William Brand Posted April 28, 2007 Posted April 28, 2007 Def... shoot us some prelim pics ..I would like to see the roughout work. Seconded.
oderlesseye Posted May 12, 2007 Author Posted May 12, 2007 All the goodies are stowed away now. Now I will be staining and lagg bolting a couple beams to the wall to aid in producing a visual affect of seeing the beach and wot not from the sheltrer of the cove. This is a piliminary picture of what I want. The pirate in the boat will have a Barbossa likeness. The image is adjusted for point of view, horizon line, direction, depth ect. This will have a faux finish effect blend it all together. The boards for the roll up door are already primed and we agreed tonight on the content of the image.. We took alot of other things into account that i will mention later as we progress in color. The final draft should be ready next week prior to mock up on the boards being worked on in his studio. Then finally the artist will begin working it all together in the cove. To help with perspective heres a pre-mural pic so you can see what i need to make room for. Namely my Black Pearl ship that "is'nt" due to copyright LoL. http://www.myspace.com/oderlesseyehttp://www.facebook....esseye?ref=nameHangin at Execution dock awaits. May yer Life be a long and joyous adventure in gettin there!As he was about to face the gallows there, the pirate is said to have tossed a sheaf of papers into the crowd, taunting his audience with these final words: "My treasure to he who can understand."
Boots MacGee Posted May 13, 2007 Posted May 13, 2007 I like the rough draft, can't wait to see it finished. May the winds of fortune sail you May you sail a gentle sea May it always be the other guy who says "this drinks on me" http://www.susquehannarangers.com/

oderlesseye Posted June 3, 2007 Author Posted June 3, 2007 The glass with the etched galleon is now installed above the cove doorway which has just been re-framed. I went to a junk shop and picked up an old chair for the spindles. The owner gave me the chair for free! So this side project was done for about $20.00 Eye was fiddling in photoshop for a preview of the mural in color..It will look something like this.. http://www.myspace.com/oderlesseyehttp://www.facebook....esseye?ref=nameHangin at Execution dock awaits.

King's Pyrate Posted June 12, 2007 Posted June 12, 2007 Oh darn ..Oderlesseye trips the security alarm and makes a run for it... The canon in the background is pointed at the front door fer just such plundering pirates as yerself........arrrrrggggghhhhhh!!!!!
King's Pyrate Posted June 12, 2007 Posted June 12, 2007 Here is just to the left of the canon.......looking for some white wainscot for this wall.
Maggie Crowe Posted June 13, 2007 Posted June 13, 2007 1) You have GOT to be the coolest Grandpa EVER! 2) Where DID you get that cannon? I need one
King's Pyrate Posted June 13, 2007 Posted June 13, 2007 1) You have GOT to be the coolest Grandpa EVER!2) Where DID you get that cannon? I need one I bought this canon from a local fellow who bought it from the Lightner Museum.....it is a wooden replica ( light weight so I can pull it around at book signings)..the museum used to pull it out front each morning to attract tourist. I got it for $80 but it is just what I need. Where I bought mine has several made of concrete....good for static display ...Captain Eye has some nice canon, perhaps he can point ye in the right direction for a good canon. Here is a little better shot of the canon at a book signing in 2005 at the Rockefeller Mansion in Ormond Beach, Florida That be my youngest son with me in the photo..."Silver tonged Patrick, the Wench Chaser"......lol Live Long and Plunder Well KP
