He actually makes a sarcastic joke in Tales about how people think he's younger than he actually is:
Show spoiler
I think Nipperkin says something along the lines of "you remind me of me when I was your age" and Guybrush says (roughly) "What was that, a few weeks ago?" rolling his eyes.
these Guybrushes KILLED ME! If they remade MI2 in Curse style I think I'd die of happiness and then ressurect myself to play it... (Though not sure many would agree with me.) Still I'd be happy with a remake in the vein of SoMI... Or even just rescans of the original artwork for higher resolution would be fantastic!
Haha, this probably doesn't belong here, but maybe some here may get some enjoyment out of my rendition of the Guybrush failspitting sprite:
Elaine and LeChuck coming soon.

I totaly agree and I too would die!

I dunno Guy.brush keeps telling me I made Guybrush too young in my AV
I dont think he looks to young. I acctually think that guybrush from MI2 looks too old to fit his characters personality. But he is younger there than he is in TOMI and the one from TOMI has more charm to his look that MI2's guybrush.

MI2 Guybrush is the best Guybrush there is, period.
I think MI2's Guybrush is the best Guybrush too, although I totally love TMI and CMI Guybrush too.
Nice work SyntheticGerbil. It looks like it came straight from a picture book.
What are the technique's you used?
I don't think he looks too old. Maybe just the hairs on his arms.
His face just looks like it's concentrating really hard.

That's just put a massive grin on my face. Bring on LeChuck and Elaine.
You mean the way the sea stays steady as a rock and the buildings keep washing up and down? Yes I thought that was odd.
Thanks guys for the nice words, I really do appreciate it. I do tend to make everyone old and haggard, though. Hah, oh well.
The technique was just a scanned pencil drawing cleaned up in Photoshop and painted with a wacom tablet.
I made the Elaine sort of how I would stylize here in her MI2 look, not really drawing from CMI or later for inspiration (or really the SMI closeups for the matter). So your mileage may vary on whether it really looks like her or not. Probably doesn't.
She's in a bikini though.
LeChuck from Mexico later tonight hopefully!

How come I've never seen your artwork before SynthGerbil? Shame on you for hiding you talents.
Not sure about the costume, seems a bit gratuitous for my tastes, but very impressive nonetheless.

Heh, looks fine to me, but then I'm something of an unwashed artistic heathen. Maybe we can play spot the difference if you upload a new version.
