Ok so after many years of deliberating on wether or not to get a tattoo I decided I still want one. I also have a vision in my mind of what I want it to be or look like but being the unartistic fellow I am I can not get it onto paper. So I am asking for some help from the artists in this community to help me out. I would love to have a design that is a pretty typical skull and crossbones but with some additons and changes to it. Instead of the crossed bones under the skull I am looking to have two chef's knives or cleavers crossed and then either resting on the skull or hovering immediatley above it I want a chefs hat, the kind the sweedish chef from the muppets wear…

I've just begun preproduction on a feature film about pirates. Since you guys are the core audience, I was just curious as to what you would like to see. I have plenty of ideas myself, as I am a huge pirate movie fan, but wanted to give you guys a chance to chime in before I start shooting. Thanks, Leigh Scottjava script:emoticon(' ')

Ahoy all! We have completed our guest shot with an orchestra. The vignettes were a smash hit! We hopefully will have audio of Drunken Pirate and Blow the Man Down backed by a full orchestra. What an absolute blast. My crewe are really good actors as well as pirates. Here's some photos That's Diosa as a marooned pirate - she's singing On My Own from Les Miserables... The crewe in the tavern scene... from left to right - Animal, Diosa, Blackie, Lil Gutz, Flint and Touche. The props are all from our house... The band performs New York Gals with the orchestra. Hope you enjoy these as much as we enjoyed doing the show. Hurricane

figure skater from belgium was just on the telly....dancing to the potc soundtrack...it was great! the anouncers said he was the first skater to get the audience envolved. i googled him and this is what i found: his costume (one of the pirate costumes): part of an interview: Kevin van der Perren is no new name in skating. He became the Belgian champion already back in 2000 and was the talk of the town at the 2002 World Championships in Nagano where he charmed the audience and judges with a tango short program, dancing with a pretend partner. Earlier that season he got silver at Junior Worlds. Having reached the ripe age of 23, he recently skated in the Stars on Ice…

I have a very fanciful pirate novel that is due to be published in April by ArcheBooks, a very small publishing house, and am looking for authors of other pirate novels to give it a read and write a small blurb for me for the cover. If anyone is interested, please drop me an e-mail to OryginalCinn @ aol . com I can send you a brief summary of the novel first, so you can see if you might be interested. Also, please let me know what you have published. Big thanks to anyone who can help. If anyone is interested in auditioning some cover art, I'd be happy to look at original drawings and trade you a copy of the novel for it. Unfortunately I can't offer any pay.

Under The Black Flag, a new play by Simon Bent, about the early days of Long John Silver, opens at Shakespeare's Globe Theater in London on the 18th of July this year. Acording to the previews, (See links below,) this is a play about the adventures of Long John Silver before he lost his leg. It is set during the rule of Cromwell, and as a result of a thread on this subject at the UKPirateBrotherhood Yahoo Group, we worked out that, if John silver was a boy pirate at the time of Cromwells death, he would have been about 114 years olt by the time the events of the book Treasure Island took place. Here is a link to the Globe Theatre website. Shakespere's Globe and here …

You might be familiar with the Make a Flake site - a fun little place to waste time. Last year I made a few piratical flakes, and just found one of them again while cleaning 'house' on my office computer, so I thought I'd share! Flaky Captain Jack: When I get home, I'll check my photo storage, I think I might have more. I KNOW I made ship flakes, and jolly roger flakes... das

To all Woodwright Shop Fans, I just completed this weekend the shooting of "How Ships go into Bottles" with Roy Underhill. He invited me to do the show when we met last May at the NC Wooden Boat Show in Beaufort, NC. Gosh was there a lot of preparation for that...getting enough material in various stages to demonstrate a process that normally takes about 4 hours into the program time of 24.8 minutes. Made lots of pirate ships...Blackbeard's Queen Anne's Revenge & sloop Adventure, and Charles Vane's brig Ranger. Roy immediately went for the pirate ships which allowed him to say "AARRRR" a lot in his best pirate voice! Also, there are numerous "emptying the bott…

Okie dokie - I wasn't sure where to put this, since I really need historical help as opposed to Hollywood fashion help - but here goes... Jack Sparrow's clothing - how accurate is it for the period? Also - what would the individual pieces be properly called? What would be the proper term for his outer coat, his waistcoat, his breeches, his baldric - for the period? And NO - this is NOT for fan fiction purposes!!! Actually, I need a place to start costume-wise (took last year off from faires, so I have to start from scratch), and since this character is well-known in piratical circles, I thought I'd use him as a starting point, since this way I don't have to post t…

Attention Weapons Masters, Casting is currently under way in Los Angeles CA for an as of yet untitled reality show having to deal with stage combatants. You will be working, training and competing with several of the stars of the WWF however your own body mass and size is not an issue. They are looking for qualified weapons masters. You MUST be highly skilled (not just think you are) and able to use at least three weapons such as broadsword, quarterstaff, main gauche, etc. You will at some point be required to fight in armor. This will be full contact fighting. If you have a *persona* already developed all the better however they may ask you to make adjustments or re…
