I failed...

I was supposed to have 24 posts...
And even in my last ditch efforts I wasn't able to make 24 posts, I managed to cover the criteria but fell short at 23.

Hang on... if the last was 23... and this is one more...

24!!!

Yippi! I pass! Whooooooooo!

And with 25 mins to spare :D

Set

Here is the set for my machinma.
You can see the corners, I have to make them longer to make it look more like a horizon.
I may also have to rotate the boat so I can look at it on a different angle to hide the corners.

Brody the Parrotless: Uncensored

Augustus Brody is an odd sort of character.
He very well may be the noblest man you may ever have known but he can also be very gutless and wimpy.

He is without parrot, as his old one placed a restraining order on him after he kept harassing it to get shoe laces.

He rose the the rank of first mate on board Cap'n Davy Sharkbait's ship and not much is known about him other that he is Ethiopian (his albino).

Cap'n Davy Sharkbait: True Hollywood stories

Cap'n Davy Sharkbait is the worst pirate around.
Worst not as in meanest, but as in WORST!

Born Steven Robinson into the a rich family who owns the local rum brewery, he soon became and alcoholic by the age of 9.
He stole his first boat at the age of 5, sure it was only a paper boat made by a fellow classmate, but it was a boat none the less.

His sailing skills were self taught, perhaps explains why they are so bad.
He gained his nickname "Sharkbait" as he is a regular cluts and falls off the ship very often, and lost his leg to a disgruntled green tree frog, but he tells everyone it was taken by a shark. No one believes his story as there were no sharks in the aquarium at the time.

Castor the Beaver: Behind the Blow

Castor the Beaver is a fun loving, happy go lucky and mischievous beaver.
He lures unsuspecting victims whit his cute charm, and then plays nasty tricks on them.

He was born in the Zasavica bog in Mačva, western-central Serbia in 1856.
He grew up in a family of 5, two parents, two brothers and himself. He was the middle child and often teamed up with his older brother Fiber, to pick on his younger brother Canadensis.

His parents gave him his name after their scientific name "Castor".
He often goes on long unexplained trips, and soon gets lost.

To get home he stows away in hulls of pirate ships, when he has arrived to his destination he eats their wood for the long trip to shore and departs leaving them stranded.

Here is the other pirate, Brody the Parrotless' textures.

This is his head texture, has a little more detail on it than the other ones.


And this is as per usual pretty crappie.
