Well...not all of them, but these three are my top 3, which are Snowe (who was only a pirate for *1* scene...lol), Kika, and Hervey. ^__^ I really wish that Snowe stayed as a pirate. It suited him rather well, and his outfit is hawt, too. The outfits were challenging to me, which was a reason why I chose them, yet they were fun to detail.

Kika is an awesome character. I love her characterization, and she wields two swords~! And Hervey is just too cute. I really wanted to add Sigurd, Dario, and Nalleo in there, but even with these 3, it was hard to get them scanned (part of Snowe's hair got cut off).

I honestly thought this was going to take a lot longer to color...but I had so much fun with it that I finished it in 2 sittings. In total, I think I've spent about 16 hours on it. I'm still practicing with backgrounds...they're supposed to be on a ship. >_< The ropes on the side look very unrealistic. Don't really know how to make them look better.

Ugh...I think I'm sick of listening to music from 'Pirates of the Caribbean'. The music was very inspiring, but after listening to it for about 6 hours straight while doing the picture, I started to get 'yo-ho-ho *thwap*' with Winamp.
