I'm a sailor in the US Navy (Submarines), I really love the theme. But one thing I would do if I was you would be add nautical theme tattoos. For example sailors would get Pigs and Chickens tattooed on their feet, because in the event of a ship going down those were two animals that would float. A White Sparrow bird 🕊️ also represents either 5k/10K miles traveled on the sea. You could also have turtles shell backs (meaning he has traveled across the equator) or have Golden Dragon (crossing the equator and international dateline at the same time) etc ...

I have noticed you both getting more and more ink so the next giant needs a full pirate sleeve tattoo. Maybe a Japanese traditional one or a Chinese dragon.

Something I love about how you paint, is you don't seem scared to try things around things you've already painted, and are always willing to take a risk. Whenever I get my work to a good place, I stop, worried I might ruin it, but like when you throw the pigment down at the end, you always push it somewhere special!

Pirates are great, my favorite theme so far! the red & white scheme is an awesome idea, but the painting is a little to bit to "clean" for Pirates (18:57), in my opinion u need a dirtier look on this cloth. You could probably add some loose thread / strings to get more used look on the clothes and or add a heavy filter on both colours? It could be my monitor but it looks a little bit to "glossy"? It should be more dried and dirtier cloth. I love the skin. that Jolly Roger is so good, damn good job done here Emil (19:08). We need more freehands! As i can see, so many people want you to paint tatoos and they are all right, R.I.P. Emil, hahahah. how about a giant using a swordfish as a fist weapon? or a giant who is half in water and a Squid friend with him (like you decided to add the parrot for this one 12:15). Maybe somehow like miniature "Lotann, Warden of the Soul Ledgers". We all want the giant Squidmar miniature! it would be funny if a giant would use a Fish / Whale as a weapon. to slap some enemies. I am gonna slap that like button!
