We be pirates

<sub>Ugh I had soo many extra pictures already sketched out on paper but I just ran out of time in the end because serious time management problems.
I'm so angry that I didn't make it because it costs so many points and will definitely lessen Craftie's chances of placing and I wanted him to do good.//slaps self
Had much fun drawing this even though I was unsure if I could manage to finish it in time. Again everything in the background is drawn by hand, no brushes, no textures no nothing except my trusted round brush.:I
Now my hand hurts.

Yan was absolutely content with Craftie's state even though the stallion seemed to be a little tired, maybe from the long journey.
The man refused to think of the other possibility: that Craftie was getting old.
Warming up went well and soon enough the usual excitement took hold of the both of them.
Just before it was their turn, Yan leant down over his stallion's neck and whispered soothing words.
"We're at a real pirate stable, mate.
And there's even a boat and real pirates.
Aren't we two lucky fellas?
We be pirates, just for one day, aye?"
