Just a little outfit drawing based on historical fashion
some doodles of knuckles the dread in a more sea of thieves-y setting!! bottom comic was based on a stupid thing i did in game. it felt right
some hcs i have about dread:
he's constantly drinking/drunk. he's still on the ball enough to get the job done, but there's almost never a moment where he isn't drinking
dread drinks because he tries to numb himself/forget about things. his mental health isn't great. this is also why dread is known for being so impulsive and reckless.
he likes to smoke too. man's just a collection of vices
his quills are wavey because they get wet so often that their shape has kinda 'warped'
sea of thieves but its sonic
The slave merman and his navy officer saviour. First meeting
P.s. It took me 19 hours total to make these two arts and it's the longest work I've done so far with single arts, I would appreciate a lot your attention! ❤️
Gillion Tidestrider, champion of the undersea, hero of the deep 🌊
I love the riptide pirates so much! Gillion is such a cool character and Charlie plays him so well - I love him so much and just had to try to draw him. I spent so long on this and I’m so proud of how it looks! 🐟🏴☠️
The colors are more vibrant on my tablet for some reason and I can’t figure out how to get that to transfer to anywhere else, but I think it still looks pretty cool. This was also my first attempts at really drawing metal, which I think went pretty well! 🗡️

i bought the pirate fabric a while back and shamelessly stole the seagull fabric from my mother while at home for christmas
Her name is captain Amelia Bradshaw and I will either write an entire novella about her or forget she exists entirely.
This one is from months ago but the lighting took 500 calendar years so I will post it 500 times if I want to and you’re not allowed to say anything about it
Got a pen with a rubber tip. So now I can draw on my phone!!!!
°w°
I haven't thought of a name for them. Heck I don't know if there a girl or nonbinary yet.
But I have thought of a story with them in it. They fall in love with a pirate captain (female). So I'm leaning more twords girl so it can be a gay.
Btw they're a sailor. Has their own boat. One man crew. Kinda wonderland inspired
IbisPaint says it took 5 hours and 21 minutes. It was fun to draw
❤️Happy Valentine’s Day!❤️
The bounty hunters make their debut!
In order we have Piano Keys, Beetle, and Javy Dohns! Them and their story were/are being written by me and my friend @x-eightball and they’re very dear to our hearts. They were based off of that one tumblr post way back when about how a cowboy, a samurai, and a pirate could have hypothetically met because their time periods over lapped a little. We took the idea and ran with it, so now we have a trio of disaster queers trying to simultaneously dodge the multiple governments that are after them and their mental issues.

Characters: Soul and Ghost from Exernia (ocs)
This is my first finished video I made with procreate dream! Rating: 5/10. It’s kinda ass right now but I trust it’ll get better with updates.
Context under break :)
Soul was the god of emotion, sex, fertility, water, etc. Most of her roles involved mortals, but she felt she didn’t have a great grasp of their cultures. So, in order to fix that, she disguised herself as a celestial elemental (basically an angel but mortal [species post coming soon]) and traveled down to Exernia. While on the beach, she found a dying woman, bleeding out from a large cut in her eye. Soul saved the woman, who introduced herself as Ghost, a human pirate. In exchange for saving her life, Ghost showed Souls the wonders of humanity. They also had sex that accidentally made Ghost immortal but that’s not important rn. When Soul decided it was time to return to the god’s realm, her and Ghost got into a big fight that ended up with Ghost insulting the gods. Soul is very touchy when it comes to her family, being she only has her brother left after The War™️. So she gets pissed, accidentally tries to drown Ghost (which doesn’t work cause she’s immortal now), and escapes back to the god’s realm.
Old art of them cause why not:

