#my art#original character#pirate oc#character reference#Captain Rigel#Here Be Pirates#AAAAAAAA#I'm SO HAPPY w this ref !!#my friends can attest i was sending updates while working on it just losing my mind over this fucking shark#affectionately referred to as 'freak' 'twink' and 'salazzle lookin ass'#idk when i'll end up working on Avery's counterpart but after i get that done i probably won't share too much publicly for awhile#i'm putting a lot of planning into this story and i don't wanna jump the gun on sharing my WIPs until i have a backlog#n knowing myself if i let myself seek the early dopamine hit of infodumping abt it i'll lose the motivation to work on it properly#i will say this is the most passionate i've been for a creative project and i'm very happy
