Artist's Comments

In the interest of retaining my sanity, having lost the use of my right hand and therefor all artistic ability, I made this for my desktop. Plus I needed something much darker as my background, because my eyes haven't been very happy lately when it comes to bright light. Thought I'd post it 'cause there aren't enough good Barbossa wallpapers out and about.

This is also the first time I've used stock photos in a manip. Horray for stock and stock artists! You make life that much cooler.

Hit download for full file and all that good stuff. Free for use as wallpaper to all those who share similar tastes in insanely cool pirate captains.

Insanely cool pirate captains such as...Jones?

Or Sparrow. I would agree that Sparrow is pretty awesome.

Carpel tunnel. Yeah, it's getting better but I still can't draw with it or it flares up badly again. It sounds to me like I'm stuck with it for life now, I just need to learn how to handle it so I don't aggravate it. Eventually I assume I'll be able to draw with it again, I suppose I'll just have to take lots of breaks.

:glomp: i'm so sorry.

and I don't mean to sound stupid, but what exactly is carpal tunnel?

at least you are thinking on the may-be possitive ahead.
:icontheblackdrac:
Aw, thank you. ^^

Apparently there's this big important nerve that runs through your wrist into your hand through this tube known as the carpal tunnel. If you make a certain movement enough times or something you can squash that nerve and it gets irritated and makes your hand go numb and cold and hurt. It's a lot like having your hand fall asleep when you do certain things with it, in my case, using a pencil. The problem is that if you bug it enough you can permanently mess up the nerve and your hand will always be tingly and such, and then you get to have surgery.

Yup, I'm trying. I'm finding nothing good comes of stressing out over these things. I've been sick lately with a lot of weird crap that the doctors can't figure out and so I can't do anything for except wait and hope for it go away on its own. I would a thousand times rather be sick with something and KNOW what it is than suffer from stupid mystery things. So even though this isn't going away, it's something I can learn about and confront face-to-face.
