I was working on the wiki today, and couldn't find an Inventory Image for the Human Mage. 

Would this work for you, Dioxine?

Ha ha ha, that is priceless! ;D

But where is his hat? I mean, I drew him with a hat! :)

That definitely needs a wizard hat; with stars.

Left breast pocket of his coat needs some sort of symbol, the Mason one comes to mind, but seems like a bad idea to just use that.

Sorry, no inventory pic, just the bigob and the sprite.
He's losing his hat on his death animation, so it's probably why the bigob doesn't have it.

Here's the spritesheet if you have trouble finding it.

Do we have a probable ETA for the next official update? Seems like there's enough material already for a good one.

Awesome, thanks!  I'll just have to make a sprite sheet without the hat and put in the Crazy Hair!  (TM) !! ;)

(but seriously, he does look cool with the hat )

Crazy hair looks good, if overt. Beats having no picture at all, anyway!
As for extras, a large pocket watch would be good. He looks too much like the Sharp Guy, too... modern. The narrow tie also doesn't fit the crazy beard, some sort of XIX century tie-cloth would look better (or no tie at all, just all buttoned-up). Three-piece suit would be the best :)
Wizard hats? That's ceremonial dress, much outdated :)
Masonry symbol? Why yes, they're freemasons.

Are you serious? No ridiculous looking wizard hats? C'mon, that and the hobo hair are like the best parts.

Since the pilots are in, there was no other choice but to do this...

Whoa.

Living on a Zeppelin is probably my greatest Piratez-related fantasy. Now we are closer to actually experiencing it!

Does it have a kitchen? A lounge? A big sleeping room with lots of pillows?

And I would like to suggest a sunbathing deck! (Deckchairs optional.)

Looks a lot more high tech than I expected from the Bootypedia picture, but it looks great as a 27th century zeppelin!

Kudos to whoever manages to run a tactical mission using a zeppelin as transport. Gotta shoot down a UFO real close given the speed is goes at.

Heh, it should count as an interception craft with a single heavy missile if the pilot is holding a Chinese Dragon and a launcher for it  :P

More realistically, I think it would be funny to allow it on infiltration missions - the advanced scanning suite re-purposed as radar jammers, making it a stealth zeppelin!
