My Lame Attempt at Piracy >.>

I need to learn to colour skin. Seriously. I can't do it for crap. I've tried though. (Not on this pic, but I have.) >> Tutorials Anyone?
Bleh. Felt like drawing a pirate, I think I may dress up as one on halloween and run around screaming... maybe I'll have sykotik dress as a bunny or barney and have her chase me.
OMG THAT WOULD BE FUNNY.
My mom says I'm too old for dressing up and trick or treating now though.
Is 13 too old? I don't think so, I think maybe 16 is, NO! YOU"RE NEVER TOO OLD FOR TRICK OR TREATING MUWAHAHAHA.
I hate this pose to hell and back, but I want that shirt
