Tar Bucket Bill Posted March 7, 2007 Posted March 7, 2007 This is the flag I designed for our crew almost 2 years ago and was approved by the captain for our shippe "Carrion" last year. The Latin "CRUOR ET NEX" means "blood and death" but in the most bloody, violent and graphic of meanings. Our captain [Graves] mentioned that the scroll reminded him of tentacles, which was unintentional. But he liked it more because of that fact. The captain painted a version of it, but I only have a REALLY fuzzy image of it. Not very clear. It is my intention to some day sew it, and use separate pieces of cloth, stitching and paint to detail it as in the image I posted. Tar Bucket Bill

A fine flag indeed.
Mary Diamond Posted March 8, 2007 Posted March 8, 2007 Agreed, William, a very fine flag, to be sure! Beautiful in its simplicity, an image that will carry well for long distances. Well done, Tar Bucket! Oooh, shiny!
Tar Bucket Bill Posted March 8, 2007 Posted March 8, 2007 Thank you both very much for the kind comments. It was fun to do, but took me a while and many other similar designs before this one just "clicked" with me. I looked at old engravings and sculptures and such as inspiration so that it would hopefully look more like a design of the 1700s. If I could just now find some wool bunting that would be great. I have no idea where to find it though. I might just have to use linen instead. Tar Bucket Bill

Hester Posted May 24, 2007 Posted May 24, 2007 I have the following commercially-produced flag: ... which I'm only brave enough to fly on Hallowe'en, lest my house be mistaken for a biker hangout. Does anyone know where this design comes from? It looks quite modern in its styling. Is it perhaps associated with a sports team?
Patrick Hand Posted May 30, 2007 Posted May 30, 2007 I liked the "Rude Skull" flag I was using..... but I gave the design to a friend.... SO I needed to design a new flag...... Or maybe I'll just use it as my signature.....

Patrick Hand Posted June 4, 2007 Posted June 4, 2007 the bar on the wenches chest doesn't quite match the motto, Yah... but it's a classic bit from the early days of porn...... pluss it's more titillating that way.....
HildeKitten Posted June 4, 2007 Posted June 4, 2007 I recently finished one of two flags for myself. I call this one the crossed pistols. Now I need to recreate it on a piece of weathered canvas about 8 feet by 12 feet for my wall. Aye. I'm planning a big cuss of a flag. Wow, that's a really cool flag!
