This is Niddler the second character in my Pirates of Dark Water series. He's a multi-hued monkey bird from the planet Mer. It's anybodies guess but he resembles a cross between a spider monkey and a parrot. He is a character from one of my childhood favorite cartoons; The Pirates of Dark Water. As you can see, one of his favorite snacks is Minga Melon.

Holy cow! There's some impressive detail here!
I am wondering if Niddler was inspired by the Bowie lyric from Moonage Daydream, "you're squawking like a pink monkey bird"
Beautiful, You truly made him into a beievable creature
He's so cute

omg, you are fast becoming my hero! Are you doing MORE of PoDW characters then? After looking through your stuff, I would really, really, really like to see you do more of this. I loved this show (and let's face it, it really wasn't that well done. But it had pirates, and magic, and pirates, and cool characters, and pirates, etc)

I LOVE HIM!!!!
Yay for Pirates of Dark Water fans!!!
Do you know about the first 5 original episodes that were named "Dark Water"?
Thank you! I'm not sure, it's been a while since I watched them.
the original 5 were only released on the Fox TV channel back in '96 under the name "Dark Water". After that they were edited and re-released into a VHS movie under the name "Pirates of Dark Water" and from there into a 21-episode series with the same name.
Yup. I'm a nerd fangirl.
Wow, 15-year flashback to when I was ~10 and watched this on TV.
Really beautiful.
Really beautiful.
i adored that show!
Suddenly, nostalgia!
