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!

Hi There!
You have just earned yourself an O.D.D.(oibyrd's daily devs) feature 
TODAYS THEME - For the Love of Pirates!
ODDS (oibyrd's daily deviations) are to honor the sometimes overlooked artists of dA that I personally think deserve some exposure and also, to introduce the more popular artists to the new/overlooked deviants. I prefer to showcase ALL artwork that I love (and that includes popular artists with a fair amount of traffic to their work) in order to create a non-biased feature of the talent on dA. Please click the link below to see your work featured and to view other featured artists . If you prefer not to be a featured artist, just send me a note and I will remove you from the list. Cheers! Sandi xoxo

Awww your style makes me feel happy, it reminds me of Puzzle Pirates. REally cool expressions on the Pirates faces.

Sigh. Wish you could read Italian. I've got a story whose characters would perfectly go along with those of yours (smiles)
