This is something I've found almost by accident:

Check out the <a href="http://www.kesha3d.com/Gallery/JackSparrow.htm" target="_blank">proto-Jack Sparrow</a> <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />
 
lol. love the "Jack Sparrovich" <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />
 
whats wrong with russian ?? i wish he could do some modeling for the build
 
Well, judging from the Sparrow model from the game, this portrait was created either before final looks of our good captain was finalized, or based on small blurry inadequate reference photos.

I mean, I can clearly see that face on the texture for the <i>depp</i> model does belong to Johnny Depp, but it doesn't have Jack Sparrow makeup.

You know what? I think I'll make me a proper Jack Sparrow skin. And I do know that there's one made by Daede, but, well, I might do a better one <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />

Oh, and if my knowledge of Russia doesn't fail me, Jack Sparrovich means "Jack, son of the Sparrow". It doesn't signify his surname, but his father's name.

It's like that: suppose Jack's father name is Keith <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> In that case, Russians would call him Jack Keithovich Sparrov - Jack Sparrow, son of Keith. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
 
There IS a good sparrow make up face, the depp model, but daedes work is the sparrow model WITHOUT the make up.
 
I think I saw the Sparrow one somewhere else before, but the others are new to me. Interesting to see his location stuff: <a href="http://www.kesha3d.com/Gallery/Corcair2/Locations.htm" target="_blank">Locations</a>

Liked the 'Bishop' character...real nasty looking guy: <a href="http://www.kesha3d.com/Gallery/Characters/bishop.htm" target="_blank">Bishop</a>
 
To Kazeite: Thomas the Terror is correct. Daede's Jack Sparrow models were never meant to be the movie Jack Sparrow. Kodo Boon did make the actual movie Jack Sparrow, which is in the modpack as "depp.gm". It looks pretty good to me.

BTW: Jack Sparrow was never added into the game. I believe the model was a part of the Russian game, but it didn't have a texture and it was disabled. Kodo Boon made the skin for it. This version is in the Build 12.1 mod. In the Pre Build 13 pack this skin has been replaced by an improved version also made by Kodo Boon.
 
wait a sec, am i understanding it correctly that there are 3 Jack Sparrows in the game in total?
each having been replaced by another? i remember the depp skin. it's on your site. i also remember a tanned, will turner looking one. is there a 3rd?

i remember 2: the movie jack, and the "tanned, Will turner looking one. is there a 3rd that's been added recently when i disappeared from here? did i miss anything? can i heva a look at the Jacks that are in PotC's build? all of them?
 
There are three actual Jack Sparrow skins:
1) Movie Jack Sparrow by Kodo Boon (first version) - This one is in Build 12.1
2) Movie Jack Sparrow by Kodo Boon (second version) - This one is in the Pre Build 13
3) Skeleton Jack Sparrow by Jack Sparrow jr. - This version is not in any modpack at all

I think Jack Sparrow v2 is MUCH better than the first, so that's why that was one of the first things I added to the Post Build 12 modpack.

There is also a big set of skins by Daede that are based on Jack Sparrow. These range from a washed Jack Sparrow to Jack Sparrow as officer. Each nation has a different colour Jack Sparrow officer. Some of the skins by Daede hardly resemble Jack Sparrow anymore, but they all look great anyway. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />
 
Oh. I stand corrected, then.

Anyway, I do believe my Jack Sparrow is better <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/whistling.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wp" border="0" alt="whistling.gif" />

Observe:

<img src="http://republika.pl/kazeite/images2/Sparrows.jpg" border="0" alt="IPB Image" />

I even gave him a correct pattern on his bandana <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />

(yes, his bandana does have a pattern <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" />)
 
it looks excellent. my only complaints, are the fact that his skin looks too grainy. his nose also looks a bit as though it's been knocked sideways, like the pic it was takrn from wasn't of him looking straight at the camera, although it might just be me. his goatee would look better if it was a bit darker and more defined. same for the mustache. i love the fixed bandanna. his face looks a bit too serious for Jack, with the grainy skin. too be quite honest, we should stick with the old face, seeing as it captures his personality well, without making him look too serious or otherwise. it looks impassive. the only thing i think would be an improvement, would be your new bandanna, which is, frankly, much better than ones i've seen before.
great work, Kazeite!

Pieter, would it be possible, to add the skeleton Jack, for certain situations, like if the player is using the Depp skin, and has an Aztec coin? it would make it WAY more realistic. just a suggestion <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/jackhat.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":j2" border="0" alt="jackhat.gif" />
 
Well, it's not like you're ever going to watch Jack from such distance in the actual game, but, yeah, I admit that his skin may be a little too grainy <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

And, yeah, both Jacks aren't looking straight at the camera, which is why their noses may seem crooked <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

As for his expression, in my defense, I didn't had much choice - I had to make his expression neutral in order to fit his face onto the model features. Otherwise, for example, his talking head model would look strange when opening mouth.
 
nothing wrong with the expression. it's the way his face is sort of...uhhh...wrinkled. it makes him look too serious, or angry.
 
Great work, Kazeite! Especially the bandana looks great. I agree with Lord Nelson that your Jack seems to look a bit angry though. But excellent anyway. His faxce does look more realistic. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" />

To Lord Nelson: The skeleton Jack could be added, yes. I don't think there are any interface pictures for him at the moment though. Maximus already wrote some code to make the player look like a skeleton if he took a cursed coin out of a chest, but it's not finished yet and not working entirely right.
 
ah. ok. any idea how long it might take? and do all the starting characters have skeleton versions? or just Sparrow?
 
Only Jack Sparrow has a skeleton version, which was made by Jack Sparrow Jr. Without interface portraits, that is. I can add it into the next modpack update without any trouble. I just have to remember. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />
 
lol. ok, Pieter. i'll stop asking questions...for now... <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/jackhat.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":j2" border="0" alt="jackhat.gif" />

I like the kodo boon one better, but the bandana is nice.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

I much prefer the eyes on Kazeite's model, the kohl looks more noticeable and authentic. The facial hair on Kodo Boon's model looks better though, I think. Only other thing I'd suggest altering is the hair colour. The black on both models is too black. Judging from the many pictures I have, it really should be a little more brown-black than just pure black, which doesn't really look realistic.
Oh and I like the expression and face on kazeite's model. He's a pirate damnit, surely he's allowed to look angry!
