So I was a approached by a member of my ship club to build him a submarine in a bottle. He was a sailor on the US Bonefish. He didn't want a regular submarine though. He wanted just the pariscope sticking out with a big eye looking out. Here's what I came up with.
Has anyone else do e a whimsical bottle and what ideas have you had. Here's a few I've talked about with people.
Ghost ship in a bottle - bottle with just the sea. The ghost ship is invisable.
Ship in fog - Bottle full of cotton balls.
Ship wreck - For when you bottling efforts go horibly wrong.
Ship trying to get out of bottle - this one's more involved but I thought might be fun. A ship firing broadside into the side of the bottle with cracks apearing in the glass and water spilling out onto the stand.
Show off you whimsical bottles and tell us about your ideas.
