Fresh-Up Devon \u2013 From old …<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

I begann drawing more intensively at an age when many people start to become interested in other things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unfortunately, for a long time when drawing, it was more important to me to get the images out of my head and onto paper as quickly as possible than to focus on quality. What is all too clear from the drawings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For some time now, I have been digitally archiving my old work \u2013 there simply isn’t enough space to store all the folders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I was particularly attracted to a series of early ship drawings. They are part of an unrealised precursor project by Quincey Howard. It was about a British privateer fleet that was supposed to wage trade warfare from a secret base in the Caribbean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Devon was the flagship of this fleet. The design still has considerable room for improvement \u2013 a weak point in my work for a long time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the positive side, you can see that I have already started researching:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The masts are already divided and each segment is rigged separately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In accordance with its size and purpose, the ship has only one battery deck and additional guns on the quarterdeck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The figurehead railing is only hinted at, but it points in the right direction. The quarter galleries and transomg are also somewhat special.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I then turned it into a training project for working with vector graphics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I want to see what happens when I edit the drawing using my experience from the last few decades and the clear lines of a vector illustration \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Accompany me on this journey…<\/p>\n\n\n\n
