Talk:Bartholomew Portugues

Picture?
Hmm... I have a etching in a book we could upload, however I'm somewhat reluctant to upload it. The law states 10% of any book may be copied and only for educational purposes, it may not be reproduced for profit for copyright reasons. Well, this is somewhat educational purposes and it will be a poor scan at that. I don't want to start uploading dozens upon dozens of images from books and as this has little to do with One Piece. And if I do I'll crop the image so the whole thing isn't being scanned for obivous reasons.

However, there is something itereasting about this guy I'm tempting to say we should upload. He isn't an EXACT clone of Ace, but you can see some Ace in his face (note: Ace's hairstyle is a scruffer version for example, makes you wonder how much research Oda does looking at him...), which is why I'm thinking it might be worth uploading it. It isn't just this guy... I have a picture of Jean-David in front of me also and I can see Mihawk in that guys etching. But they all do look alike at this period somewhat anyway! Its the style the artist uses that does that and a mixture of ideals of the period (learnt that in art history). XD

General thoughts before I do any scanning? One-Winged Hawk 12:58, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
