The powerful storytelling ofThe Last of Ushas seen the franchise become important to many gamers, some of which happen to be talented artists. One such fan ofThe Last of Ushas put their artistic talent to good use, creating a useful prop based on the series.
This is not the first time thatThe Last of Usfans have made real life items themed around Naughty Dog’s beloved series. Earlier this year, a player crafted some adorabledolls based on Joel and Ellie. Countless cosplays have been shared that show players dressing up as various characters, while another fan has gone out of their way to recreate Ellie’s journal in real life. With paintings made, statues customized, and tattoos shown off, fans have shared many unique creations.

However, despite all theLast of Uspoststhat have been shared thus far, Reddit user HermioneDanger has managed to design something that is different from what has come before. They have created a special locker that looks like it comes straight from the series’ post-apocalyptic world, as the brick wall that serves as a backdrop looks completely overtaken by nature. A newspaper with the headline “The Last of Us” can be seen on the ground, while a wanted poster of Marlene is seen on the wall. A wooden palette is another nice touch.
The star of the show is the locker itself, which is extremely detailed. The blue color looks faded and warn, with the artist making sure to leave unpainted sections in certain places to capture a realistic feel. Some vines can be seen creeping across the bottom of the locker, with the label 926 seen on the storage container. TheFireflylogo is also spray painted onto the locker, looking just like some of the graffiti that can be found in the two games. However, what makes the locker special is that it is fully functional.
The locker in question has two shelves that HermioneDanger can use to store their games. While they use the top shelf for someThe Last of Usbooks, adding a bit more decoration to the intricate game holder, the bottom shelf holds three video game cases.The Last of Us 2’s cover artis clearly seen at the front, showing some love for last year’s award-winning title. With the locker being 20x14 inches, it is a lot larger than it looks on first glance, making it a great way to store its creator’s favorite games.
With over 1,400 upvotes and tons of positive comments from fellowThe Last of Usfans - many of which say that they would buy the prop if it was put up for sale - HermioneDanger should be satisfied with the response. Hopefully, this creative prop will inspireNaughty Dogto release something similar during a future Outbreak Day.
