Here is a drawing a of a pirate captain done in a wire-ish sketch style. I love the Captain Morgan commercials and was trying to capture the feeling of bravado in them. The pose is really what does this in both the commercials and this sketch. The offset position of the legs (with one on an object) helps to give the figure a sense of moving forward. I was hoping the smile on his face would help with that, but I think the whole head came out looking rather odd.
