Impact Impact

this is a great piece and texture has been used to great extent here to create a piece with wonderful impact, this is also achieved with the perspective through the sword which very much involves the viewer and makes it quite a personal experience. the chosen color scheme, which is rather calming and would usually be associated a warm summers evening, provides quite a contrast to the suggested topic of piracy and violence. i like this piece more as i look at it closely and i honestly like this piece a lot. however, and i may be wrong, but there could be some historical inaccuracies, and the sword hand could have a little improvement too.
