The Mourning Dove: a toy boat

Hi, Iโ€™m Jae3ird. My mom is @Rlynn. This is my boat, I made it out of foam, kite cloth, and polymer clay. I tested it, it floats, the sails and anchor work.

Your boat is lovely. And Iโ€™m not saying that because Iโ€™m your mom. Nice job.

Very cool that you included an anchor :slight_smile:
What did you use for the tiny black rivets?

โ€œJay-Birdโ€? My @Pigeon had to translate the cool-speech for me :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:. Yay, the birds!

This is quite nifty, I especially like the hot/warm colours against the black & silver. The dove skull mast head is neat-o!

So many details! Nice crows nest or mast cap for the sailors to stand on for lookout duties - and a wheel to steer her! Love the imagination in this. All hands to raise anchor & set the topsโ€™l, weโ€™re headed out to sea!

Very cool. Love all the details, the name, and the fact it actually floats. It looks like a ship in a fantasy book.
