "40 foot sailboat". Is my crude depiction close enough to a sailboat? I mean are the sails totally wrong? The client doesn't know any more than I do and I can't ask the...

Hire Colin. He does logos for $495. (Sorry for reviving on old post)
