Almost finished my latest. This is Mary Read (A real life female pirate and shipmate of Anne Bonny, my other pirate). Here is her back story:
"Mary Read, her gold has never been found, Mary boosted that she would take her gold with her. But unknown to Mary, her gold was cursed. Mary now has a thirst that can never be quenched, no matter how much she drinks. Now every Halloween her thirst drives her crazy as she tries to quench that which cannot be quenched"
This is her in a set up test pose with no water running.
I will make sure the sleeves are extended to cover up the work on her.
Her is a close up of the head with the water running:
I have a few minor adjustments to make in the mouth to improve water flow. Her clothes are wet in the picture because when I turned on the pump the Bootle was not in the proper position.
Overall I'm pretty happy. The purple looks great in the day, but no so good at night so that was a boo boo. I'll post a video over the weekend of her all finished.

That's really good! She looks like she's being held up by a sword in the butt! LOL
What kind of pump are you using?

The sword in the butt never occurred to me! I just pictured her leaning on the tombstone to drink as much as she can. I sorta of like it.
The pump I bought on Amazon, Sunterra Model # 137016, 320 Gallons per hour. I seen other drinking pirates and I just wanted mone to have more water flowing. This pump might bit a bit too much, but I'm happy with it.Making the world a funnier place, one blucky at a time
