Camp Golf Painting

Post » Mon Sep 08, 2008 1:02 am

In south wing, ground floor of Camp Golf building (to your left as you enter double doors, room with the fireplace and storage shelving), there is a painting of a richly dressed man standing just in front of what appears to be a giant robot. I'm speculating that this man is Mr. House. At least, the man in the painting resembles the image House displays of himself on the screens at Lucky 38. And incidentally, I think they both look vaguely like the voice actor for House, René Auberjonois.

Yes, it's Mr. House

Fun Fact: It's a mock up of a famous Howard Hughes photograph of Hughes behind his work. Hughes is a main draw of inspiration of Mr. Houses character.

Huh, I guess I was forgetting that Liberty Prime was a consortium project of Robco and General Atomics. But the painting's feet don't look at all like the actual in-game LPrime in FO3. A prototype?

Well Liberty Prime itself was a prototype, so the feet in the painting may be an earlier incarnation of the prototype than the one we endure in Fallout 3.

The painting probably shows the mock up that is always built before prototyping begins to display the concept envisaged.

Wooden mock ups have a habit of appearing at motor shows showing what designers have in mind.
