[Mixamo Contest] - Torch - Corsair (WIP)

Torch

Hey all, decided to work on a Corsair/Privateer type character for seeking treasure (I know, pretty original!)

Have been looking up some references for the design and will start roughing out something soon. Just a couple of images to spark ideas and get going in the right direction:






Look forward to jamming some art with the rest of you guys :thumbup:

Hey Anais, cheers! Quick block in today, way too much stuff I want to improve to list right now, so will just leave it at 'very WIP'

Hey Lotet, cheers for the bump and great folio - I hope one day I can get to your skill level

I thought we had to start in the 19th century? Pirates were 17th century. Is this just a technicality? Reason I'm asking is because I was considering a pirate also but thought it wouldn't work with the contest rules.

Torch

Hey Andrew thanks for the feedback! I was unsure about this as well, looking up some info on the subject - as far as I am aware Barbary Pirates/Corsairs still operated upto and in the 19th century (e.g. Rais Hamidou) so I think we're safe
