    Fallout 2’s Rejected ‘Childkiller’ Icon Is, Uh, Whoa …

    Fallout 2’s Rejected ‘Childkiller’ Icon Is, Uh, Whoa …-340x_view_320200_1-.jpg

    This image was unused and the only Vault Boy image to ever be cut from Fallout 2. (I’m sure you can figure out why) I remember when I got the request to do a perk illustration for “child Killer” that there would be no way to keep in from being offensive. I mean really! How do you make an illustration of “child killer” and keep it from being offensive? Anyway for some reason, I thought this was the least offensive way to do it. I have no idea what i was thinking. Even the designer who requested it realised it was a bad idea, so we nixed it. Looking back on it now, I can’t believe I drew this.

    Because it's hilariously inappropriate.

    I just hope Conroy doesn't get linked to it and then adds GU to the filter.
