I'm pretty sure I don't have any rights to it. I'm a thief. :dev7: That alleged concept art certainly seems to have a GF kind of thing going on. Probably only because it's drawing on the same source. The 'description' could pass for a documentary....  [Read More]

Brilliant? I'd be stupid to even imply that I agree with that. I do agree that a lot of fan efforts start with high ambitions and then quickly peter out. It's hard not to seem brilliant in comparison. I suspect a lot of fan projects begin without any...  [Read More]

Thanks. For making me feel old. (Actually, I lie. I never feel old.) Mikkel, for the record, did the work on the epub conversion. I was having trouble with that on my own, and he volunteered to do it. I'm the only one responsible for the novel itsel...  [Read More]

With help from Mikkel Rasmussen (meaning, he did all the work), there is finally an e-book version of the Grim Fandango novel. It's in the epub format, so it's compatible with any e-book reader that supports that format. For the others, calibre (htt...  [Read More]

The Dirt Nap poster and sproutella logo spring to mind. And there's some fairly good fan art over at The DOD (http://www.grim-fandango.com/), but not at very high resolution....  [Read More]

I actually tried to do that on the fresco parts in Gimp once. I could never get it right, probably because I'm a bad judge of perspective (which is probably why I gave up trying to draw when I was young because everything came out looking like a bad...  [Read More]

Now that you say that, I sort of vaguely have the impression that you might possibly be right. Or not. Big help, yeah? It's possibly that if there was a fan version, it might have been on a now-defunct site....  [Read More]

There's one more very good image in the game, and that's the fresco on the ceiling of Domino's office of a woman holding a bird, or cupping a bird in flight...it's hard to tell. But only someone trying to wreck their sanity would try to reproduce it,...  [Read More]

Still, it's not a bad effort. Maybe somebody else can improve on it. That is, someone other than me because I have the graphics skills of Blind Pew....  [Read More]

Really? Never noticed it? Bowlsley leaps through it when he 'escapes' from his lab. Anyway, great job on the poster. Who cares if it's not perfect. Now, how about the Blue Casket poster? :thmbup1:...  [Read More]

This is kind of annoying: I stumbled across a torrent for the novel using a private tracker. I can't object to the torrent itself, of course, but I don't like it being used as a means to harvest email addresses. Nothing can be done about it, I suppos...  [Read More]

I'll start by getting this off my chest: IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE 'YOHA', NOT 'YO HO'!!! I feel better now. I think The Adventurer is right that the middle section seems to slow things down, but I don't think it's all that bad. I think mainly the pro...  [Read More]
