Genuinely Surprised that no one has done the actual pyrate vessels, like the Whydah captured and sailed by "Black Sam" Bellamy and Queen Anne's Revenge (James Thatch's actual ship, not the PotC version) Or any of the other generic vessels of the late 1600's early 1700's, sloops, brigs, schooners, etc.

PS. Wonderful jobs on the ones already made, guys, these vessels give me migraines to draw. I'll stick to the late 1800's to mid 1940's, lol!

I'm surprised no one has done anymore warships from the age of sail. I mean except for a few frigates and the HMS Victory. Would love to see some others like the USS Pennsylvania, and other American ships of the line. Or some British or French ships from the French Revolution and Napoleonic Wars.

No one is stopping you from drawing them yourself :)

I'm sure I speak for many others when I say that the stylistic challenges posed by rigging of the day, and relative paucity of good references, are both daunting.

That's certainly one of greater issues - possibly THE issue.
