Description
Erik in his swashbuckling teens.FINALLY! A design for Erik that is totally my own! *Maniacal laughter*
Recently I learned something very wise from my phriend ~MySweetPhantom : "The Phantom doesn’t really belong to ALW or even Leroux, he belongs to the phans who love him, so my story doesn’t take away from the phantom, it adds to it!" I love that. It is makes a lot of sense, too ("look at your face in the mirror; I am there inside"). On hearing this, I decided that my own concept for Erik isn't a bad idea at all, so I chose to elaborate on the stories of his life before he came to the Paris Operahouse.
So here is Erik in all his skinny, youth-y, my-own-design-y glory.
Sadly he is probably still © someone other than me....
Oh yeah and he is hungry in this picture because I was hungry while I was drawing it.

This is perfect, I've always wanted to see more of Pirate!Erik. (The man has done everything...)
He also kinda reminds me of Johnny Depp, like a cross between Edward Scissorhands and Jack Sparrow.
Keep up the great artwork!

Pirate Erik! That just definitely made my whole LIFE. His clothes are so cool. The cloak and the arm-thingies and just...wow. That's really, really awesome. His hair looks like something out of a Final Fantasy game...Haha.

Wow this is so awesome! I love young Erik, makes me want to read Kay again...damn college and eating up my time. Anyways I really love the unique style you drew him in, you have to draw one of him colored sometime too.
I also like how you drew a bit of the deformity on his hairline where his mask doesn't reach. It's so awesome!

I love the way his hair just sort of springs out... I like that he is quite thin, but seemingly quite strong underneath, you can see the muscles...
his clothes kick arse, seriously, best pirate Erik I've ever seen! the tattered cloak is a nice touch.
Great picture, I love the concept of Erik at sea, I bet he'd be a master tactician too...
