Description I've been wanting to draw junk ships for a while now... and I've also been wanting to draw a pirate battle scene. So I ended up with this ^_^


Here you see Chinese Pirates boarding a Spanish Sloop.


These aren't historically accurate! It was hard looking for references on Chinese pirates. Well, try googling it - see what you get >_<. So, for the most part, I made up their clothes, A lot of guesswork went on the ships as well... I saw some images of junk ships, but they didn't help. I had to work from memory (from trips to Hong Kong, lol).


The lil round monkey and rat was designed by my bro... he doodled them in while I was sketching this out ^_^ They're so cute.


Done similarly to my Legend of Zelda artworks. This time I can finally put it in the Vector category (I couldn't before since there wasn't a 'fanart' section).


[note: Finally, the print version worked ]

Simple amazing style. I can see hints of Wind Waker's style, but with a surprisingly greater amount of complexity. Definite

Oh wow. This looks good. Just looking at it made me imagine what sounds I would be hearing- the waves splashing, the people shouting and swords hitting one another. Remarkable!