Tomorrow, Before Yesterday Begins
Summary: Gol D. Roger expected himself to be in the afterlife after his execution. Instead, he found a seven-year-old boy wearing his most precious straw hat.
It was a fine day under the bright sun. He closed his eyes as he felt the warmth of its brilliant rays. The sea breeze was slowly blowing in his face. The skies were the perfect hue. It was light blue in color. He opened his eyes and stared at the seagulls flopping their wings in the horizon. People were all over the place but he did not mind them. He was just focused in the scenery. After all, it has been years since he was last here.
It was all too good for an execution.
He is going to die today.
He was never afraid of dying. Ever since he started his piracy life, he knew someday he was going to face death. A man should never gave up on his dreams even if it meant his death and he did fulfilled it. The only thing stopping him now, was his disease. He will die a year from now more or less. He was always the showy type of guy. He will surely do it with a bang.
He has been prepared for it for months now. There was no point in turning back. He always liked to live his life without any regrets. But still, he will die with one.
Gol D. Roger, the man who acquired everything. Wealth, fame and power. The man who is now known as the King of the Pirates, was facing his execution. After surrendering himself to the Marines, they decided to do it in this place.
Logue Town. It was his birthplace. The town where he was born and ironically, the place where he will face death.
Nostalgia struck the Pirate King hard. He remembered his childhood here. This place was the last island on East Blue before the Red Line. A lot of ships always docked here for supplies. Let it be merchants, cruises, marines or pirates. He always wanted to talk to people about their adventure. That was what inspired him to be a pirate. The sea just seemed to be a place where he can attain freedom. And he was glad that before he will die, he managed to succeed attaining freedom.
He walked in the plaza. A demeaning silence befell in the crowd. Even in his execution, Roger still carried an air of respect and fear among the people. A lot of people had gathered here for only one thing. To know where he put his treasure.
Among the crowds, Roger saw some familiar faces. Some of his crewmen were here to witnessed him. Most notably for him, two of his apprentices. Shanks and Buggy. He made a promise with them to not cry but it was obviously something that they cannot fulfill. Both of the boys had tears falling from their eyes like waterfalls.
When he was on the top of the platform, one of the guards talked to him.
"Have you got any last words?"
Roger turned to him and grin widely. He showed his handcuffs. "Can you please remove this? It's bothering me."
"I cannot do that!" The guard snapped.
"Why would I run away now?" Roger asked, scoffing.
He continue to walk a few meters before sitting in the center of the platform. It was taking too long.
"Hurry up and finish it." He stated.
The two guards move their spears. Ready to strike him any minute. Murmurs of people were heard. It became louder as seconds passed by. The atmosphere was tense as they stared atop of the platform with wide eyes. This was a historical moment. The death of the Pirate King in front of them. It was not something you experienced twice in your life.
And all of the sudden, the whispers broke. A man brave enough in the crowds started yelling.
"Pirate King! What did you do to your treasure!? It's somewhere in the Grand Line, isn't it? The greatest treasure in the world!"
"Shut up!" The guard barked, angrily below.
The man did not mind him and continued. "The One Piece!"
At that moment, everyone tensed up. It was the reason why most people were here today. Humans are greedy creatures. They always wanted treasures and money. If only that was the case for the treasure Roger left behind.
Laughter started erupting from Roger's mouth. That laugh. It was exactly the same laugh he expressed when he was on Laugh Tale. Too bad though, he did not have the time to tell the story of Joy Boy had left behind on the Poneglyp of the last island.
"My treasure?" Roger started grinning again.
"Shut up!" The guard shouted as he move his spear further closer to him.
"If you want it, I'll let it have for you! Go look for it. I left it all in that place."
The last thing Roger remembered, was the people's shout of excitement.
He started the new Pirate Era.

