Description
"Farewell an' adieu to you fair Spanish ladies,Farewell an' adieu to you ladies of Spain,
For we've received orders for to sail for old England,
An' hope very shortly to see you again."
~Spanish ladies
-----------
Being Marooned isn't necessarily a bad thing, eh?
Naught especially when you happen to land on a Rum Runner's Storage Island...and happen to have had your guitar swung 'round your back and have it survive the washing ashore...
Of course his is a little bit warped since it was in the water for a bit...still sings like the first day she was made.
I had this idea when listening to Keith Richard's version of "Spanish Ladies" as he was playing Captain Teague Sparrow in Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End.
I liked the image and decided to go with it...
Listening to Bill Frisell's version of "Spanish Ladies", from the album Rogue's Gallery: Pirate Ballads, Sea Song and Chanteys, really sets the tone for this piece.
Link to a short version of it.
Its hauntingly beautiful and I quite like the idea of this poor pirate playing it to himself as he waits for whatever happens to be coming next...like another bottle of rum.

Great detailing! The guitar is wonderful, and I love his posture and expression here--very "slouchy"...as though he's already been well into the rum! lol! Nice tie ins with PotC, as well (the scarf, braided beard, dreads)! I like it!

Not much except play his guitar....but he's lucky enough to know how to get food as well...so aside from the onset of delirium, and insanity, he's fine.

Have you been practicing drawing feet? I mean his aren't perfect, but they are still really good (an improvement from hiding them behind beer cans).

UndeadDeviation In reply to QueenDemonCow [2008-03-12 05:08:11 +0000 UTC]
not really practicing perse...but I do seems to be getting a better grasp on them I suppose.
And yes I quite agree it is a step up from hding them...

"perse" is an adjective meaning "a dark shade of blue or purple."
The phrase you are thinking of is "per se" (spelled with two seperate words).
Just letting you know.

What a pleasant tune! He could certainly use a little turtle friend.

It really is. I've been listening to it non stop for about a day now.
And perhaps a turtle or a crab friend...yes.
But I tried and it just didn't look right...so I left it a little desolate but simple.
