Favorite Fallout Concept Art

This is my favorite piece of concept art for Fallout. I like how it implies a bos in power armor is a huge threat, and when finally taken down, is a huge victory since the slavers pose around him.

Anyways, what's your favorite concept art?

Yeah, I love that one. It also looks like that BoS guy would be huge standing upright, and as you said, implies it's a great victory taking one down since they pose like they just taken an elephant down. Also there's the two mounted .50 cals which I miss in the game. It's too bad final product never looks as good as their concept art :/

That one is probably my favorite, mole rats FTW! I also like http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20101002082405/fallout/images/7/73/Conceptart-thestrip-B.jpg a lot, and http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20110323011214/fallout/images/c/cc/Legion_Massive_Black_7.jpg. That last one proves that they had bigger plans for the Legion but ran out of time. :( http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/File:FNV_concept_art_Hoover_Dam.jpg is just cool looking, and I like the rain storms in the background. Maybe they planned to have changing weather conditions?

Yeah, the legion looks several times cooler in the concept arts than in the game. But as I said, that is what happens with most concept art - never gets nearly as cool in the game...

http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20110904011550/fallout/images/b/bc/Character_dude.jpg & http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100703075731/fallout/images/d/d7/Factory.jpg are pretty cool I think. Give off a sense of eeriness and of course both are threatening.


And YM=MB, no, it's a Big Horner. There are horns sticking out of the head.

Ah now I see it. It just seemed it's head was smaller than it is in game.

No zoom in with something, it is a big horner. The horns blend in with the background until I looked at it closely.

Hard to say. Love the original FO concept art. BGS did a good job too on 3's art like the one OP shows.

I advise you all to also check out New Vegas's which was contracted to an outside group. Black something.

The legion pieces thrive on atmosphere.

The guy closest to us also has a nice outfit which I would have liked in the game, closest I can get is the roving trader outfit I guess... but still... that aviator cap...

I agree . . . is that supposed to be Novac? Would have been cool to see different manners of dynamic travellers out and about. At least on the roads. Sometimes the concept art makes me really wish that the next game will be more similar.

http://images.wikia.com/fallout/images/c/cc/Wasteland.jpg I love how it's almost subtle, with the building looking lonely but not entirely unusual, then you notice the burnt up trees and abandoned roads the the whole area starts to feel pretty oppressive.

http://images.wikia.com/fallout/images/e/e2/FO3_capitol_concept1.jpgfor the opposite reason as the first. It's just a straight up ha-ha-humanity-is-screwed punch to the face :)

Ah yeah. Good artists.

Also I remember that pre-release piece.

It really got my hopes up that there'd be general/interesting travellers on the roads to and from NCR territory and Vegas and an overall makeup that NV would of made the world much less static than it turned out.

Oh well.



This one, I love how it's almost subtle, with the building looking lonely but not entirely unusual, then you notice the burnt up trees and abandoned roads the the whole area starts to feel pretty oppressive.

Nice. Good pieces. Wonder if those were Adam's or BGS also had a contractor alongside.

If Fallout 3 got anything right that it was aiming for, it was the bleak soul-svcking atmosphere.

But again that last piece really hints at more reaction and wallowing from people abound. I would of found it interesting if I saw in my travels barely alive scroungers looking hopelessly toward the Capitol building. Maybe I could discuss interesting philosophies or the old-world with them. Or tell them to move on from the ashes, the old-world damned themselves and we suffer for it.

Same goes for the first Paradise Falls piece from the OP. The Slavers have immense influence in the area yet we don't really see or get to interact/hinder with the network, simple slaving jobss and The Pitt aside.


I'm looking for that richness from Fallout 4. But I'd be happy just the same if BGS used their good world design and combined it with the prowess 1 and 2 shows. If that's too much just measure up to NV and we'll gladly show our appreciation towards you for it.


But I'm getting off topic.

Here's some MB patrol/veteran ranger designs. Practically screams, "Badass."

I think NMA has a decent cache of NV concept art as well.

Agreed. It definitely felt like most of the settlements were just barely hanging on by their bloody fingernails. I loved the desperate atmosphere.
