Thank you all for your comments!
Regarding the sails for the ship, yes I still use the Quickfuse material. Until i find something else that work as well or costs less, I will probably continue to use it. I pay $9 (less if I can get it on sale) for 3 sheets of material (I know it is more expensive elsewhere). A full set of sails for a 3053, for example, takes 6 sheets. The viking ship sail uses two sheets, so is not that expensive.
For those who do not know, Quickfuse is a fabric material that comes in regular sized sheets and can be printed on. I use an Epson inkjet and get great results. The backside of the material is a heat-activated adhesive. You just run an iron over it and it adheres to any other fabric. I use two sheets of the stuff and adhere them to each other - this gives me the ability to print front and back, as well as giving me a decent thickness and stiffness to the sail. I ope that makes sense.
Oh, and Pastifi, for now there will be no pink (or purple, as my son calls it) barbarian longship - they are the sworn enemies of my Dragon Clan, as well as my Wolf Clan, warriors. Besides, my son's barbarians already have the Shadow Dragon ship. I gave him the choice of a customized longship or galleon, and he chose the bigger ship. Imagine that!
