Title: Fanart
Post by: Dave37 on January 11, 2010, 20:00
Prior to hearing about Planet Mule I created some M.U.L.E. fanart. Here are the low resolution versions of my fanart drawings. You can download the full resolution versions of these images, and view my other art at http://daemon37.deviantart.com/

My images might be too large for the forum window, in that case just right-click and choose "View Image" to see the whole picture. Also, if anyone else has some fanart please post it here. I'd love to see it!  ;D

These are really great!
Each picture transports a certain mood of the game very well!

Hilarious stuff like the mule arcade in the bar or the different languages saying "NADA" in the auction  ;D

Hehe, nice! I really like how you interpreted the auction system "literally" with the lines on the floor  :)

Thanks! I'm just happy to find people who like M.U.L.E. as much as I do.  ;D

As for the auction picture, that one required the most thought and planning out of all of them (except maybe my designs for the wumpus, which I am still not too happy about). In the game, the auction is just so abstract that it was really hard to imagine what it would look like in person. My favorite of these will always be the first one however, the bar fight.

Spectacular Dave... really good.
Indiana Wampus and the Kingdom of the Crystite Skull...  should be the title of that last one.  hehe

Nice work! I only remembered the bar scene for some reason. And the wampus looks like a wampus to me. In fact I can't think of a better looking wampus.

...the wampus looks like a wampus to me. In fact I can't think of a better looking wampus.

I went through a few different designs but my main goals were:

1) Mountain dweller
2) Fast moving
3) Semi-intelligent

The result was a hill-billy with 4 legs. My original designs made him look more like a rabbit.

Here's a new Muleart. This one was motivated by the warm reception I received here.
Hope you like it!

Hmmm.  Interesting to say the least.  I think dad would have gone for the bar scene.

Thanks! That means a lot coming from you.

The bar-scene is my favorite. It was my first one in the series and I spent a lot of time just thinking about it before I even started drawing. I think it really captures the essence of M.U.L.E..

Haha... love that the pirates are green. :)
My favorite is a tie between the bar and the store bidding.  They're a hoot!

Hehe, even got the colonist trying to bring a M.U.L.E. into the bar and being shown the door.  Really covered it all well.  I can't think of an aspect at the moment that you didn't get, maybe the drama of a meteorite landing would be a cool art piece!


Title: Re: Fanart
Post by: Dave37 on March 30, 2010, 03:26
Yeah, I've been thinking about drawing stuff like the meteorite strike. But I've been preoccupied with school and other art projects lately. But I do want to do some smaller art based on MULE.

The next MULE artworks that I intend to do are:

1) Flying cat-bugs
2) Bat-lizard
3) Pests eating food

I randomly found this pretty cool MULE fan art, thought I would share it with other MULE fans! I particulary like the 'scenes' of colony life! Good job Androidarts!

 Love the comic, but i have a question about what version of mule these toons are based on. It looks to me like the mules are from the nintendo M.U.L.E. game. And in the "pub" there is a standup version of the nes mule in the background.(title screen)


PS. did you learn mule on the nes? , if so i feel bad...the ai alone ruined that version imo.

Excellent drawings man, cant wait for next comic!


Title: Re: Fanart
Post by: Dave37 on January 13, 2011, 07:45
Here's comic number 2. And no, I first played MULE on the Commodore 64... I think. But I base my fanart on the NES version, because I like its art style the best.

Title: Re: Fanart
Post by: Chuckie Chuck on January 14, 2011, 04:43
Does is make her want to drag you off to bed DM? j/k

I like the arson attempt at the end.  Should have had a comments related to that though...

"They'd destroy all the goods in the store to get an edge on the market."


Title: Re: Fanart
Post by: MuleSizeMe on January 14, 2011, 05:08
 How can she drag me away from mule?? I tie myself to the rockingchair, so thats not possible/bj during mule game ...maybe, and thats IF i say so.


Title: Re: Fanart
Post by: fihunts on January 22, 2011, 01:53
Totally awesome!  What would be cool is like when the pirates come, your pirate scene or any event for that matter would splash screen on the game for a moment or two.  I'm sure some people would hate the pirate cartoon before too long.

You know like when you are at the bowling alley, there is a splash of cartoon of what happen.  ie strike split.. etc.

That would be cool

I have no idea what you're talking about. The fires on Irata are an unpredictable, naturally occurring phenomenon.  ;)

He had a freaking GAS CAN SPILLED ON THE STORE WHILE HOLDING A MATCH in comic 2. Furthermore, the fire was most intense WHERE THE GAS CAN WAS!!!
