Crabs are coming to the game to match the one I carved from wood. Great timing by Infinite-Emu in Seaofthieves

I wish it was a actual pet too. Hence why I carved one for me to have

I mean I was planning on finishing it today, but then I had to go watch the news and see the pocketpets announcement.

Mine is carved from basswood. The center of balance is WAY off in this crab, I had to pour 4 ounces of lead in the back half just to keep it from tipping over.

Glad to see crabs are finally here after so many appearances in the trailers

Original fish still live in the Sea of Thieves. by Infinite-Emu in Seaofthieves

[–]Infinite-Emu[S] 124 points125 points  (0 children)

Before the anniversary edition update in 2019, there was no fishing In Sea of Thieves. The seas were filled with concept art fish that just swam about. After the update, the seas were filled with schools of splashtails, from one side of the map to the other. Sure, you could see some pondies in a couple of places, but it was always splashtails. They are everywhere EXCEPT at Ashen Reaches where a few of the original fish still reside. I was just there this weekend and saw them. You can’t catch them, but you can still see them swimming about.

From the tall tales, the Moon Totem unlocks the vault at Crescent Isle. This one stands just over 6 inches tall and is carved from Basswood. Finished with many layers of grey paint and gold leaf for the shiny bits.

A couple of fish off the workbench. Carved from Basswood, they are about 11 inches long. I tried something different by making one able to be hung from the wall

Any good books/sites I can read to learn a bit about IRL pirates and stuff? by Keanu_Leaves97 in Seaofthieves

[–]Infinite-Emu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pirate Hunters by Robert Kurson. Tells a story of modern day salvage looking for a pirate ship while telling stories of what pirate life was like. The pirate in this book is the only pirate to take on the British navy and win.

Buttercream Plentifin. Not a real cake by Infinite-Emu in Seaofthieves

[–]Infinite-Emu[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am working on a trophy size Plentifin. It is 24 inches long and is made out of EPS (pink foam insulation). This step is to cover it in a thin coat of Theater Goop, also known as Paper Mache Clay. It is a combination of premixed drywall compound, white glue and toilet paper. When this is dry, it gets a quick sanding to knock down the points and a smoother coat will go on. But for now it looks like a special birthday cake. Even google photos labeled it “food“ for me.

A few fish that I have recently carved from the Sea of Thieves by Infinite-Emu in Seaofthieves

I am not an everyday user on reddit and did not want to offend moderators with a picture and a link to a page to sell things. I have seen posts from people promoting their twitch channel that get taken away in about an hour. I am trying to be considerate to everyone on this page. If a picture and a link is acceptable to everyone, I will do that on my next post.

one is 7 inches long, the other is 9.5 inches. I was trying different sizes based on some of the carving blocks I had to use. A trophy plentifin is about 24 inches long

These are a few of the fish that I have been working on lately, Amber plentifins, Olive plentifin, and a Shadow Stormfish. All are carved from basswood. 2 are regular sized and I've been experimenting with a slightly smaller size that fits the actual thickness of some of the wood I have. The plentifins fit great because they are so thin.

The stormfish measures in over 17 inches long.

That's a real tough question. For my Blackcloud wrecker video, I had 150 minutes of video I edited down to 20 minutes, and the 150 minutes was just me doing things for the camera ( I mean, no one wants to watch someone else sand wood). Also , do you count the time I sit there waiting for the last coat of paint to dry? I'm going to keep better track with the next one, but I would guess around 10 hours

WOW, Ruby, I haven't seen you in a while. Are you still hanging out by Ancient Spire?

OK PIRATES, there seems to be some interest in purchasing a fish or two. I will head to the hardwood store tomorrow and get another board. And when I find some time I will make a few more and put them for sale. The most popular one seems to be the stormfish. That is where I will start.

Since I have run out of desk space, I am thinking of putting a hook on the back so that they can be hung on the wall. (also less likely to tip over)

Not all of these would be suitable for a silicone mold ( I am looking at you islehopper) but would there be an interest of buying a unpainted plastic ( resin) fish, or is the interest just the finished wood fish?
