The woman looks more fitting for a cowboy movie though.

I love the tiny, old pirate. He looks so crazy and unpredictable. I get the feeling his big eye swivels around independently. I love it. He looks like such a barrel of laughs!

Nice job! A few things that would drive me crazy as an animator:
Pirate on the right: That floral pattern! OH GOD. At least in Flash (maybe Toonboom) I could mask that, and the skull/crossbones. Traditionally, I'd be begging for that pattern to be taken off.

Little pirate in center: Not bad, end of beard is a bit overly complex. The brim of his pirate cap doesn't need that extra line.

Pirate on the left: Much easier. Looking a those feathers on her hat. Animating in Flash/Toonboom should be fine with a symbol.

You're totally on your way, dude!

Thanks for you input as an animator , it helps a lot to improve the designs. as I was not really thinking about all those things. Still learning!

blindeyeinsight In reply to reiq [2013-02-10 22:16:03 +0000 UTC]

This concept may help. Try drawing the same character multiple times, and after a few times you'll realize what the most tedious parts to redraw are. If you want to get really fancy, line up those drawings afterwards and have them on a loop in a .gif (esp. if in the same pose) and see which parts warp the most. I'd recommend a really low frame rate (like 3-6 frames per second) for a non-animator.
Many programs make certain details easy to re-use without much boiling or going off-model. Like using masks in Flash, or just symbolizing details. But traditionally, you have to redraw every details for every action, at 12 drawings a second normally.
But yeah, you really don't know until you've animated with them.

They are very appealing character designs, particularly if they were done in the medium of 2D animation.

Dude, I'm truly impressed with your dynamic transition in art style from the ladies you used to draw. From one great style to another. Well done, man.

That's the tiniest captain I have ever seen. Even smaller, than say, Crunch.
I like these. They're all sort of.. goofy. Goofy, but I like it.

I think he's giving a pearl to the fat lady, thats a clam not a compass

Levia-the-Dragon In reply to TellesDSNG [2013-02-10 09:40:02 +0000 UTC]

Could be either really, the design of a compass can include a little disc that flips up which could also be a pearl in this case since the image is a little ambigious, the colour and material the thing he is holding is made out of isn't known and the shape could be stylised or an ornate design.

Heck, I'm sure someone out there has made a fancy compass that resembles a clam.
