Thomas Blackshear's inspiration for The Dude came from the majestic colonial look of the main character - Sengbe Pieh, known by his Spanish name, Cinqué - from the 1997 movie "Amistad" about a true story of a mutiny aboard a slave ship. Capturing the proud stature of a man who knows where he's going, The Dude's firmly grounded stance with uplifted chest connotes a secure and fearless man observing the world in earnest.
