I might translate this article later today. This one was the most complete one, even in Italian news it's not talked about that much.

Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End

What’s the core concept?

Pretty much just a fanzine, so a collection of fic, art, and meta/related stuff, related to our fandom, i.e. Miami Vice and more specifically C/T. As of now we’re looking at one issue, but if it goes well then possibly we may make another. Never say never, eh?

I’m interested in contributing, what would you like?

I’d love any contributions of fanfic, fanart, or meta/analysis/essays! It would be much appreciated if these could be things you haven’t previously published, or in the case of meta, things you haven’t published in a ‘fully fledged’ form before, and a soft limit of 5k words for fic and 2.5k words for meta. Baby steps!

In terms of content, please keep fic to at most what you consider to be AO3’s ‘Mature’ label, and art to ‘Teen and Up’, but this is generally a little flexible.

To actually get your submission to me, please send me a message and we’ll sort out the transfer details on a case-by-case basis. Don’t worry, I don’t bite! Please also remember to include how you would like to be credited, though again this can be sorted out. If you’d like to be anonymous, that’s also fine.

Please don’t feel intimidated if you haven’t published any fic, art, or meta before either. This could be the start of something new! (It feels so right, being here with you…)

I don’t do any of that but I’d still like to contribute…

I would also very much appreciate any rec lists (with a brief explanation of each rec), behind the scenes trivia, or really anything that’s related. I’m not really picky! If I can find a way to get it in then I will.

When’s the deadline?

If you’re busy right now, well, good news, so am I! I’m going to be out of serious action for the next two weeks, and while I’ll do my best to respond to any questions in that time, I absolutely can’t do anything too editorial until after that. All this to say, the final submission date will probably be some time mid-August, but I can keep it open if that’s too soon. Take the 15th of August as your working deadline if you’d like one.

How do I get a copy?

When everything’s done and sorted out, I’ll make a PDF (printable) available on my blog, and if you’d like to directly be sent this file, let me know and I will send it to you. I can’t print any myself, unfortunately. It will be completely free, in case you were wondering.

At some point, he saw the Asian-inspired costume designs from AWE, apparently including Elizabeth's pirate king design, and threw his own Singapore Jack costume together for Comic-Con. You'll notice that his work is basically a less detailed knock off of Elizabeth's outfit, with the leather work's shape and the color combos of super dark blue with gold accents being there, but the details of the embroidery having to be kind of thrown together:

Toby/Sith then photoshopped Depp's face onto his SDCC shoot to prank us on the KTTC fan forums.

They were so convincing they took off and got passed around as an actual behind the scenes exclusive for a while, but the truth didn't seem to spread after it. Here's archived pictures from his own gallery laughing about how it made it into major publications as an official leak:
