    Every single time a Monkey Island Movie is discussed here it seems that Tim Burton's name is always mentioned... Personally I think most of his movies are kind of Samey but whatever right? I can not think of many movies where there are blond characters... and he always changes things to suit is own tastes even when he is adapting someone else' creation... So I imagine if given the opportunity he would most likely change Guybrush's look

    To be honest, I would've expected a shopping of Johnny Depp as Guybrush.

    Oh you know that is who he would pick to voice Guybrush, and He would probably pick Christopher Lee as Lechuck and Helena Bonham Carter as Elaine.

    I think the whole Halloween contest is brought up to spread some (release date related) deadline-stress-awareness on this site xD

    Irishmile's pic - close, but Guybrush's eyes should've been bigger, he should look more suicidal and you should do more acid before you photoshop the picture. And Deep Roy would be Noogie.

    Which wouldn't be the worst idea. I can actually befriend the idea of Lee as LeChuck!

    Nah, Lee is good at playing really sly villains, while LeChuck is more of a brute.

    I agree. It needs to be someone like Brian Blessed.

    Michael Wincott would voice one awesome LeChuck

    Beware of some swears

    I used the concept art for chapter 4 and added a guybrush that someone from here did (if it's you, holler so i can credit you). also, gave guybrush a nice 2d hook hand to fit the story.

    Or even some credit to Bill Tiller for the other character models save for the new coat, hook hand, and beard for Guybrush.

    Hey, Dominus, great work! :)

    Guybrush reminds me of Steve Purcell's MI movie stuff, did you take inspiration for your Guybrush from him or it's just a coincidence?

    Dominus, that's fantastic! Checked out your blog too, cool stuff. Loved the monkey with the knife :)

    I'm surprised there hasn't been many Morgan LeFlay fan art so far, even though it seems she's got many fans/admirers here :P

    Here's the illustrations for (one of) my entry(s) this year (The animated version's @ here)

    This has made me re-evaluate whether or not Guybrush looks best with blonde or brown hair. It's just like the ongoing debate about Link's hair color in Zelda. Good work.
