The pirate turtle shows up once more, this time with some of his crew. His crew is larger than this, but these are the ones I have pictures of scanned and feel like uploading.

His first mate, the rum-wielding hamster, is actually going to be turned into a clay model for a cartooning class project. I was originally going to make the turtle, but I know zilch about model making and I basically need to be done by Wednesday, so... yeah. Potato shaped drunken hamster it is.

Incidentally, there is a theoretical children's movie tie in as part of the project, so "rum" will be changed to "courage". I'm sure nobody will take him guzzling down liquid courage the wrong way.

The mermaid should probably be the first mate, but I drew the hamster first, so she's stuck at a lower rank. She is the most formidable fighter the turtle has working for him, and she can scout ahead in the water. She's intentionally not a sparkly pretty princess of a mermaid. I wouldn't say she's ugly, but she's definitely no little mermaid.

Boy, do they look formidable.

I'd hate to meet them on the high seas.

The three looks like they would work together. One being the brain, one the heart, and the other brawn. Though it could also fit the classic three balance superhero deal, with one being speed, one power, one shield idea. I am just thinking of that because of the fact that the timid hamster as slow and timid but becomes a fast and brave with his liquid courage sounds funny in my mind.

Probably not what you got in mind, but just think there is a whole treasure of ideas you're on. Could make it into they are the pirates of pirates so they could be the portrayed as heroes at times as well as villains for the sake of whatever you feel like.

Good work, and good ideas. Though thanks for putting this up, kind of gives me the corage to post up some characters I have the idea to work on even though they are still being worked on. Thanks for that Dan the man. :hug:

I would go see that children's movie.
If it ever came to Tinytown, Alberta, that is.

Why does the Mermaid look like the same lady who sold Tedd the Goonmanji game? I also want a Drunk Ram-wielding Hamster now.

An unfortunate incident with the Goonmanji lady's daughter, Furry Juice, and an aquarium. We don't like to talk about it.
