just so you all know i havent done a runner, im back on the case now lol.

good work, reminds me of the game 'Toonstruck'

the skin shadows look too dark now, i think.

also i noticed that her mouth in the side view is wider than in the front view, but it should be skinnier due to the angle.Ã,  this is more apparent with colossal's edit of cutting in the bulbous chin (which is good)

I agree about the lighting, that edit looks as though her face has been illuminated with a torch.

I think your 'dream' is probably what a lot of current developers are working to try and acheive. Its still a long way off though.

I'm having a pretty bad spell with my GF so ill try to get back to work on it as soon as i can.

Do you mean GF as in Guardian Force (from FFVIII)? If so, then you rock!

No i'm afraid i meant girlfriend, my GFs are well trained and summon when necessary 

Hey everyone thanks for the feedback, i know there was a few niggles in the preview but nothing major.

Sorry about the lack of a promised update, im having a pretty bad spell with my GF so ill try to get back to work on it as soon as i can.

Just to let you know im back in business, will post some work tonight hopefully 

Dont forget to download this months inventory at:

www.justadventure.com

Sorry if that sounds like blatant plugging, but it has the preview of the game, which has some good stuff on the background of the game for those interested.

you need to reduce the size of his shoulders, they look abnormally big. apart from that good job.

Looks promising but i think you need to define a style, the screenshots youve posted look like theyre from 3 different games.

wow, looks great, ony thing i noticed is that on the rain screen, the rain seems to be in 'rows'.

weeeeeee!!!

i like it 

Hey man, thanks, im still debating on weather or not to do the video, so it hasnt really been started yet. Perhaps i'll run a poll on it and see which people would prefer.

I like it, looks fine as it is tbh. If you do anything more youre in danger of overdoing it id say.

I'm taking a little break from the artwork for a few days, so ill post some stuff later this week. 

Ha! PC Zone all the way.

I dont own a PC.

It is a circus tent, look at the blockbuster outside screen

DOH!!!!! 

The new crew of people running the show over there don't even know what LucasArts stands for metaphorically, they can't remember what MI 1 and 2 are... along with the others.

Well said, i was thinking of writing something similar earlier myself. 

Nice screens, but you need to change the ariel font on the 'lackluster' screen, it just looks as if youve picked the 1st font youve seen. Try to find a font similar to BLockbusters, to give it some brand association. Also the babers could do with a little more detail, it looks a little too much like a circus tent at the moment.

Download it NOW, or ill start killing puppies....

and old paintings iirc.

Oil paintings

Yes well.. Im not an english speaker,,,,,, so... you reffear to oil painting scanning as.... "go to paris, steal the mona lisa, scan it,,, photoshop it, and WALLA! "Monkey island 3, the lost story" , (yeah, Guybrush Threepwood died in Mi2, the rest is just imitation.) + "loom 2: family becomes a goose stew." ?
So lucas arts, painted canvas, and then... SCANNED THEM??? whoa.... they are good!, any way, those scanned canvas used to pixelate... by the way... what is IIRC?, if some one can help me,,, i`ll be pleased, other wise, i will be still reading tutorials.
Thnx

If you scan a piece of coloured art at a high resoloution, and resize it to, say, 320x200, then you'll get this 'pixelated look'. Bear in mind that Monkey Island had a team of proffessional artists though.
