Cheeky Actress Posted April 7, 2009 Posted April 7, 2009 Oderlesseye & Joe Pyrat nice work indeed. The very portrait of pyratical perfection! Member of "The Forsaken"
LadyBarbossa Posted April 24, 2009 Posted April 24, 2009 OK.. unfortunately no picture of me wearing the attire.. yet. But... FINALLY, FINALLY, FINALLY I got that bleedin' quilted petticoat done! Took me a bleedin' year and a half off and on to work on it. So... here it is. Mostly handsewn except at the verticle seams of the skirting for reasons of strength but the waistband of it is handsewn completely. The quilted part is all handsewn... the hem, alas, is machine sewn but I may change that. The picture doesn't do it justice. Ye might be able to click on it and enlarge it to get some inkling of the design on the skirting of the petticoat. This is made to match a gown I'm making with it of matching fabric. Alas, I haven't gotten far with it it cause I still don't know whether to make it a Robe a la Francais or a Robe a la Anglaise. Tough, tough decision. ~Lady B Tempt Fate! an' toss 't all t' Hell!"

Kian McBrian Posted April 28, 2009 Posted April 28, 2009 After a little hiatus I am back and with better pictures this time of a mostly completed kit when I attended the New London Pirate Festival. Any tips or advice on the state of my kit would be much appreciated, both good and bad...I can take it (I think lol) Send it to me in a PM :) and without further hesitation..... Kicking back a few pints with friends (by the way, pay no mind to the cheesy name tag ) Standing in front of the judges for the costume contest....LadyBrower took 2nd place, which was impressive given she and I were the only "period correct" pirates in the contest... I'll let her post her own pictures :-P and finally..... Decent picture methinks ;-) 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.

LadyBarbossa Posted April 29, 2009 Posted April 29, 2009 Kian... ye look fabulous, good sir. I think ye look right proper and shan't state more cause nothin' more needs t' be said. None t' worry, no harsh words t' say nor criticism about yo'r attire, again, it's fabulous. Only criticing, is the ones we place upon ourselves. And that from the Captain of whatever Crew we join. Tignor... ye look great as well. Astonishing, my good man. Don't mind those spladerdashers, I think they look fetching. :) Kudos to ye both, gents. Fits in right nice ye do. I pray shall cross paths with either of ye in th' future. And thank ye mighty kindly, Matt. I may wear it... I may not. ~Lady B Tempt Fate! an' toss 't all t' Hell!"

William Brand Posted April 29, 2009 Posted April 29, 2009 Excellent work, Mister Tignor and Mister McBrian. Now bring that smart kit to PIP and weather it well with cannon black, corral dust, Russian Pine sap, cooked bacon and rum. Â Â Â
Capt. Sterling Posted April 29, 2009 Posted April 29, 2009 Is Russian pine sap PC? "I being shot through the left cheek, the bullet striking away great part of my upper jaw, and several teeth which dropt down the deck where I fell... I was forced to write what I would say to prevent the loss of blood, and because of the pain I suffered by speaking."~ Woodes Rogers Crewe of the Archangel http://jcsterlingcptarchang.wix.com/creweofthearchangel# http://creweofthearchangel.wordpress.com/
Cannibal Chrispy Posted April 29, 2009 Posted April 29, 2009 I dunno about russian pine, but there is a lot of australian pine at the fort.

William Brand Posted April 30, 2009 Posted April 30, 2009 Auuuuustralian Pine. Russian didn't look right when I typed it. This is why I need people to shower me with money, so that I don't see two whole years between visits. Â Â Â
Guest Posted April 30, 2009 Posted April 30, 2009 Is Russian pine sap PC? Ahw ... who cares.... not when we can be havin' cooked bacon and rum.
Kian McBrian Posted April 30, 2009 Posted April 30, 2009 Now I just need to get over to twill and see what else I would be needing to make it into an Authentic camp, which is my final goal....again, any suggestions or help would be much appreciated. Even if its simply steering me in the right direction....Fair Winds!! 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.
Guest Posted April 30, 2009 Posted April 30, 2009 Now I just need to get over to twill and see what else I would be needing to make it into an Authentic camp, What time period are you working on? there are a few threads in TWILL about period camping.... (unfortunately some of them get bogged down with discussions of exact documentation of a specific item) so you will read more than you might have been looking for.... Also check out some of the post in the PiP threads.... Experimental Archeology at it's best.....
William Brand Posted April 30, 2009 Posted April 30, 2009 These are just some of the threads Patrick was speaking of...

Kian McBrian Posted April 30, 2009 Posted April 30, 2009 wow, those links are awesome. I plan on perusing alot of them, but my main concern right now is my kit as it stands lol. I know I have most of the stuff, just trying to figure what else I am missing....I believe that may require another thread methinks 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.
