Silkie McDonough Posted October 17, 2007 Posted October 17, 2007 Looks super Chris ...I have one modification to suggest, you say this is your completed garb... ...I believe that none of us will EVER "complete" our garb!
casketchris Posted October 17, 2007 Author Posted October 17, 2007 very true thats why i added the "?" on the title Nautical acquisition and redistribution specialist
Mary Diamond Posted October 17, 2007 Posted October 17, 2007 Well Done, and so nice to see the transformation ~ You have cultivated the image of a capable seaman quite well, and should be applauded for your efforts. Setting aside Hollywood is not always an easy thing to do! Oooh, shiny!
casketchris Posted October 17, 2007 Author Posted October 17, 2007 ya th ehollywood thing is fun because anybody can look at you and say your a pirate but historical well i dont know yet, they are not similar by no means Nautical acquisition and redistribution specialist
Matty Bottles Posted October 17, 2007 Posted October 17, 2007 Those shoes are pretty good. Excellent choice, man, and good work. (I know from personal experience that you can't always tell if the tongue is a single piece or sewed onto the toe until you make the first cut.) "The time was when ships passing one another at sea backed their topsails and had a 'gam,' and on parting fired guns; but those good old days have gone. People have hardly time nowadays to speak even on the broad ocean, where news is news, and as for a salute of guns, they cannot afford the powder. There are no poetry-enshrined freighters on the sea now; it is a prosy life when we have no time to bid one another good morning." - Capt. Joshua Slocum
michaelsbagley Posted October 17, 2007 Posted October 17, 2007 Hey Chris, Just thought I would throw my two cents in here with everyone else's, and say that you have done a freakin' AWESOME JOB man! Looks great! Nice job on everything in the pic! Shoes, the neckerchief, I really like the green colour on the waistcoat... Just brilliant work man!
Kenneth Posted October 17, 2007 Posted October 17, 2007 Very nice!! The only thing I would change is the picture location!! Go outside and take some pictures......OUTSIDE...now go! "Without caffine, I'd have no personality at all"

Capt. Sterling Posted October 17, 2007 Posted October 17, 2007 Grand! Keep up the good work! "I being shot through the left cheek, the bullet striking away great part of my upper jaw, and several teeth which dropt down the deck where I fell... I was forced to write what I would say to prevent the loss of blood, and because of the pain I suffered by speaking."~ Woodes Rogers Crewe of the Archangel http://jcsterlingcptarchang.wix.com/creweofthearchangel# http://creweofthearchangel.wordpress.com/
MrSnailGrave Posted October 17, 2007 Posted October 17, 2007 good job hope i get all the good comments on my grab when im done

LadyBarbossa Posted October 18, 2007 Posted October 18, 2007 A very nice array of attire there, Chris. My compliments to all versions actually. However, as much as I will interceed here about the Hollywood part... from some images of some PotC pirate outfits... I have to say, those are hell of a lot piraty than most give credit. Guess depends upon which movie one wishes to refer to. But, anyway... again, great look with all three. :) The headscarf on the first one really compliments ya emmensely. ~Lady B Tempt Fate! an' toss 't all t' Hell!" "I'm completely innocent of whatever crime I've committed." The one, the only,... the infamous!
