Beautiful render. Nice glow effect.

thanks so much

Excellent character, great name, super awesome swashbuckling wardrobe, extremely cool set, and sensational lighting! Could I get all that out in one actual breath? It's close. My tongue ties on swashbuckling wardrobe. Try it. LOL. Beautiful view too! Guess what? I have a dagger almost identical to his. Except instead of the ball on top? Mine has a skull. The bummer? It's purely decorative. Fantastic stuff, Phantom!

swashbuckling, hmm, I hadn't thought about it like that. But I see it now that you mention it. And that fits. It was just called Texture Challenge 50. Sanbie used to create free clothing and challenge others to make textures for them. Swashbuckling wardrobe is a bit of a tongue twister. It's also a finger twister. I have to slow down typing every time I type it. The skull would be a nice touch. I guess decorative is better than nothing.

Whew, I hit send on that last post and got an error. I was able to hit the back button, and the text was still there, so I could salvage the post.

Oh I hate when that happens.

Has he been created specifically to be included in a story?

No, it was just something I was inspired to do. Though now that he's been created, I might make use of him if I need him. If I do, I'll need to fix his beard. It doesn't quite fit his chin, but it's hard to tell from this angle.

That's excellent. Nice to have a roster of extras available too.

I also got a merchant vibe from him. Like the guy who was in charge of the East India Company in Pirates of The Caribbean 2. I just imagine that full moon over the water. And I'm really not a water person either. I recall you doing some phenomenal sailing ship scenes.

He could be a merchant too. I'll find a place for him, maybe a few. Maybe I'll do one with him on a ship.

He has some power to use in case things don't go with his side. Well done with moon in his back.

That he does, just enough to cause trouble. thanks
