Here is the Lady of Avenel in aquatint.
Here is the hard ground, before the aquatint went on:
To help with the aquatint, I made a small test plate. It seemed a pity to leave it blank, so I put some sea life:
Lady of Avenel is an 102ft brigantine square rigger. I sailed on her for the swimming expeditions in the Hebrides in 2017. This is why the sea life is relevant, and realistic. Especially the jellyfish.
I drew the Lady of Avenel in Heybridge basin, see this post:
