This is the current list of WF Ship names. Obviously I should have posted this before the previous post, but I'm an idiot.

WF Mandela - first ship built in South Africa
WF Rockwell - named for illustrator Norman Rockwell
WF Rackham - named for illustrator Arthur Rackham
WF Tenniel - named for illustrator John Tenniel
WF McQuarrie - named for concept artist Ralph McQuarrie
WF Blake - named for illustrator Quentin Blake
WF Moebius - named for comic artist and concept artist Jean Giraud, whose pen name was Moebius
WF Mead - named for concept artist and futurist Syd Mead
WF Wyeth - named for artist N.C. Wyeth
WF Heath - named for illustrator Matt Heath (part of an art swap so I named the ship after him).

All these names are canon. You can see when I started the project I was mainly thinking of illustrators that I was influenced by. As I create more ships I need to broaden the pool of names. Particularly absent are names of non-western artists.

And I'm lucky enough to own the original drawing for WF Rockwell
