Description
Captain Jack Black
by Tim Barnett
We had a family vacation recently to Walt Disney World where my son fell in love with anything "
pirate" and at the same time 'The Pirates of the Caribbean' was released on DVD. From running
around the house dressed in his "pirate garb", to getting me and the dog to be his trusty and loyal crew, everything these days is about pirates. This is a pirate captain that my son and I created for storytime. I get the proverbial "Tell me a story" so Capt. Jack materialized as our pirate of merit. Many tales of pirate gold and sunken treasures have been recounted of late and since my son's birthday is a couple of weeks away (he'll be five), I thought that I would make Capt. Jack have a little more of an image for him. We can now both see the same character in our minds eye
when we relive the swashbuckling tales of... Captain Jack Black!
Happy Birthday, Ryan. Mom and Dad love you very much!

This is EXCELLENT. He's a very convincing pirate captain. Great composition and lights, and his outfit is wonderful. I would love to see more of this guy.
Love the richness of this--the color of the night sky, the way his hand with the cup seems to pop out of the picture. He looks like DeNiro a bit! Since you ask for suggestions, I'd offer that he could use more of a "glint" in his eyes, which might be accomplished with just a suggestion of a reflection, very subtle, but can really help.
I agree with pookah...this pirate does have a bit of DeNiro in him. I think the image is excellent as well, however IMO something needs to be done about the mug. Texture, bump, or something. Maybe some liquid. As it is, it looks like part of the image that the artist "forgot" to texture. Other than that though I think this kicks major buttocks!
Fantastic image!
Great scene making, what a fun and excellent render :) and youre right, its uncanny... we should send a copy to DeNiro for his birthday :)Happy Birthday Ryan!
It's superb. I agree with GabrielK's suggestion regarding the mug. Give it a texture/bump map to resemble hand beaten pewter.
