Love the story and the illustration, Guybrush looks great in hat. But I would hate to see that dream come true. The immortality, sure. The mafia, go ahead (insult gunfight?). A kid, no! That's often a bad sign for any sequel. :rolleyes:
Hahaha I thought the same thing.
I think it can be handled well, as long as the kid is their own person, and not a copy of one of the parents or a mix of the two. And the story is its own story and not a repeat of the parents story or the same thing backwards.
You know I have often considered myself a dedicated MI fanartist.. someone with a decent amount of skill... but then I often log on here and see what others do and I have to completely reevaluate.
Yeah, whenever I try doing something it ends up feeling and looking like crap in comparison. So I kind of stopped trying. although I guess I might finish my comic someday, it had funny parts.
When I see things like that, I envy people's talent, but then I realise I would need to work hard to get to their level and I'm lazy, so I stop envying them.

I take no credit for the Atari game. That was all that label maker I found. And I'm guessing the other thing was the paper voodoo doll, which was very crudely drawn and assembled. Actually, now that you mention it, both the Atari label and voodoo doll have started to curl pretty badly...
And now...I have absolutely no business being conscious right now...
Well guru, it's still all better than anything I have done. And it's still work. And I envy you that map but I know I could never make my own, let alone know how to make it have a picture on both sides.

Just for the record, I completely agree. I just drew it because I liked the outfits.
My Cernit Parrot of Gothenburg.
Notice the string from the back of it's head.
It's about 37 cm / 14.6 inch from tailfeather to forehead.
No "knock knock" jokes, please.

Hehe, i'm agree with you xD
Awwwww, your parrot is so cute!! ^///^ I love it!
I wrote the knock knock sequence in C but I can't remember where I put it. One day I'll do it in Java and put in in an applet on a PHP page for all to play with.
And such is my creative skill. I can script/program but am very lazy and very out of practise.

Painting time! (click the images for bigger views)
About to start... Guybrush is already primed in black. Let's hope this works!
A few progress shots... the little details were really hard (especially the eyes).
And I haven't done the pattern on his coat. Maybe some other time.
Can you spot where I totally messed up the coloring?
Nice paintjob! Is the messed up colouring on his belts? I thought those were dark brown, not black. Ah, the sight of Citadel paints and brushes gives me a warm glow inside. (and the compulsion to BUY MOAR)

Holy crap, that's awesome! Did you paint it, or use metallic clay/metallic powder?

Missed your question.
Paint and spray varnish. Lots of spray varnish (love that stuff) to get a stronger surface and get back the lustre to the gold that it lost when I added the darker layers.

Your parrot is awesome.

Buh...
How?!
This is awesome beyond my ability to comprehend.

Hey, it could always be worse. Here's an ego boost at my expense.
Says the guy who made a real-life version of the Feast of the Senses map.
... Among other things.
I think I just had a heart attack.
I'm suing you for a buhjillion awesome-dollars.
Naw, that was just cutting and pasting together screenshots. And what are these "other things"?

btw, want.
Hehe, i'm agree with you xD

Sir....how?
And because of how amazing this picture is, I am now tempted to draw Guybrush in 1930's/Steampunk-ish outfits.
And you wins the internet sir!
ok, i want that parrot! NOW!
i want that parrot!
oki tell you what to do: you have to make a 2nd one, put it on ebay and link the auction here

Done! Kinda...

How long did it take for you to paint that little buccaneer?
Edit: And yeah... Thanks to everyone that have praised the parrot. The parrot is pleased.
And no, the belt isn't the messed up part I meant (and I think it IS black).
Ah-ha! Is it because the yellow patterns on the cuffs are at the bottom rather than the top?

"You just say bingo..."
The Guybrush model and the parrot are both incredible! You people are so talented!
most awesome thing ever! °_____°
I especially like all the curly lines.
