A companion turned into a painting; Who would you choose?

Post » Mon Jan 18, 2016 8:47 pm

What character from Fallout would you want as painting?


-Cait


-Codsworth


-Curie


-Paladin Danse


-Deacon


-Dogmeat


-Hancock


-MacCready


-Nick Valentine


-Piper


-Preston Garvey


-Strong


-X6-88



Or maybe not a character at all? Maybe a scenery?


Or creatures? Brotherhood of Steel? Any ideas?


Thanks ahead of time for your input.

No idea what you're using this for, tbh (art ideas?)



Personally I don't generally like paintings of characters - they don't 'age' as well as scenes representing the overall experience, as they are always 'replaced' by characters from other IPs later. I also get seriously wigged out by pictures of people staring at me - so if it were a shot of someone in-scene (like Nick fixing his hand instead of staring at the viewer) it would be okay, but getting eyeballed by him would be jarring.



That's mostly just 'cause I'm a neurotic mess, though.

That would be a good idea. Collecting portraits of the main characters in game to decorate one of your many settlements. I voted dog meat :goodjob:

Yes it's for art ideas. I will paint things/people from Fallout regardless. I just wanted some insight on what other people would want.


And I totally get what you're saying about the staring thing.

I actually haven't used Curie yet but heard she turns into a human, right? Pretty interesting, I'll have to go find her soon.

She does indeed, and i think it could be great for a painting. But so could Nick and Piper. Its a tough one.

Piper so drunk shes trying to interview a plant


Curie, danse , and nick serving drinks like good toasters should.


codsworth cleaning up hancocks vomit


Dogmeat attacking deacon


Mcready giving preston the finger behind his back.

Pretty much anything with NIck, Hancock, and/or Codsworth in it are a win so far as I'm concerned :D Hope you intend to share 'em here; can't wait to see!

This from a guy/gal who has an avatar of a guy eyeballing me. :P


THIS IS GENIUS! And maybe Sole Survivor (male or female) can be in the center, her head in her hands looking despondent.

Great idea, but I voted for something else. I'd have each follower posed in a scene that depicts their character.


Danse, mid battle, solo, dressed in full power armor, fighting a gang of super mutants charging at him through a hail of mini-gun bullets. It's barrel glowing red hot.


Nick sat at a piano with Sam in a "Gin Joint" as depicted in the classic Casablanca piano scene. We all know he's modelled from Bogart.


Strong smashing waves of ghouls like bowling pins, hurtling them in the air - Hulk style.


Piper splashed across the front page of the Public Occurrences with a breaking story headline.


Cait in any 19th century bare-knuckle boxing ring.


You get the idea. One for each follower.


Would love to be able to unlock these special edition style portraits to hang on your walls.

I did sell a painting of Piper on my Etsy. However, I personally feel like I could do better, I'm going to paint her again.

I'm partial to Piper. I gave her my dead wife's wedding ring, so that basically says it all.

Whoa hey, in my defense, Krieger is looking to the left! I took a screenshot after he averted his eyes to murmer "...not even the other kind, technically."


But yes, that's fair :lol:
