    By the way; am i the only one who misses the graphic from MI3?? I thought it was a joy to play that game, compared to all this 3D-junk.

    No, you're not the only one and we're sick of hearing it now! Thanks :mad:

    Many people miss 2D animation but that's no reason to diss 3D. It takes a LOT of effort to create any kind of animation, and when done properly any kind of animation can look great. (and when not done properly it can look pretty awful, regardless of whether it is 2D or 3D lol)

    Very cool CMI-style Guybrush, MonkeyMania!

    And that scene's looking pretty epic, xand3rd, am looking forward to see how it turns out!

    I'm really glad I dont hate the 3D stuff.... I think both have a lot to offer.. Especially now that I think 3D is in a place where it can be just as beautiful as 2D at times.... the Character models have come a long long way since MI4

    Some of this art is amazing... I'm sheepish to put up my work.

    I know I can't draw, but I still wanted to try it. Without a scanner and/or Watcom I simply drew a few dots and then use the Warp filter to beat them into shape. It's not pretty, but at least I had fun.

    Absolutely perfect. Now if only someone could make a background to go with it. :D

    BTW, I would be really grateful if somebody could make a nice Firefox Persona for ToMI!

    Mmkay... I know it's not great but it was a one minute sketch... my very first MI fanart...
    mud24i.jpg

    and I went into Photoshop and edited it, fixing the beard which for some reason when I originally drew it was pointed and coloring in everything:

    Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful. It looks almost like a real screenshot. :D

    (Some suggestions if you feel like it. Mess with the lighting and contrast a bit, and replace the verb coin with the cursor from TMI.)

    That's exactly what I was gona do when I read that :P Thanks for saving me the trouble. Now we just need an EMI version... nah......


    And why should he replace the verb icon? :S The whole point was that it was meant to be like CMI, don't you go ruining it now!

    I fiddled with lighting a bit, and this is the best I could do before I was bored with it, and the verb coin stays. :)

    That's perfect. :D

    EDIT: Just to clarify I wasn't trying to make you redo the pic my way or anything like that; I just wanted to see how it would look with the atmospheric lighting.

    Nice. No... great! I also love your choice of actors. Johnny Depp as Snugglecakes and Jean Reno as Rottingham are perfect!

    How do you make them? Concerning rendering programs I know how to make something which has the shape of a snowman but not more...
  • edited July 2009
    Well, like I said, models and textures are ripped from the game..
  • edited July 2009
    Do I like them? I want a figurine set just like the second one! (with a sweet stand/background)
  • edited July 2009
    Right, seems i finally have a use for my new Wacom tablet, time to get some Monkey Island art up in here.

    Ever Wonder why people always say Guybrush looks more like a flooring inspector?

    (AWESOME LOOKING PICTURE)

    That is so awesome! You should colour it. :)

    This is going to be a bit big.

    Note: I havent; picked up a pen to draw in maybe 10 years. I was bored so I grabbed a ballpoint and jotted this.

    wanted to have a little fun with something.

    I wanted to play with the telltale Logo, so I turned it into the See no evil, Hear no evil, Speak no evil Monkeys, not sure that comes over. Still it passed the time and is in no way as good as the other stuff in this thread. Flame away.
  • edited July 2009
    Haha, nice one! Love the monkey transformation with the Telltale logo too - great idea!

    And whoa. Just whoa. Every time I visit this thread more amazing artwork has been uploaded.

    Was bored at work and doodled this:

    Not sure if this belongs here or fan art, but this is an image that has been stuck in my head since playing CoMI for the first time. I'd been playing with it but never go tit just right, so this is a work in progress.

    To be continued....

    This Elaine is sort of equal parts Tales and MI Special edition... I painted her because I couldn't sleep. Hope you all like her.

    Indeed, I do!

    Would it be possible to pose the MI 2 Purcell Box Art with the models of Guybrush, LeChuck and the Ship? That would be neat. ;)
