someone gets it

#1 Post by Philbob »

About crediting the site and the artist when they use our art.

other then that this is a good 5 part read, and the blog itself is pretty good.

Well, not quite. He forgot to credit WhyMe when he modified his drawing.

yes but he mentions shipbucket smack dab in the middle of the article.

besides his sites not about shipbucket but a sensible future for the military of the UK.

Huh, interesting :)
Of course crediting is not up to ShipBucket standards but yet again he's not posting it on ShipBucket, so as long as I'm mentioned in the same article as the original artist I'm OK with this.

I did a little more digging on the X-Bow thing, and found what appears to be an image, from Ulstein, showing an X-Bow LSD! Described as being for 'search and rescue' but I think of interest for more belligerent applications too.

Tempted to try a sketch:

Would be interested to see that. Especially after Thiel's and my attempts at them.

It's the first SB ship I drew and knowing what I do now there's quite a few things I would do differently. It is, of course, entirely fictional.

My take on Thiel's concept. Not done much with it for ages...
