Fealiks Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 Guy.Brush, those wallpapers are great! I love the third one, where the focus is on the post rather than Dread's house. Very atmospheric, especially when you zoom in so that the houseboat is almost centre-screen and the post is off to the right... hehe... also makes you really appreciate Purcell's composition... ahem, anyway. Great job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edward van Helgen Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 Those images and that Youtube vid look great, Guy.brush! It's really amazing that you can get such a high resolution in 3D from that piece of concept art. You should make more of them if you have the time.

Nickelstein Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 I hope you can finish this Guy.brush this looks impressive! Very well done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy.brush Posted July 28, 2009 Author Share Posted July 28, 2009 Just to be clear about it: I don't intent to "finish" this. There is just no way. Both from a copyright standpoint and a workload one. It's LucasArts' IP, I just wanted to show what could be achieved when some effort is applied. The original paintings (at least the ones we have) ooze of cool lighting and mood and I just wanted to capture and enhance that using modern techniques. I might do the Voodoo lady hideout just for fun, but otherwise, I'm not trying to do any kind of conversion, product or game mod with this.

Nickelstein Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 I don't think you understand Guy.brush... Finish game or GTFO. Nah just kidding besides Monkey Island 2 is twice the game SOMI:SE is in terms of length so a remake would take a lot of time. Oh well I tried.

Glokidd Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Seems its good enough for Kotaku  That scene is so ridiculously cool Guy.Brush, i just want to start shouting requests i cant help but wonder how the giant door in lechucks fortress or the acid pit would look. Really great work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy.brush Posted July 29, 2009 Author Share Posted July 29, 2009 I got bored and started working on the Voodoo lady hideout during render times of another project. Â Never noticed how neat the basic composition is before I started to lay it out in basic 3d. That scene is a bit more challenging from a perspective POV. Everything bends and is so weirdly shaped...but the light fx should give a nice mood. Dunno how long it takes, maybe till Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fealiks Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Fantastic effort Guy.brush, I'm awestruck. Why the blazes isn't this on the frontpage right now?  Well at least Haggis put it on talesofmi.net... who needs Mojo's front page anyway?   Guy.brush, I'd like to say that I didn't let out a girly squeal when you said you'd do the Voodoo lady's place, but I'm afraid I can't.

Â Ok so the images didnt make to much sence to me but now I am amazed! I can baraley speak! No joke I just finished MI2 and love it and this would be mabyt the best game I have everplayed!

Haggis Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Now it's also on MTV Multiplayer... who claim this will be turned into a game, and Guy.brush has apparently been cloned, since it's made by multiple "crazy Germans".

Guy.brush Posted July 29, 2009 Author Share Posted July 29, 2009 Wow. [Jon Stewart Mode]Really? Really?![/Jon Stewart Mode] Â How can anyone even think I would go ahead and magically make an entire new game out of this? It's LucasArts' IP. I just wanted to show (them) what is possible with some proper Voodoo. This is just for fun and honing my cam projection/modelling skills. Those artworks have been engrained into our brains for so long, it's just nice to make them look all fancy pantsy. Â oh btw Voodoo mama scene is coming together nicely. Just takes some time to model all the little bottles and stuff the lady has in her hideout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just love this kind of awesome* journalism, reminds me of the whole Monkey Island 5 fiasco when that concept art for the MI movie surfaced. * read: horrible  Wow thats pretty crazy. How did they get ahold of Guy.brush's stuff? are they allowed to do that?  Heres some of the comments: Gohan posted: I think that you are misinterpreting the project. It looks more like a test demo as to what MI2 COULD look like using a different method (2D art placed onto 3D surfaces) than what LucasArts did for MI: SE.  Isnt that realy what you were doing Guy.brush? MTV Makes it sound like you were going to make it into a game.  Spooty_the_gameguru posted:I'll never understand why indie devs/fan collaborators show these sorts of things when taking time into consideration. It almost always ends up with the inevitable cease & desist letter. Release it first, then let the many enthusiast press sites whisk it into infamy.  Ok so it sounds like he has the wrong Idea and so does MTV.  and Whats up with the crazy Germans thing!? Are you German Guy.brush? If not then that totaly doesnt make sense to me. I am guessing that its because its always Germans that try to make the Remakes and sequals like the DOTT2 project. I am surprised they havnt got shut down already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
don_quixote Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 ^ I believe Guy.brush is indeed a talented German, at least judging from the website. How he became multiple Germans is another question entirely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andygeers Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 I noticed you also got ReTweeted by the official LucasArts twitter account, Guy.brush - so maybe there's some hope that someone inside of LucasArts is listening! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haggis Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 How he became multiple Germans is another question entirely. They probably think that Paco Vink is the other crazy German. Just because his name appears in the credits (because of the Guybrush he drew) doesn't mean he is involved in the project though... and he's of course Dutch, not German. Journalism makes me cry.

Fealiks Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 If they actually did do this for MI2, how many people would be really pissed off at them for copying Guy.brush's idea? Looks like they can't win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lagomorph01 Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 I don't think many people would be. And that's just because they want it to look the best. It would be nice if they gave him credit or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
