Artist's Comments

My first fanart. I'm quite pleased with the outcome I gotta say.

This is of Monkey Island characters, and of course, Bender. (left to right Bender, Guybrush Threepwood, Murray, and Stan)
I wasn't sure of Otis' last name (for Guybrush's fake ID), so I had to make one up based on his interesting habit.

*Murray's beverage is non-alcoholic tomato juice*

**Pink and purple in this piece were very VERY neccessary**

I have no idea who any of the characters are, bar Bender of course. But nevertheless, the linework is great, colours are really strong and vivid and there's plenty of points of interest that make the whole piece work well.

Meanwhile, is Bender a self portrait of sorts? :D

At first when I was saw this picture, with Murray, and Guybrush and Stan, I was like, "This drawing is awesome." Then I saw Bender....

And it made it the coolest drawing ever.

There's a lot I like about this, so I'm just going to have to make a list:

1. The coloring looks great. A nice cross between your style, and the MI style. Especially the shading on Stan's hands. And you nailed his coat. Isn't it pretty with all the purple?
2. Stan's belt with the money symbol, a really nice touch, and very fitting for the character.
3. Murray's bendy straw, cause otherwise he wouldn't be able to reach his drink, funny! (You even had the line shift a bit reflected through the glass. Nice observation.) And of course he'd drink tomato juice, cause it looks like the blood of his fallen foes.
4. Bender's drunken, eyes half open expression, with his antenna going a little flaccid. What is Bender doing there? I have no idea. I also like to think that Bender frequents bars in completely different universes.

You'd love Monkey Island (shameless to admit, it's a game). Yeah, I can't believe I nailed colouring this in one day. AND guess what, I have been accepted for next year's course. The bloody bastards took so long to let me know. I am so out to celebrate (and maybe MAYBE get drunk) tonight

PS. errr self portrait? not as such. Just my personal idol, more like.

Haha. That was probably the best comment I have ever recieved on any of my drawings, thanks. Although you kinda killed it with the Bender question. I was hoping you'd like it since you reflected me to include Guybrush in this drawing. Originally, it was going to be of a insult-spitting competition with Murray vs the head (from MI1 or was it 2) and Le Chuck as the judge, but I'm no good at drawing monsters, so I went with this concept.

I wanted to have a menu on the right where the poster is to have the name of Murrays drink there (I wanted to call it "Bloody Tom" - let's see if you get why). So cool how you're such a MI fan cuz you get this straight away. And what Bender's doing, is mugging the poor ol Stan (but they never show his wealth, so I wanted to take advantage of it), and all you'll find in his drawers is of course, a bunch of coupons, pamphlets, maps, etc. Maybe I should change Bender's "$" to the actual cash.
The background took me a while to complete since I didn't want to draw anymore, but it seemed like it was lacking details, so on with the black brush.

MI1? boy you're missing out big time. You should play Monkey Island 3, highly recommended, and highly addictive.
Cheers for commentin, Greg
