Stumble across a picture of a place or bit of terrain real or otherwise you think would make a great Post Apoc terrain peice or inspire the loons who build terrain on herer? Would you like to share this with everyone?

The photo or picture can be from places you have visited, random internet browsing, movie scenery, Game screenshots or whatever.

The rules are simple (no I am not going to say - there are No rules!), No porn, a bit of a blurb about the picture, no - non thread comments allowed (we will be forced to delete these if they get too many!).

These are some screenshots from Stalker Clear Sky:

This is the basement of a ruined hospital on the outskirts of Piryat.

Posted Image
Here is the view peering out across the ground floor of the ruin.

Posted Image
This is the upper floor of the gallery.

Posted Image
Here is a view down the gallery. Sorry its not any better - I had some crazy cultists shooting at me! Ahh look the sun has come out!

Posted Image
Peering down the stairs.

Posted Image
This is another gallery in the same hospital with lots of rubble. The sun has gone in and its quite dark here!

part of the front of the raider base in FoT mission 3. The snake statue would look awesome on a board.

A F3 screen shot, but with a good feel for a deserted highstreet

Very fallout, although perhaps better suited to AC57 than some settings...

I drive around a lot for work and visit many industrial sites. I have recently been taking lots of pics which I have no problem posting up :) Should get around to it soon!

So far they have been pretty awesome! Maybe I should be playing Fallout: Tactics again :)

Personally, I find industrial architecture really interesting.

Also... check out some of these sites. I find the photography to be aesthetically appealing as it is, they also double as "inspiration" for Post Apoc concepts:

http://www.abandoned-places.com/

http://www.opacity.us/

I lifted them from: http://www.ironhands.com/necro.htm - probably one of the best terrain builders out there. Sounds ridiculous I know, so I'll narrow it down: he's an awesome scavenger. Turns junk into amazing pieces. Miniature painting doesn't appear to be his forte but he has some wacky conversions too. I really enjoy his website :) Friendly guy, too!

Also found this: http://www.flickr.com/groups/decay/

Don't forget that Reavers are still raiders of a type, and they were awesome!

I bought that game the other day! Nice feel to it, some great ideas for buildings and generally everything to do with PA... found the controls to be a bit awkward though. Those Tactics pics are awesome... must be further than I've been in it :)

If you think the Raiders have a hard time what about the poor Brahmin :P

Which game - the first one? Its the best IMO and if you like ruined Indusrial terrain you will love it. I think its one reason that I like it. Another STALKER shot from Cordon.

The tactics shots are from the second bunker's 1st/2nd mission (Macomb) - I really must go back to the early missions and try to dig out more eye candy. I'll probably play it through to the end now, and then go back before the last mission...
