A screenplay by Ted Elliot 19 Aug, 2009, 01:42 / 4 comments

On his blog, Steve Purcell has shared a new piece of concept art from the canceled The Curse of Monkey Island animated movie, in pre-production at some point in 2000. Sorry, by that I mean "speculative piratey piece of potential film entertainment."

The art depicts LeChuck staring with unbridled emotion at Tia Dalma's musical locket some sort of weird seashell.

Update: We caught these previously unseen character designs (for CMI the game - yes, Purcell did some early sketches for that!) from last month too, right?

    I love this stuff. The concept Purcell did for the unmade movie are some of his best works.

    Was going to post 'em later on, with the finished painting.

    Designs remind me of Insecticide.

    All I know is that I absolutely LOVE the Tall, Svelte, Afro'd Voodoo Lady he drew way back when. Could've USED his redesign.
