"shipping" is stupid and I dislike people who do it

Border Reiver:
Jeph - First, I'd like to say that your intial attempts at doing plaid/tartan are OK, especially with getting the vertical and horizontal lines (can't remember the technical term) to follow the flow of the body. As you're doing it now it looks more like a shirt with horizontal and vertical stripes because the lines are all the same colour throughout

As a person who paints plaids on toy soldiers I know how difficult it can be to get plaids right.  Is there a way that you can blend the two colours of the plaid together for the parts of the vertical and horizontal lines except where the lines cross?  In painting you can do this by blending paints or by using really thinned paints, but something tells me that isn't an option here.

I didn't know it was a 'thing' but after reading this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shipping_(fandom) kind of have to agree with our gallant host, there.

I did learn a new meaning of that word though, so it wasn't a complete loss.

Warp and weft (pronounced "woof").  the warp are the vertical fixed threads on the loom,the weft are the woven ones that run horizontal.  Alternating the colors in a consistant pattern in the same way for both warp and weft causes plaids - the colors are most intense where they agree, and have an in-between muting where they don't.  

As any plaid user knows all too well.  

I have now proven that I've been to too waaaaay too many "sheep-to-shawl" competitions...

Actually, one was probably too many!
