When you think of space pirates, do you immediately think of them in modern/futuristic clothing or traditional pirates you see in movies? How about their ships?
definitely futuristic, with advanced technology, even everyday clothing would have a more enhanced use than just being worn as loungewear
when you asked about space pirates. it reminds me of this ps2 game called “rogue galaxy”.
the mc is a space pirate. because the crew came from different planets, they wear their traditional clothings of the planet where they came from.
a dessert planet, a jungle planet, a mine planet, an advanced modern planet.
there’re also robots and man-beast.
the ship itself looks like sea ships in general. but with technology that allow it to fly in space.
also they can breathe in space freely.
Space pirates? I think of Firefly & Serenity. Advanced technology, a bit steampunk, rich cultural traditions that have withstood time & even the development of new ones that have continued to flourish in the cold depths of space.
Yep, initially, I must admit that is how I picture them; rag tag, rough and tumble, with their own code and laws, dressed in Pirates of the Caribbean or Treasure Island style 😆
If the novel describes them, however, I will then picture them accordingly.
I imagine their ships, on the other hand, to look like old, beaten up space ships.
Not ashamed to admit, my brain immediately goes to Treasure Planet.
But after a second thought, like when I’m reading light novels, it’s more hightech and such. Like a military starship that has lax ideas on uniforms, but not armor and equipment.
It may even be a military starship that either went rouge or was taken by pirates. Kinda like the game “Halo” in style, but Blackbeard in spirit.
i know it’s a little old but Albator is my fav with his Arcadia.
