Sirena Crew Below Decks

This wasn't as hard as I thought it would be--except for the background. After Vasiley and Hess, I knew the paper wouldn't hold what a realistic background would require. The paper on the last one was terribly warped with just one light layer. So, I just added a gradient, since I didn't want to mess it up. I put in Ebad's legs as promised, and (after checking Bart's profile) I added his tattoo, which I had forgotten. I'd also thought he was blonde, so I'm glad I checked everything. He's got a straight, 7 through Jack, but I don't think Poker was around back then

Why does Pietro get a bigger mug of rum than everyone else?

Whoo. It was crazy fitting all these people in this one. I'm glad it's done with. Hopefully it will be painted and completely done with tomorrow, so I can check it off my list.

This pic centrers on Edward Roberts and Michael Blaylock, just regular crew members from the RPG Life on the High Seas gambling. Blaylock belongs to NauticalNymph and Edward (aka Bart) belongs to SaturnWind. Michael is an Irish boy, used to be a marine drummer boy on the HMS Restitution before deserting. Edward served on a few merchant vessels before the Sirena, I believe. Then in the back at the center table: left, we have Alexander Hatch, an old drunk with a mermaid tattooed on his forearm. He actually died before the Sirena was introduced, but he comes up in conversation now and then as having fallen overboard drunk. So, I had to include him. He appears to be scolding Jesse at the table furthest to the left. I also made him blind in one eye, lol.

On the right side of the center table is Ebad, a middle-aged sailor that is friends with Bart, having served with him on their last merchant ship. Slinking through the gun deck looking for a seat is Pietro Manelli, a childhood friend of the captain who always took advantage of the man's leniency towards him and wa finally shot in the face for trying to molest his cabin boy. He has been stalled by Woodword, the ship's odd purser, and looks quite upset about it. Woodward is known never to show his face above decks and even frightens Angelo at times with his awkwardness. Looking at his outfit, you can tell he was pressed from the navy.
