Kenchington Posted Tuesday at 11:57 AM #63 Posted Tuesday at 11:57 AM Fascinating to see a 3-dimensional interpretation of one of these ships! It's one thing to re-draw ancient vase images in 2D but quite another reproduce a miniature in (approximately) the original materials.

shadowcaster Posted 5 hours ago Author #65 Posted 5 hours ago (edited) I made one oar for test. I don't like the way it looks. What do you think? Edited 5 hours ago by shadowcaster ccoyle 1
Kenchington Posted 4 hours ago #66 Posted 4 hours ago 1 hour ago, shadowcaster said: What do you think? It does look a bit lifeless, while the link between blade and shaft looks weak, for something that has to transfer the oarsman's pull. The vase images present some interesting blade shapes, probably stylized but maybe something to work with in developing a shape. Otherwise, oars always look better with the shaft, loom and handle suitably tapered. But that's a lot of work with so many to make!
