illustration of Ed and Stede from OFMD, designed to look like a romance novel cover. Ed is in front of Stede, back to Stede's front, wearing nothing but the blue robe, a black cravat, and a string of pearls. the robe is falling off his shoulders, and opened at the bottom to reveal his legs. he's looking back over his shoulder at Stede with a smitten expression. also his tongue and nipples are pierced. Stede is wearing a white shirt that is open, showing off his bare chest. a red sash is around his waist and he's wearing black trousers. He's looking down at Ed softly. His right arm is up and holding onto a mysterious rope coming down from somewhere. His left hand is over Ed's on his waist. they are standing on a ship's deck, and the sea and cloudy skies are behind them. a lone seagull flies in the distance. in the bottom left corner is pink text that reads "Gentleman Pirate". in the top right corner is white text that reads "David Jenkins"
I first had the idea for this in April 2022, didn't start drawing it until April 2023, worked on it last in 2024, then last night thought 'fuck it I'm finishing it.'
