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: :w00t!: Finally, the print version worked :dance:]

They looked accurate enough. At least they looked asian. XD But I especially like the chinese ship.

Wow, yet another masterpiece :clap: One of those you could stare at forever :D AS for historical accuracy, well.. I wouldn´t notice anyway (unless they´d be wearing Bluejeans or something XD)
Hmm.. that sky and sea look incredibly beautiful. Hats off once again, miss-chibi-action ^o^

Rum is good. XD

I really like your waves. They sorta have that battle-esque (wtf?) feel to them. *cough*
On a serious note, your perspective is excellent and your use of color themes is awesome. :thumbsup: Great job!

Stunning work! You're amazing with Illustrator (**feels jealous**). Perhaps the best about the picture, other than the wonderful humour and the imaginative storytelling, are the monkey and the pikachu like blob!! ^_^
