Thanks parabolee!

1680x1050 version added, see first post.

Also here are two requested (other thread) iPhone versions.

This one below is based on someone else's from here. And I'll admit I kinda rushed it and it doesn't look tot great becasue I only had the small resolution version to work with. Head colours don't quite match the BG. Maybe I'll fix later when I have time, but I prefer the above one anyway.

Whoa, LeChuck looks odd there, like Chuckie from that movie or something.

Also strange name coincidence.

parabolee · 07-10-2009, 02:29 PM

Yeah, no idea where that came from.

***Jeff*** · 07-10-2009, 02:32 PM

Very cool. I just saw the iPhone one that lucasarts posted on their twitter and set it on my touch, but I am about to switch to yours now.

Fealiks · 07-10-2009, 03:17 PM

Their iPhone one looks stupid..

parabolee · 07-10-2009, 03:20 PM

Ah I see this came from LucasArts and they said "For our Monkey fans - an iPhone sized wallpaper. No reason. Wink wink nod nod."

So Monkey Island SE is coming to iPhone for sure then. Very nice, another version I'll buy

What a weird LeChuck though, doesn't match his in game sprite in the face at all.

Fealiks · 07-10-2009, 03:23 PM

From what I remember the in-game sprite's face looks pretty similar to that.

parabolee · 07-10-2009, 03:32 PM

Well now I see it's officially coming to iPhone I decided to make a better or alternative version for my iPhone wallpaper.

Fealiks · 07-10-2009, 03:35 PM

Very nice.

parabolee · 07-10-2009, 03:48 PM

Thanks.

Here is a LeChuck in the SE-

And the weird iPhone version -

Looks like a different face. Different beard shap, different nose, eyes should be mean looking not round holes. Hmmmm.

parabolee · 07-10-2009, 03:57 PM

My quick attempt to make him look closer to his in game sprite -

LordTrilobite · 07-10-2009, 04:29 PM

Where the feck is his mustache?

parabolee · 07-10-2009, 04:31 PM

It would appear that he does not have one in the SE. Shame, but not a big deal. His sprite looks great IMO (although his arms are a little stubby).

***Thrik*** · 07-10-2009, 06:09 PM

He didn't have one in close-ups of his head in both MI1 and MI2, so I think it was a fair decision for them to not include it in the SE. More weird is the fact that they chose to give him human-like skin in the SE, although I do think it looks great.

The games are so inconsistent that it's probably not worth worrying about. EMI's ghost LeChuck is like a mix between the original and the SE, with a moustache and the CMI coat thrown in for good measure — a depiction I also really liked!

Well I'll be a monkey's uncle. Of course he didn't lol. When I looked at the new sprite I thought that too, probably because the sprite in MI1 looks like he has.

And I guess they gave him the skin because his MI1 sprite also looked like he had skin.

Thank you so much!

I'm replacing my MI3 wallpaper on my phone with this one right now.

Irfaan · 07-11-2009, 12:19 PM

Thanks a lot for the 1680x1050 version! :-D

In fact, do you know what will also be...awesome! A 480 x 272 version for PSP!

But it's o.k lol I don't want to stress you out or anything :-D

Fealiks · 07-11-2009, 12:23 PM

I think the red nose was a joke that got left out in future renditions of LeChuck. Since the close-up of his head in MI1 shows that his face is skeletal, the red nose is probably a stick-on plastic nose to stop him from feeling inadequate

(he is a no-nosed pirate)

***Thrik*** · 07-11-2009, 12:44 PM

That's an explanation I've heard for the nose before — can't think where though! It must have been in some old interview or something.

LordTrilobite · 07-11-2009, 12:50 PM

Pegnose LeChuck.

Ghost Down · 06-16-2010, 06:10 PM

Could you do a 1920x1080 version? With maybe the original face if possible?

Thanks in advance1
