Captain Midnight Posted December 26, 2008 Posted December 26, 2008 The flag of Captain Jonah Micagie Greene (Captain Midnight). The final version of my flag. I have had two others before this one, that were not quite historical looking enough for me, so I came up with this design that I am finally happy and content with. It's a "done deal" now, as I have also stitched the real-life version in fabric. The design is all stitched to the background on both sides of the flag. Captain Midnight's Flag Real Life Version "Now then, me bullies! Would you rather do the gallows dance, and hang in chains 'til the crows pluck your eyes from your rotten skulls? Or would you feel the roll of a stout ship beneath your feet again?" ---Captain William Kidd--- (1945)
Kian McBrian Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 Here is a pic of my crew's flag in my signature (minus the name and the green field. I actually want to pick some peoples minds on ideas and where is a good place to get a great price on getting this done. Trying to keep this on the hush hush so I can surprise my crew with it. I am debating on keeping the original blue and orange, or go with a simple black and white. Also again if any of ya have an idea of a good place to get this done it would be very much appreciated (would love to get it done before LI Pirate Fest). Half Moon Marauders Irish Diplomacy... is the ability to tell a man to go to hell so that he looks forward to making the trip.

LadyBrower Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 Doesn't it look like you could just crawl into his skull with a comfy blanky and look out dreamily out to sea from the star that's been carved from his forehead? Plus, if anyone tried to bother, it can shoot 'em without leaving the comfy spot... =) Cook and Seamstress to the Half Moon Marauders Lady Brower's Treasures, Clothing and other treasures Hell Hath No Fury like the Wrath of a Woman...

Tartan Jack Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 Too many flags, too little time spent actually sewing them . . . I will use these two: One of my favorites from history- I like how the crossed bones imitate the Scot saltire on this one: (Plus my lazy-rump doesn't have to actually sew them up! OK, so they are poly-something, cheap, and thin . . . ) One of the ones I want to make sooner than later is: - A blue/white Scot Saltire with a PC skull emblazoned on the center. --- If I get smart and finish all my needed projects, I'll be bringing that one to Lockhouse in July to start/finish. Plus, I have several stretches of weight wool in black/dark navy. I just need to decide what to do and how. - Some will be the sewn and cut-out style - Some will be straight-out painted (using acrylic art paint) - At least one will be a solid black/navy - A tartan one with a winged hourglass -- That will be a LARGE one, using some cotton black with a small red and yellow sett. - One in Wallace tartan, with an arm and sword (like in the Wallace clan crest). --- Based on the material at-hand, that one will be a heavy cotton and be 2 x 3 and will be used at car shows and Scottish Games. - One on green with arm with dagger (ala Gunn clan crest) -John "Tartan Jack" Wages, of South Carolina
Captain Robert Darksoul Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 The banner is Welsh for No Pain No Date it just looked interesting written in Welsh The name of the ship is The DeSade I know but I am not a 100% PC pirate more of a do it my way type lol

Tall Paul Posted June 19, 2009 Posted June 19, 2009 I suppose this one qualifies. The Logo of the UK Pirate Brotherhood. I came up with this when it struck me that the space in the pre 1801 Union Jack that would eventually be occupied by the St Patrick's cross, could be filled with cross-bones. Then I prettied it up for the web forum BTW, Although the site is geared up for British pirate enthusiasts, and is perhaps the poor English cousin to this site, I am more than happy to welcome input from anybody who has something to say.

Daniel Posted March 23, 2010 Posted March 23, 2010 William Red Wake is unquestionably the king of creating magnificent Jolly Rogers. Indeed, the only thing that could possibly be said against his work is that it is better than most pirates armed with just a needle, thread, and dyed cloth could possibly have managed. My own avatar, the flag of Maureen MacLinden and her crew, the Cutlass' Daughters, obviously suffers in comparison: here's the close-up.

Captain McCool Posted March 24, 2010 Posted March 24, 2010 (edited) Here's mine. The Pirates of Ill Repute. Landlocked pirates we be, sailin' the high plains! I favor a simple, traditional style flag, but with a fun Colorado twist. It's been referred to as our "Jolly Bison." And below, the "Brethren of the Plains" banner I created. The Brethren of the Plains is a loose association of landlocked buccaneers I'm trying to assemble from the crews of various pirate groups throughout Colorado, the Rockies, and the Great Plains.
