Description "What's devious is what's necessary to make an honest living in these days of corruption and bad business ethics!"

Some time ago, I drew a human version of Captain Star, so here's one of Captain Zero. One can only guess what dastardly scheme he's planning next to get one step ahead of the Captain Star and his fleet.

@TailsandPercy105: I disagree entirely. Does he need something that makes him look like a damned pirate sterotype? Does he need one to make him look like a cliche villain? Eyepatches are overused, dearheart. Captain Zero doesn't need that shizzle, he's awesome enough

Zero is the type of man to keep both his eyes - he wasn't stupid enough to lose one to foolish bravado. He's Captain Star's lifetime, longterm rival. He's smart, he's cold, he's calculating, he's a greedy son of a bitch who stops at nothing to get his way - case in point, the first episode of TUGS, "Sunshine". He willingly let Zorran do whatever it took for that contract, god damn the consequences; and for the most part, it looked like he almost yanked that rug out from under Captain Star.

He's flawed in his mannerisms, and in this pic, you can feel that annoyance radiating off of him. He's pissed at something, whether it be the photographer (artist), his tugs, Star and his Fleet, Johnny Cuba or some unrelated matter. He oozes personality, and is a goddamned wicked villain if you give him enough rope.

Love your take on him, Dan. Absolutely love it. You stayed well away from the tired cliches and brought forth the real character <3

An eyepatch could have given Captain Zero more character.
