ssdsa Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 I've got a ridiculously large scan of the coverart of Monkey Island 2, without any letters or added taglines or anything. I also have a ridiculously large version of the Grim Fandango concept art, (the Rubacava one) and the Maniac Mansion Edison painting. I just don't know where to upload. The files are like 90 MB in size uncompressed. I've got the Monkey Island 2 and Grim Fandango one hanging in my room! ^^ Any news on those files? Could you share them with us?

Laserschwert Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 Any news on those files? Could you share them with us? Mmh... maybe he was just kidding? By the way, a few weeks ago I've mailed Steve Purcell regarding logo-less versions of the two MI-front-artworks, and he said, that he did both of them WITH the "Monkey Island" title (or at least they were never printed without them... he wasn't entirely clear about that). So if somebody has those without the complete titling (the taglines were of course added in later), it's just a retouch, like the one that once appeared at the ScummBar.

Lagomorph01 Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 I'm sorry I didn't answer your questions, I don't visit the forum that much. I do really have these paintings. I just have a really slow internet connection and I'm a very busy man. I will see what I can do when I get some time. In the meantime I'll just give you a quick tease: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not really planning on continuing right now... first thing would be adding stuff to LucasArts Soundtracks, and even that has to wait right now, since my real life is still busy as hell (so I'll join you there, I guess). @Lagomorph01: Now come on, give us some details. What are the sources of these (image-wise, not download-wise)? I guess they are insanely upscaled to be printed at that size, right? The "Sam & Max"-poster on the left is a scan from "Surfing the Highway", so I guess it was de-screened and upscaled as well... c'moooooooon!!!

It's a painting. A friend made it for me for my birthday. Anyway, the source of the MI2 poster is from the original painting, I think Steve Purcell has it hanging in his house, just like the Edisons one. The source of the Grim Fandango poster is the piece of concept art drawn, in I think it's charcoal, by Peter Chan. None of these had any logo's or anything in the first place, so none of it is "redrawn" in photoshop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Longcat Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 I'm gonna make a bigass poster of that grimscene.. hear you'll be getting them on cd ssda, if you need hosting space, I can help you out. but I guess you, with your german ingenuity, have all the space you need;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssdsa Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 Jona, I'm going to contact you regarding the hosting space when I get the files on CD from Lagomorph01. Don't hold your breath until then, though. Lagomorph01 said he'll see what he can do, and he's still trying to perfect the colors of the MI2 one because the print looks really pale in broad daylight.

Laserschwert Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 Well, so I'm now officially really looking forward to these... the only thing missing now is a hi-res scan of the MI1-poster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scummbuddy Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 And of course a high-res of the back of the Monkey Island 2 box art that Purcell put up on eBay weeks back. Whomever bought that surely must be a mojo lurker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MusicallyInspired Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Now that you're here, Laserschwert, I'd like to thank you for those covers you made. They were great inspiration for my own Sierra DVD covers I made. I even used the rule guides from your DVD cover files in Photoshop to place images (handy!).

Laserschwert Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 You're welcome... that's probably why I subconsciously didn't delete the guides Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
