Description Check out my official portfolio with more stuff: staus.me: [link]

This is my second digital painting.
This is a fan made poster inspired by the upcoming movie Pirates of the Caribbean 4: On Stranger Tides.

For this painting I used the trailer found here [link] as an inspiration

For the mermaid I found inspiration in a set picture **SPOILER** which supposedly depicts a dead mermaid lying on a beach. The picture can be seen at this site: [link]

Hope you like my poster It was made as a response to all the nice comments on my other painting of King Kong:

Saw this over on Parley, and this is just so amazing! I am in awe of your ability, and I really wish that they would use this as an official poster.

whoa, that's cool

hmm, I think, more lightning in the underwater part could do the trick

I haven't seen the third movie though, but it's -always- nice to know my favorite pirate will appear again

You should definitely see the third It's way better than the second, in my opinion... though nothing beats the first

I've been thinking of at least doing something to the text. It's much clearer at my computer, but at deviantart it's really dull very hard to read... so I'll maybe do something to that... Thanks for the comment

The second made me goes lol throughout the movie I'll looks for it

Hmm, I don't experience that, the light is the same as in my own computer...maybe it has something to do with RGB/CMYK? Deviantart can't accept CMYK files, as far as I know

Hope you'll find the cause soon

I found it! I had by a mistake changed my settings in photoshop to RGB in stead of sRGB Had to change the picture a bit afterwards, but it worked ^^ Now it's as dark as I wanted it to!

I saw this on Parley and was fairly speechless at the time. But I've had a minute to take it all in. This is amazing! It seems like quality PotC art is hard to come by anymore. This definitely gives me hope that there will be more.

I like the dark, dramatic look. But I know what you mean about losing detail when you upload it here. It bothers me too.

Hey sorry for the late answer I've been working on figuring out what happened to the details and in the end it happened to be my settings in photoshop of course I had somehow changed the color mode to RGB in stead of sRGB which means that browsers don't know how to view the picture properly and in stead they just guess at how the colors should be

It's still not exactly as I intended it to be, but it's way better now ^^

I'm glad you like it I'll definitely make more

I liked it before, but now that I can see the details under the water I like it even better. Once again, very nice.

And I'll have to check the color mode on my Photoshop the next time I draw something (which may be a while). That may be why I seem to lose some of the detail.

xD xD xD !!!

Hah, just take your time and explode! That's how I feel when I made these pictures Exploding!

Btw. I've fixed the problems with the colors now It was the settings in Photoshop that I had messed up ^^ I had changed the color mode to RGB in stead of sRGB which means that no browser exactly understood how to measure the colors and in stead they made guesses at it which means that it all got darker
Still it's not exactly as I intended it to be, but it's better now

Sorry for the late answer. I haven't had time to answer the comments during Christmas And thanks again!

Happy New Year by the way. :3
