This document includes all the art that will be used and concept art of any new art needed to support our new features. Also, we describe the visual look, the mood and the intention behind the graphics for our game Fallout Strategy. It explains the game’s overall art style as well as providing descriptions, concept art and screenshots for all the heads up displays, character models, in-game assets and grounds. Also, this document is created with the intention of setting our artistic goals and to have an art guide when making the game.

We have included all the sprites that we are going to use here. Including characters, grounds, assets, and buildings.

Art Style

Although Fallout was supposedly in the year 2161, it has a unique style that captured the 1920s to 1940s flavour that has always been a visual undercurrent of the Fallout series, and a high-tech futurism set that covered the city's large and modern structures and skyscrapers.

We would like to do a RTS that follows that Fallout vibe and give the feeling of being in that post-nuclear world.

Characters

We have 4 different factions with it's corresponding ranged, melee and gatherer unit.

Analysis of the mood and the intention behind the graphics.

We would like to create a rich, varied and detailed post nuclear world. We set our goal to have a fluid experience, making a world divided into four factions taken from the Fallout game (Brotherhood of Steel, Super Mutants, Ghouls and Vault Dwellers).

In order to make the world feel real, we have tried to avoid the repetition of environments by taking different assets, buildings and grounds for each type of faction. Architectural variety is important to depict a world. We included some buildings with diferents architectural styles, each with a purpose to represent a unique faction.

The colors of the characters, buildings and grounds are painted in bold colors drawn from a 1920s to 1950s palettes. They contrast sharply with the futuristic vibe. This mash-up of old and new results in a rich and eclectic urban jungle for the player to explore.

We tried to honor the aesthetics and essence of the original Fallout's. With a predominance of green and brown tones, simulating a post-nuclear war world.
