Description Decided to revisit an old character to practice some painting styles. I'm pretty happy with the results, and the more dramatic lighting.
He's the first mate on a ship, a short-tempered man with little respect for anyone... As for the demon monkey behind him, I'm thinking that was his insignia during his younger outlaw days...

I'm hoping the colors look okay, since I started this on one pc and finished it with my lapatop...

Love the look of "just try me" on his face, he looks like a character to be reckoned with, despite his 'stature' and arrogant facial expression. Awesome! He looks mean. Very mean. XD

Cool dude! Although he may be a bit too soft, rendering-wise?

I feel the strokes are a touch too smudgy, but that may be just me.

'I was young and wild, a mean little bastard in those days. Now I'm old, and the MEANEST BASTARD YOU WILL EVER MEET. Now get off the deck before I put a boot through your head.'

He really is a wonderfully evil looking man.

Brilliant character! You can really see the years the sea has worn onto his face; even before I noticed the monkey skull emblem in the background I thought he was a pirate/seafarer of some sort.
