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
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.
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.
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.

Ah... didn't see this thread or the image with the improved lighting. Had to updated the image I posted in the unofficial photo editing contest thread.
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.
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.

Absolutely perfect. Now if only someone could make a background to go with it.
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:
You mean like...
...this?
Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful. It looks almost like a real screenshot.
(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!

And whoa. Just whoa. Every time I visit this thread more amazing artwork has been uploaded.
Complete with sloppy 5 minute colour job.

That is one fancy Lechuck!! Very well done!!
I'm drawing my version of Guybrush and the gang as we speak.
To be continued....
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.
LeChuck at his best. Very nicely done.
