Whenever there's a post apocalyptic setting in a videogame or movie or whatever it ends up being a boring brown/gray wasteland. I'd love for it to be more like this. I guess the 'overgrown' look is something that would gradually emerge after humans have been gone for a more extended period of time, maybe a few hundred years.

It'd only take a couple of decades, most likely, unless the apocalypse really hosed up the entire ecosphere - look up photosets of Pripyat or the other abandoned places round Chernobyl to see how fast the wilderness comes back.

When you look at Pripyat the vegetation has encroached into a lot of areas, but there aren't forests growing on top of buildings and stuff. The structure of the buildings is pretty much intact. I think this level of overgrowth is a much longer-term sort of affair.

Here's a cool progression:

This exact thought occurred to me when I saw that airliner picture. Maybe the terminal is flooded and the water is coming in through the jetway? As for the Tokyo Big Sight, I've got nothing.

Maybe it rained recently and it takes a while for the full plane to drain out?

You know, the game that reminds me most of those pictures is probably the early stages of Portal 2. And yeah, that kind of overgrowth over a whole landscape'd be a much more interesting post-apocalyptia.

There is something about these classical style of Sci-Fi images that I find particularly awe-inspiring. They seem to have a sense of vastness and strangeness that I don't get so much from the more modern pieces (although I like many of them as well).

Look at the dates on those images :ssh:

. You're right though, that's the exact reason I love Manchu's illustrations.

Here's his blog if you want to see more.

Did anyone ever find a way to purchase prints from Manchu's (aka Philippe Bouchet) art? He seems to be a difficult person to Google; all I can find is that he has a book called "Manchu Starships". But I would love to hang some of this stuff on my wall...
