I'm looking for some inspiration and need pictures of Asian pirates/bandits from the past, Pirates of The Carribean pics are fine but I'd like some pics not from there and I don't need any modern pirates. I have looked at the Outlaws in The Marsh book as well as the history of asian pirates and watercolors depicting asian pirates. I'm just looking for things I may not have found (actual images or links to them) maybe from an RPG or something, thanks

Oh and I've looked at the pirates/bandits from the Jade Empire game as well.

Have you looked for pics of the Mantis Clan in Legend of the 5 Rings?

They had a lot of pirate elements, although often a mix-mash of Japanese and Chinese historical styles.


edit - examples

No I haven't but I'll look into them and it's ok if it is a mix of historical designs because the idea is to get inspiration for more of these



It's a concept of Fire Warriors from the Farsight Enclave and I'm looking for more inspiration on how to do these. Thinking about it this may not belong in the off topic thread oh well

Ah, yeah they'll probably be good examples for that.

If Mantis Clan starts to run out of pic searches, the individual families (or main ones) in the Mantis Clan are,

Yoritomo, Tsuruchi and Kitsune. A search with those names and the abbreviated Lot5r should turn up some results.

Six mistakes mankind keeps making century after century: Believing that personal gain is made by crushing others; Worrying about things that cannot be changed or corrected; Insisting that a thing is impossible because we cannot accomplish it; Refusing to set aside trivial preferences; Neglecting development and refinement of the mind; Attempting to compel others to believe and live as we do

Your second pic dosen't really look like a pirate just a samurai on a ship?

The 3rd one though gave me an idea to watch The Swiss Family Robinson

I hope you all do realise that when I say I need pictures of asian pirates that dosen't make this thread into some kind of post asian girls in pirate costumes collaberation. I would appreciate it if you could keep the sources or images appropriate to the discussion since images like those above in no way help me, thank you.

Me? Tactful? you're kidding right I probably have the least tact out of anyone on the site. There isn't any hurry on them I've been searching since I made this, I'm just collecting bits to make the above Fire Warriors and it's always good to have some inspiration.

Eh I would normally have done that as well but not quiet myself today
