Art inspired by Fallout 4 - 1 Bodywork

The artwork in this article was inspired by the computer game Fallout 4 which is set in a post-apocalyptic world. The game surrounds a survivor of the devastation in search of his abducted child and vengeance for a murdered wife. So far, so clichéd and oh so hetero, but the styling of the official game artwork (above and below) featuring blue, ass-revealing uniforms has inspired a great deal of homo-erotic fan art.

Another feature of the game which has driven much gay creativity was the Power Armour which could be used for especially difficult tasks and protection in hostile environments i.e. Fallout from the holocaust.

 

Naurdor - Bernard, The Engineer

Naurdor's splendid re-imagining of the armour here has a gloriously steam-punk feel, reflecting the fact that the only men still capable of servicing these monstrous gadgets are quirky, old-fashioned engineers like Bernard here. 

SavrenX - Power Armour

This contribution by SavrenX demonstrates the sheer bulk of the outfit. 

How can a man still look sexy in all that gear?

Note the sinister mist.

Iamnotavirgin - Power Armour 1

The bulky armour also inspired this more fanciful imagining from Iamnotavirgin. 

His catwalk-style modelling pays tribute to the versatility of the armour's power system. 

The breast plate here does not quite cover the warrior's pecs - admittedly they would need a lot of covering up - but it looks like his muscles are out-growing the armour. Maybe that's down to mutations wrought by the radiation and pollution (hinted at here by the pink sky).

We also discover (unsurprisingly) that it's sensible to wear as little clothing as possible underneath the armour.  Even in this bikini combo you can see he's sweating profusely. He's wisely retained the armoured jock plate and I'm sure the knee pads will come in useful too.

Iamnotavirgin - Power Armour 2

Seen from the rear the coverage is even more sparse, 

The thong avoids VPL when he's in his tight blue uniform (see top picture).

SavrenX - Dwarfed by his Armour

SavrenX shows a man dwarfed by his armour. 

The wry logo on it's breast plate pops up periodically in this art. 

A black joke on the disaster that has befallen this world. 

The under-armour gear is shown as a lightweight alternative - helmet and jock essentially, 

plus the essential impedimenta of soldiering - harness, gun belt, gloves and boots.

Sit - Personal Protection

Both SavrenX (above) and Sit (here) show men wearing astronaut helmets.

They give protection from the sometimes poisonous nature of the atmosphere

evidenced here by a pea-souper hue. 

Apparently bare skin offers adequate protection from the gloopy stuff on his arm,

It seems to permeate the air here and deposit itself on passers by. 

Perhaps it's that substance that has eaten away his suit.

Sit - A Clear Day

If so it's been highly effective.

I've always thought Astronaut helmets look sexy.

Pairing them with a metal groin protector is inspired.

Even this world looks a better place on a clear day,

But walking to the pub must be pretty depressing.

Sit - An Evening in the Bar 1

But when you get there, this happens!

This world is populated by some very odd characters.

Sit - An Evening in the Bar 2

I'm not sure if this Military/Chippendale combination counts as mutation.

But there's something quite sinister about this character in his shades and peaked cap.

Sit - An Evening in the Bar 1

The reveal when he jettisons his jock does not dispel that strange feeling.

Submissive-Aggressive? Or just up front and open?

The gleaming highlights are quite clever.

Suggestive of magical properties.
