Bethesda Concept Artist Adam Adamowicz Passes Away

Truly tragic for anyone at such a young age to pass away.

Condolences to friends and family

The concept art in the special ed book I got was amazing, this is really sad to hear.

R.I.P. Adam.

That sucks... Fucking cancer.. Find that cure ASAP!

Loved the look of Fallout 3 and Skyrim...

Rest in peace. :(

@buhssuht: Cancer takes plenty of "bad people," it's just that no one unrelated to the person cares.

A very talented man gone too soon. My condolences to his family.

I think they had an interview with him on the Bethesda Podcast last year, he was really passionate about these games. A terrible loss, thoughts with his family.

He was Jewish wasn't he?... Yeah i know, I'm an asshole. RIP duder.

R.I.P. sir. I may not play Bethesda's RPGs (only Bethesda game on my shelf currently is RAGE), but I certainly respect 'em. You did some great work.

He didn't die. He just left for a new job. Jesus and God and Hercules all wanted him to come and design their new places.

HERCULES IS DEAD!?! When did this happen? The Disney movie lied to me!

:(

RIP, good man. As the strong and rich live, the artistic and imaginative die.

Damn, watched the video and saw all the art he generated for Fallout 3. Its mind blowing how well he could draw.

Always a shame to see great talent go. Rest in peace!

RIP bro.

This is sad news. RIP.

RIP

I went through every comment on this so far, just waiting and anticipating that one fuckhole that would say "people die everyday, blah blah blah, who cares, yadda yadda, look at me be a dickbag".

Not a single comment like that to be seen.

Good job, community!

I think the post was deleted.

A man so great they named him twice and added an "owicz" at the end to drive the name home. Now he's in Heaven creating awesome game designs with Jesus.

That's tragic, so young too.

I loved the concept art he produced for Fallout 3 but I feel it wasn't until Skyrim that his vision could really be seen in the world. He may have died young but what a magnificent legacy to leave behind.

Cancer is a tragic thing. I thank Adam for his contributions at Bethesda to make some of the greatest games ever made. He's touched the lives of many people, if anyone truly enjoyed fallout 3 and Skyrim's environment and over all tone to the world then you owe it to him. And I owe you my thanks Adam. R.I.P.

This is really sad news, He was an amazing artist.

R.I.P :'(

=(

RIP :( God what a shame, he had talent and a half.

RIP, I had no idea he was a large part of the genius behind bethesda. Skyrim and Fallout 3 have brought me many hours of enjoyment. Sad to see such a talented man go, but his legacy will live on.

Fuck you cancer.

Condolences. It's a real tragedy.

Fallout 3 and Skyrim have absolutely amazing concept art that seems to have really given direction to the entire vibe and overall direction for those games. I got the artbook for both games, and there's really distinct and interesting approaches to both games, where playing the game you can tell they knew what they wanted to shoot for early on.

What a tragic loss. Rest in peace, Mr. Adamowicz, your work will be forever engraved in the minds of 10 million plus Dragonborns.

I guess some heavenly host needed a trainer so he could level up his art skills to 100.

Fuck...I really loved his artstyle and just incredible creativity. Being that he is the concept designer of my favorite game ever, and an amazing one at that, he will be missed. RIP, Adam.

Such a shame. At least a part of him has become immortalized in the work he did on such important games.

I've watch and admired his work many times and he is one of those who inspired me the most as an artist.

Rest in peace, Adam.

That's sad news, RIP. He'll live on in his work.

Heard this first on Reddit, knew it would be here soon. Damn shame really.

42 is young. I'm sad for his family and friends. He was talented and I'm glad he got create fantastic art for a living.

..bet he dropped some mad loot.

FU Cancer.

R.I.P

Ah man :(

I always enjoyed the look of those games. R.I.P. Adam.

Rest in peace.

Wow, he is a very talented man. Rest in peace.

Great, now I'm sad :(

Rest In Peace, good sir.

That's too bad, RIP, your art has given many people so much joy

First Whitney Houston and now Adam. Darn, what a lousy way to start my day.

RIP Adam Adamowicz.

RIP duder.. Cancer fucking sucks. My uncle lost his battle against cancer earlier this month. Worst feeling in the world knowing you can't do anything to help. Here's to finding a cure to cancer really soon!

My deepest condolences to his family
