This pirate is funny. VERY funny.

Excellent video. Kinda still prefer your musical numbers, but this was fantastic. I like how you went so far as to even change the background color to give it a "treasure map" appearance.
great toons as always, but I have to admit, i missed the music. It didn't take anything away from the cartoon itself, but the music made them seem more childish, which I had enjoyed. Like I said, the fact there was no music didn't hurt the toon any, so good work :)
Apparently simple in the appearance but very effective in the delivery. The clean humor is a great bonus, which is hard to pull off, and the sound effects are crisp and soothing to the ear. I especially love the little details that give personality to the pirate such as the eye movement and some vocal nuances here and there (1:07 in particular).
My only minor criticism, however, is in the selection and timing of the breathing at 0:39 and the dirt mound sound effect while the pirate shovels throughout the short. Nothing serious, but I couldn't help but feel it was "off". Everything else was as sharp as a knife.
That said, the cartoon short you made was top notch (as usual). Great job.
Nice. Loving all the pencilmation humor.
