More original Vault Boy art on eBay

Post by King of Creation »

<strong>[ Person -> Images ]</strong> - More info on <a href="http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Brian Menze">Person: Brian Menze</a>

<p><strong>Update:</strong> Looks like you won't be able to get them after all. From Brian, via Ausir:</p>
<blockquote>
<p><em>I apologize, but I have been informed that I do not have the right to sell the images and was asked to take the auctions down. I apologize for any inconvenience or confusion this may have caused.</em></p>

<p><span style="text-decoration: line-through;">Following up what we <a href="../../forums/viewtopic.php?t=23424">reported on yesterday</a>,<em> Fallout 2</em> artist <strong>Brian Menze</strong> has posted more original Vault Boy drawings up on eBay. From Brian:</span></p>
<blockquote>
<p><span style="text-decoration: line-through;"><em>The first thing you'll ask yourself is "are these real?". Yes they are. Both are one of a kind and completely original. The second thing you'll ask yourself is "why are the faces missing?". Well, back when I worked on the project, I decided that the best way to keep the character "on model" was to use a "master" vault boy head to add later on the computer after I scanned in the body. This seemed the best and easiest way to keep the character looking good without having to make sure his eyes, mouth and hair were perfect each time I drew him.

The page is an 8.5 x 11 sheet of paper containing two Vault Boy images measuring roughly 4x5 inches each. Because these are original pieces you'll find the pages sometimes with slight creases, pencil marks, erasings and other slight imperfections. I will, of course, sign the page and add an original head sketch and personalize it for you, if you wish. I hope that's enough information, but if not please feel free to email me with any questions you may have.</em></span></p>
</blockquote>
<p><span style="text-decoration: line-through;">The new auctions are for <a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/VAULT-PIP-BOY-ORIGI ... nder/Sword of Despair</a> and <a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/VAULT-PIP-BOY-ORIGI ... 0f7">Demon Spawn/Guardian of the Wastes</a>. Bidding ends on 19 November, so keep an eye on them if you're interested.</span></p><p>Spotted @ <a href="http://fallout.wikia.com">The Vault</a></p>

Where do you think Bethesda got the info? There is a slim possibility that they actually look at our website while massaging Pete Hines 500 pound butt cheeks.