"Not fair, Ace! Again!" Luffy whined loudly.
"Tch," Ace rolled his eyes, annoyed by his younger brother's antics. "How many times do I have to explain to you that we only fight one hundred times?"
"Luffy, we need to go now. We still need to find dinner." Sabo said, erasing the scoreboard. A small grin forming in his lips.
"Why're you smiling like that, Sabo?" Luffy asked, tilting his head.
Sabo chuckled. "I beat Ace, of course."
"It won't happen again tomorrow." Ace stated, rolling his eyes. "C'mon you two. It's hard hunting when it's dark."
Luffy and his two older brothers, Ace and Sabo, just finished their training of a hundred fights a day. In the end, Luffy did not win any fights. Which was expected by now. While Sabo on the other hand, won two fights more than Ace.
They started going down a familiar path. And as usual, Ace was in the front. Sabo in the middle. And Luffy in the back. The forest of Mount Colubo. For them, this forest was home. They build their tree house from the tallest tree in here.
It has been months since they shared the sake cup that made them brothers. But for Luffy, it felt like it was just yesterday. He was glad to have them. Ace and Sabo they just kind of removed the loneliness he felt when his grandfather dropped him in the mountains.
"Shihihihi." Luffy laughed loudly. "Being brothers is awesome don't you think?"
Ace turned and looked at his younger brother. "Weirdo, why're you telling us that?"
"Yes it is, Luffy." Sabo laughed, ignoring Ace's comment.
Sabo and Ace started to have a conversation of their own. Luffy just silently followed them in the back. His eyes were glued on the trees. A lot of interesting things were seen in here. Luffy has always been a curious one. He wanted to know things that was not normally seen by him. Good thing for him, Sabo was smart and know how to answer most of his questions.
A small beetle caught the attention of the young rubbery boy. It was in one of the leaf probably five meters away from him. He stopped on his tracks and went over to the beetle. After all, it was not everyday you see an insect that was gold in color. It fascinated Luffy. He went over to the bush were the golden beetle was staying. Suddenly, the beetle started flying away. Luffy blinked a few times before he realized that the beetle was going away. He chased after it. It was an awesome beetle. He was wondering if he could keep it as a pet.
Unbeknownst to his two older brothers, Luffy was not following them anymore.
Luffy kept chasing after the golden beetle. He has never seen a beetle fly so fast. He gritted his teeth and clenched his fist. Breathing in, he ran faster. Adrenaline filled his body. He wanted that beetle and he will do everything just to get it.
After three minutes of chasing, Luffy was in the beach by then. The beetle finally stopped on a log that was probably brought by the waves. Luffy cannot helped but to grin. He will get the insect now.
Luffy's step was cautious yet fast. He needed to be careful. Beetles was easily started when you try to catch them. Opening his hands widely, he finally caught the beetle in his hands.
"Yes!" Luffy exclaimed in excitement. He started chuckling to himself.
He opened his hands but the beetle was not in there anymore. A deep frown was formed in the young boy's face.
"Huh? Where did Mr. Beetle go?" Luffy tried finding it again.
But suddenly, a loud groan startled him. It belonged to the log. He went over to see what was the source of the noise. Maybe his beetle friend was in there.
Instead of a golden beetle, Luffy found a man lying next to a log.

Roger expected to be in the afterlife after dying.
When he was younger, a lot of the older folks in town told him stories about death. One of them was the afterlife. It was the place where you will be after dying. The old men in the town would tell Roger that after he die, he will see his loved ones in that place. They were waiting for him. And then there would be a feast. There will be music, dancing, talking, and laughing. They will kiss and hug him as they celebrated his life.
He has been in a lot of places on the Grand Line. Everyone has different point of views about death. Reincarnation, nothingness, Hell or Heaven. But for Roger, the afterlife story was much more better and he was expecting that.
But things do not always go as planned.
His black eyes fluttered open. He blinked a few times trying to adjust to blinding light of the bright sun. He groaned loudly. A fierce headache ensued. He tried rubbing his head a few times. It seemed to help him even just a little.
Roger noticed a young boy sitting next to him. His black eyes were wide open as he stared at him. He has a jet black hair. His lower right eye has a scar that was probably got because of a cutting. The most notable thing Roger noticed was a straw hat. He also had one in the past but he gave it to his apprentice.
"Hi!" The boy greeted, quite loudly for Roger.
"Hello..." Roger tried to sit. It was kind of hard since his body was stiff but he manage. After all, it was only proper to sit when you were in the midst of a conversation.
"Hey, Ossan. Have you seen a beetle? It's gold in color and it fly towards you! I tried catching it but when I opened my hands, it just disappeared." The young boy ranted out with so much energy.
"No." Roger replied. "What's so special about the beetle you're talking about?"
"Because it is gold in color duh! You don't usually see a beetle like that!" The boy laughed.
A grin was forming in Roger's face. He already knew that he like this boy. The boy was full of enthusiasm. But still, he was a mystery to him.
"What's your name, lad?"
The boy blinked before grinning. He stood up and raised his hands on the air. The way he speak his next words, it was passionate and determined.
"I am Monkey D. Luffy. The man who is gonna be the next Pirate King!"

Everytime i think of pirates and cowboys, it makes me feel like i’ve grown attached to their culture & history, make more contents about my ocs, and study them. The two looked cool and lgbt+ though
