Great work, zammap! You've got that CMI style nailed! It'll be cool if you do have time to try one or two other styles, but the CMI style looks like a safe way to go.

Takun, I was very impressed with your recordings! We'll let you know more once we've made a decision

Hey, I just happen to have sketches of Guybrush from all five games lying around that I did a couple of weeks ago!

I'll go get them scanned in and such ASAP! *hurries off*

Sure thing, de Singe was easy, and Stan was fun (I tried to immitate his SP: SMI voice). Guybrush is just my normal voice in a higher pitch, plus I tried to leech any accent out of it. I'll scribble up a small script for them each and work on it.

Haha, awesome! How convenient was that?

It's not much of a script, I just tried to think of something funny between de Singe, Stan and Guybrush together.

de Singe: Now zen, if we turn zis ‘ere, and add zat there... ah oui! It iz coming togezere! Soon, I, ze Marquis de Singe will have created ze greatest invention since zat slimy beggair stole sliced bread from moi! Nevair again will those clumsy pirates find themselves lost upon ze briney blue sea, non! With this little darling’ upun they’re ships, they will all find their way back ‘ere to Flotsam.. and my operating table!

Stan: Step right up folks and check out the brand new invention to be sweeping the Spanish Main! Have you ever found yourself drifting through the seas lost or alone? Well, fear no more as I bring you the latest technology from Monkey Island, the Great People Searcher! Yes, just install one of these babies into your cabin, quarters or crow’s nest, and the GPS will immediately search for any people (or highly intelligent dolphins) and point out they’re location to you in an instant! Never again be lost with a genuine GPS! Now you’re probably asking yourself, Gee Stan, how can you be offering me such a fantastic item so cheaply and at such high quality that it doesn’t even need a warranty? Well folks, I’m going on holiday tomorrow, and I need my suitcase!

Guybrush: Ah, there’s no other life! Guybrush Threepwood, Mighty pirate, cruising the ocean, looking for treasure.. wondering if this stupid GPS thingy I got from Stan will actually work... Huh. That.. island looks really familiar.. Nah! It couldn’t be...

unicornfoal · 11/28/2009, 02:32 am

(aww, now I feel all insignificant with zammap's awesomeness upthread... D: )

Okay, despite my lappy deciding not to co-operate, I managed to get two of them up!

This one's older, and I only personally like the top-left sketch. Ignore the unicorn in the corner.

This one's an abandoned idea for the Halloween contest. I can't draw Sam. xD
http://unicorn-foal.deviantart.com/a...rush-145029656

I'd put up my actual entry for the contest, but it didn't feature Guybrush per se... just a kid dressed up as him. xD No wonder I didn't win anything!

Trenchfoot · 11/28/2009, 05:23 pm

Here's my tryout for Human LeChuck...

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=T7BCL4RR

I tried to do it as closely as possible to the original, but still in little places my natural tone and voice keeps appearing.
Anyway, tell me what you think

zammap · 11/28/2009, 08:07 pm

Ugh, not gonna draw anymore at the moment. My tablet is shot so trying to get some painterly backgrounds is taking forever!
Gonna wait until next paycheck to get my new tablet.

But considering this is a low non budget animation I don't think getting a style more advanced then what was done would be silly. The BG style can still be detailed but, again, not going anywhere with this tablet

I will however draw some more characters up in different personal styles.

Yeah, but bad news if you picked it up cause I was trying so hard to hide it, lol. (Well Guybrush might have had a bit of it in there.) Im a saleman irl too, I work in a mall and the lie's Ive told to push products are staggering. Anyhow, cheers! Happy to be a part of it.

zammap · 11/29/2009, 09:52 pm

Test

"I'm Guybrush Treepwood, mighty pirate"

I fiddled around with my tablet. It's... workable now.

I'm from Argentina, and sometimes my natural accent bothers a lot when talking english. Especially when there are many "t"'s on one same sentece. I get so stuck sometimes!

Buy anyway, I'll try an american accent

Ankari · 11/30/2009, 10:00 am

This sounds great! Will you be needing bg music, by any chance?

If so, let me know if you'd like to hear samples or something. It's been a while since I last worked on instrumentals, but I might have something suitable for showing, around, somewhere... I think.

(ahh... de-lurking is so difficult! but sometimes it can't be helped. lol)

Sounds good! I'm American... I have an Australian friend, so apparently I say a few things with an accent. Like Australia.

I'd love background music! Let me here what you got!

By the way Mr. Lurker. LURKERS WELCOME! You know what they say. Lurking makes the world go round!

Scrawffler · 11/30/2009, 01:51 pm

Ooh, I agree, background music would be awesome!

Things seem to be going pretty well so far. There's been some great stuff posted here the past couple of days. Looking forward to working with you all!

TomPravetz · 11/30/2009, 05:30 pm

I think writing the script is our most important task as of right now... So... We really need to get the main points of LotSN. I'm going to replay it. It'd be great if I had somebody else playing it and jotting down notes (important event/character, great quotes) too.

Great work guys. Keep it up!
