irishmile Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 according to the Facebook Q&A they said they only had 3 artists working on the Special Edition, and they had a really short deadline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThunderPeel2001 Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 They said it took 8 months to complete... Is that short? I guess so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irishmile Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 I think its short for three people to paint all the backgrounds and animations... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plamdi Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 8 months would have been longer than either the original MI1 or MI2 took to make. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrik Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 It's not really that short considering it's all they'd have been doing for eight working months (something like 1200 hours). It's not like they just do tidbits of it here and there after work like we fans do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parabolee Posted July 1, 2009 Author Share Posted July 1, 2009 Here are the games classic style: Much better, as beautiful as Curse is, I still dislike Guybrush in that game. I just find it hard to see him as the same guy that was in the first 2 games. Love the voice work though. I'm working on my LeChuck's Revenge Special Edition Guybrush sprite Looking great but I'm really too busy at work to finish him right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spiralout Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Here are the games classic style: Great work. I think the only problem is that it looks like he still has a mustache in the last one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SyntheticGerbil Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Really nice work there, Parabolee. As much as most of the thread is filled image links from parabolee's website, those sprites are not his doing, it was done by the guy with the username Monkey Mania.

Jeff Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Wow, very nicely done! The CMI one is cool too, though I am not as much a fan of Guybrush's look in that one (love the overall style). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkey Mania Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Great work. I think the only problem is that it looks like he still has a mustache in the last one. Is that what that is? I'll fix that. Edit: Here we go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordTrilobite Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 The eyebrows of the Tales version seem odd though, he looks angry. Curse and Escape should also have extra colours on the face and hair. Otherwize it looks really cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy.brush Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Haha CMI pixel Guybrush reminds me a little bit of Oktoberfest: http://blog.miet24.de/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/tw_oktoberfest_kinder.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SyntheticGerbil Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Haha, when you put it that way in terms of lo-res sprites, it certainly is a very weird progression for Guybrush in terms of looks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkey Mania Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Nice! I hope LucasArts listens to the fan reaction to the look of the SE Guybrush. LR:SE Guybrush has potential of looking awesome. Edit: One last change to Tales Guybrush Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scapetti Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Fixed except C and E faces, I couldn't get them to look right. I still think the Tales one needs a little work around the face area. The lighting on his face is awkward. You've given him a strange little nose... and the eyebrows are just what? I also think the beard is way too long... umm maybe just redo the whole face Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melancholick Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Maybe just do it yourself? I LOL'd. But while you're boggling our minds, MM, could you throw together a 2D remake of EMI with those sprites? Hopefully by this weekend? I've got a bit of time to kill before BF1943 and MI:SE come out, and that'd be a larf. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I put back that extra pixel on the left of his nose it just looks weird. I also changed the color of the lock of hair above his eyebrow for contrast.
