Geh, i'm not very good at this. Lets see if i can get the hang of it.

Yay! It worked. This was the ultimate version of a stonesque version of lechuck with tusks.. don't know what we were thinking. Just nuts.

Leading up the the tusks.

Is that an alternate LeChuck? It looks awesome. It has a very menacing vibe.

EDIT: Now that you mention it, though, the tusks are a weird fit for LeChuck. By the way, I noticed that there are a few other newly uploaded concepts.

Oh, I'm really interested in this, concept art and the material-that-never-made-it are usually very interesting (and so far it delivers, what a weird but cool design

). Looking forward to future updates.

*Ry Guy* · 06/05/2009, 01:04 pm

Yea, Lechuck just kind of lacks personality in this way. Lipsync would have been pretty simple though..

Shale · 06/05/2009, 01:12 pm

The tusks are an interesting idea, as is the stone motif, but if you squint a bit the horns make him look like a bunny.

Tjibbbe · 06/05/2009, 01:13 pm

Jesus Christ, this is awesome. He looks totally insane. I agree that the new version looks better, but man, I just fell out of my chair laughing at the ridiculously high level of evil LeChuck has achieved there. He looks like he's really enjoying being the scourge of the seven seas.

I can't wait for the early Guybrush-designs!

Yeah, we noticed that too... which is part of the reason he doesn't look like that anymore! Bunny LeChuck is not very menacing!

Skippy the Demon · 06/05/2009, 01:20 pm

This is awesome, my favorite part of video games is the concept art. Alot of the time you dont see stuff like this until years later, or never.

*Ry Guy* · 06/05/2009, 01:26 pm

thats why you preorder! XD

Maybe this means LeChuck is originally from Skull Island.

I think Max would say otherwise!

Wicked Mouse · 06/05/2009, 02:39 pm

Maybe some concept art from Episode 1?

Edgy_McSpoon · 06/05/2009, 02:45 pm

I think LeChuck should stay away from the whole re-incarnated as a walrus idea. He definitely works better as a zombie pirate.

btw, as one animator to another - at least you're not drawing LeChuck's animation! you've got the computer software to help you with that!

kool stuff tho!

Actually, this Lechuck is quite close to MI2's Lechuck. Much closer than CMI or EMI were for sure. And the 3D version of this concept isn't any different, it's just that the version of him you see in the header isn't the best screencap of him you could take.

As well, even though it's an unfinished product, I think Lechucks beard actually glows less in the 3D version. I'm guessing that's just from the unfinished lighting and shading though.

Really really great artwork on Guybrush BTW. I'm curious, what made you change to the current version though? I really like some of these. The two rightmost ones are the best. Though the current version is great as well.
I'm guessing it had to do with how they looked in the scenes themselves. Heightwise, it probably made Guybrush look a bit like a kid with a fake beard.

I really like the 7th one in the bottom row... proportion-wise it looks like Guybrush from MI2.

A wallpaper based on this http://vip.telltalegames.com/files/m...apirate_sm.jpg would be the coolest thing ever

KB57 · 06/05/2009, 03:43 pm

Ack! He looked like a big LeChuck jackalope. Or a giant LeChuck cootie. No, thanks.
