Yeah, you're right doods. I'm used to behave egoistically on things I'm not good at and don't give enough importance to the things I'm actually working on.
Thanks for the great compliment. I'm more than honored even to know my work is considered professional work. Much appreciated, lead a wonderful life yourself too.
Lots of people struggle with ego, especially artists. I think it's ok to have a ego about your work, just try to be honest without getting a God complex
Here's some stuff I Photoshopped - well, Gimped, actually - for my King's Quest fangame.
The box art is actually a painting by Vincent Laurentsz van der Vinne I. You can see the original here. The style of the packaging is obviously a reference to how early King's Quests were marketed. Here's an example. This is by no means a coincidence - Fool for a Day is a direct sequel to King's Quest I and will be structured similarly as far as gameplay goes (exploration over story).
Not much to see here, although I take some pride in the fact that I was able to recreate the logo as it appears in the title screens for V and VI without copying and pasting The background is actually the Cliffs of Logic from VI.
The ground here is actually... The sea from King's Quest V, but recolored Trees come from Conquests of Longbow and the mushrooms are Quest for Glory inventory items.
Graham sprite is from KQI SCI, recolored for VGA quality and given a lot of other tweaks.
The ladder is taken from the thieves guild in Quest for Glory. The money bags are inventory items, also from Quest for Glory. Chest comes from Conquests of Longbow.
Right now, that's how I intend to roll - I want this to be a one man project, not to prove something to others, but to myself. Once the first version is done however, I may actually look for graphic artists and musicians to help me turn the game into something really special and fully original, at least as far as audiovisual assets go.
And, if you're interested, here's some info about the story:
s the new king of Daventry, young cavalier Graham learns the hard way that with the limitless love of his people comes also the endless hate of his enemies. Tricked by a magically inclined court jester, he finds himself crownless and exiled to a faraway land. Join Graham on his enchanted quest and prove your royal courage once more in this new animated adventure inspired by the Roberta Williams classics!
I really, really want to be able to come up with backgrounds HALF as nice, so that I can be motivated enough to do my own web comic I'm planning for years.
Speaking of which;
Yeah, it'll be about that guy. Just random quick sketches and stuff.
The winning entry in the Poll was corruption and this a silly description of what the Chileans think of theirselfes.
The study is real: We are the less corrupt country in LatinAmerica (In fact, we are less corrupt than some countries from Europe), but we think about our selfes as pretty corrupt, so that was the typical commentary when the theme of the study comes.
Chile hiding under European Union is just comical effect
Let see if somebody wants to choose. The next comic will be about:
Double Personality
Flashback
Religious Countries
America
A Little Kid in the South
Flags
Or Comics?
If she's going to Mardi Gras next year, I'll have to rethink my plans!
If I had to criticize, I'd say some of the symmetry is not there. Hair color is slightly different, jewels on one side and not the other, and not angled quite right, but it's still an awesome job and a lot better than I could do!

Thanks! I drew from a reference (I SHOULD be practising from real life, but, meeeh, I can't force someone to sit still for that many hours while I try to draw something half different) so I didn't really have control over the jewels and things like that.
Some 10 years and something, Augusto Pinochet, ex-chilean dictator, went to England for health tratement, and one Spaniard judge decided to demand him for war crimes in Chile and order his extradition.
Chile is playing Pinochet role as the accused, but his actions represent what the chilean people think of that period: One group think is was one of the best moments of our nation and other think is was a shame and the guilty people must pay. The other part, not represented here, just want to this people, both sides, to shut up.
And, anyway, Pinochet was pardoned for demency and returned to Chile. If you wanna know.
holy crop that reminds me of...

So we had to use a table (my first time using it and making something good) for my University class (I'm studing Digital Animation & Videogame Design) and we had to pick up any picture from the internet and draw it on the tablet. And since I was in the Portal mood i did this...

And here are some of my crappy pixel-art doodlings:
(I don't know why I think it's funny to draw morbidly obese pictures of Graham, but I do.)
And here's a sexy VGA-style lady Graham:

Nice! Have you made any other fangames? Are you using AGS?
Thanks! Fangames - no, games - yes.
Correct!
Kind of reminds me of Gabriel Knight.
Here are some previews of the backgrounds from my graduation animated short:
I will post more high-res stills when it's done
That'll cover about 80% of the film, so I think you'll like it

It took its time, but well....
