Fallout 3 Concept Art

7-07.01_man.in.power.armor.2_fullface.jpgFew days ago I’ve found somewhere on the web a link to a web folder with many cool Fallout 3 pictures.

Fallout 3 is an action role-playing game released by Bethesda Game Studios, and is the third major game in the Fallout series. I kinda like the concept, and find the graphic design absolutely stunning.

Fallout draws from 1950s pulp magazines, science fiction and superhero comic books, all rooted in Atomic Age optimism of a nuclear-powered future, though gone terribly awry by the time the events of the game take place. The technology is retro-futuristic, with various Raygun Gothic machines such as laser weaponry and boxy Forbidden Planet-style robots. Computers use vacuum tubes instead of transistors, architecture of ruined buildings feature Art Deco and Googie designs, energy weapons resemble those used by Flash Gordon, and what few vehicles remain in the world are all 1950s-styled. Fallout’s other production design, such as menu interfaces, are similarly designed to resemble advertisements and toys of the Atomic Age. Advertising in the game such as billboards and brochures has a distinct 1950s motif.
Anyway some cool pics.

Nocturnus Lightroom Preset

nocturnusI usually take photos in low light conditions, especially at night. And the places I like the most are usually very dark streets, with just a small light lighting up the scene.. just give a look to the photoblog to get what I mean..

Anyway, I’ve decided to release a Lightroom preset I use for this kind of shots (very dark shot with just a light): Nocturnus.

I’ve just used this preset for my last photo on ReallyJapan.com, and I can assure you it works pretty well, just apply the preset on  dark street shots!
