Hey guys.
I want to show you my latest work which I dedicated to Fallout as it is one my favorite games of all time. It's actually 12 years passed since I played it for the first time xexe... Anyway I've never done any fan arts before, but since I always liked the concept of Advanced Power Armor from F2 I finally decided to make one myself. I started to collect various references and pics from net. There is not much regarding the APA to be honest, so I mostly used the main cover of APA which you see in the main game window. Of course I got the wallpaper version which was big and clear enough to capture the concept. So that and some more screens from the game "talk screens" where you can see APA was all I had. Obviously I had to improvise a lot so I'm really sorry if some places of my version looks off the original. I actually wasn't very strict to original while making it, I tried to improvise with respect to original. In the end I decided to make 4 stills featuring the armor. You can see first 2 and a close up without post. I'm currently finishing another 2 as they are almost done. One of them will show almost whole armor to the knee level, so stay tuned, some updates very soon. And I hope you will like it as much as I enjoyed making it.
Here is the first pic I called: "Cold Encouters":
