Description hm.. more like "never to be finished" as opposed to "works in progress", really. Ugh, failure. I'm submitting them anyway because I want to TALK ABOUT THESE MEN xD

When I heard that Ian McShane would be playing Blackbeard in POTC4, I kid you not, I screamed with utter joy. I do love the Pirates movies, they're all in good fun (I adore Jack and Barbossa's dynamic, Geoffrey Rush in general, and POOR COMMODORE NORRINGTON).... but I honestly was a little disappointed they'd decided to continue the series when I first heard about it. I figured they'd probably be milking it, plus I considered Will and Elizabeth to be completely wrapped up.

AND LO AND BEHOLD, Will and Elizabeth won't be in it. SO ESSENTIALLY, it's just going to be THE ADVENTURES OF JACK AND BARBOSSA VERSUS IAN MCSHANE MY FAVOURITEST ACTOR AS THE ONLY PIRATE I WAS EVER HISTORICALLY INTERESTED IN.

Blackbeard, whose real name was Edward Teach, used to braid hemp into his beard and light it before he went in to battle, yep, the moar you know. Hence the picture lol.

OH and for more FYI, Ian McShane is quite seriously one of the finest actors of our time. Check him out: [link] (WARNING: that is an excerpt from Deadwood, therefore it is very rude, and I don't refer to it as "The Great Blowjob Monologue" for no good reason).


... I can't believe I just raved that much about Pirates lawl. Now no one will want to listen to me about HANS LANDA.

That's ok. I hope everything I would rave about him (had I not exceeded my rave-quota) is depicted in his expression. He will always remain one of my utmost favourite characters, and Inglourious Basterds will always remain one of my favourite films. I swear, it gets better every time I watch it.

[link] PPFFFFFFT ALDO AND DONNY'S FACES <3


Okay, I'll shut up now cx




... do portraits of characters still count as portraits? Deviant, your category system never fails to confuse me.

Argh, I suck at reading. That PotC movie sounds like it's gonna be amazing without Will and Liz, no offense to the actors. But seriously. It's gonna be so good. And I watched that clip. Even though it was a little disturbing (not the blowjob but the way he talks to her in general), I really wanna watch Deadwood now.

And yay Hans Landa! He's hilarious.

That's a bingo! Oh, Landa, you are a crazy creepy motherfucker.

That Blackbeard is badass. And scary. The face is so goddamn well done; I like the lighting from the flames.

I do not care that these are works-in-process-that-might-never-be-finished (a feeling I know all too well, lol), these are getting a fav my friend.

Eeeeeeeeee! I absolutely love the lighting. Pirates = <3. Have you ever been on the ride at Disneyland or Disney World?

Ian McShane is the AWESOMENESS. & he played Bobinsky in Coraline... easily the funniest character. xD

(btw, in the AN: *'opposed' or 'in apposition to')

Eeba-ism In reply to sweets-buttons [2010-09-22 05:53:08 +0000 UTC]

... Have I ever been to Disneyland/Disney World would have been the opperative question.. because, no, sadly I have not :c

He DID play Bobinsky. Did you know that he's 68?! Sorry lol.. that piece of info blew my mind when I found out.. because he does not look 68.

(I do not know what you're brackets are referring to.. :c /stupid)

Gasp gasp gasp! You haven't? I practically live in Disneyland, hurrhurr. I have a year round pass and everything.. 'cause I'm a loser. (yay for losers!)

68? Srsbsns? He looks waay younger. Wow. ....like, wow.

(To the Author's Note In the first line you say the phrase "as apposed to." I'm pretty sure it's either "as opposed to" or "in apposition to," depending on which you prefer. /anal...ness)

I think I'm about one of the only people who is just plain excited for PotC4, whether it would have Will and Liz in it too, but this is pretty much the shit I grew up on. Making it full of badassery and real pirates makes me happy in the face meat.

Meanwhile, Hans Landa, you're just ready to eat shit and make everybody know you're the best at doing it, ain'cha. Goddamn.

Have I mentioned lately that I am insanely jealous of you and your ability to, um, everything? I can't even English I'm so jealous.

Eeba-ism In reply to LilDemonChild [2010-09-22 05:55:14 +0000 UTC]

I'd see that movie irrespective of Will, Elizabeth and Ian McShane, too xD I love them.. Pirates FTW.

Yep. I'd be willing to pay a lot more than just $10 for a movie ticket to see Ian McShane as a pirate. It's pretty much my ultimate fantasy xD

I saw some photos of the ship they've built for Blackbeard.. and I dig its colour scheme SO HARD. From what I saw a lot of it is themed around his flag, too.. which pleases me no end, seeing as he had definitely had one of the coolest pirate flags

BINGO, how funnn!

THAT WAS EXACTLY MY THINKING WHEN I READ THE CASTING. It's the greatest piece of casting since.. since... um.. THAT GUY WHO PLAYED PERCY IN THE GREEN MILE.

lol. Sorry. The cast of the Green Mile has always been my benchmark of great casting. Yup xD

ILU so much for drawing this, especially Blackbeard augh <3. I love him so, so, so much. SINCE I WAS A WEE LAD. XD You did SO well on it. I love his expression, it's such a "YOU WANT SOMMA DIS YOU CANT HANDLE DIS SHIT" face. You are like, my hero forever. <333 And now that I know that about 4 I want to see it soooooooo bad ugh.

Ffff Barbossa is like... pretty much my top fictional pirate VERY closely followed by Jack (of course XD), and Blackbeard is my favorite real pirate, followed Morgan, Bartholomew and Kidd (Black Bart has always amused me because of his love of tea instead of rum).

Dammit, I just watched Pirates, woman! Don't make me do it again! XDD

Eeba-ism In reply to BarricadePAE [2010-09-22 06:34:43 +0000 UTC]

I can never decide if I love Jack or Barbossa more xD ... so I've just settled for loving their dynamic, because really they're at their most entertaining when they're arguing

I really enjoyed reading about the Chinese pirates when I was younger c: .. and I think I remember reading about a pirate who loved tea!!

You should watch Pirates again xD

Omg yes! They're wonderfully entertaining when they're arguing (it's why I love Tulio and Miguel from Road to El Dorado so much).

Well I will then! Ha! XDD

That blackbeard portrait is the badassness beyond all badassness.
Apparently according to my spellcheck 'badassness' isn't a word... Stupid spellcheck

Seriously though, you do portraits fantastically... you should do more! Or just more art in general. I always am so happy when I see your art pop up in my messages

I second that motion about me doing more art in general xD There's been too little of it lately.

My spellcheck doesn't like "badassness" either. Well, spellcheck, you can't always be right.
