SOMEONE HANDLE VIBE SHEETS PLEASE

I have done a million and a half concepts for the pieces I wanted to do this week, and am being thoroughly smacked around by my perspective homework for the week.

We need to piece together the vibe pictures by tonight!

MORE REF!

Here's some more stuff for you guys as Remi's requested.

ps. I'm still looking for the rest of the stuff on the list.

 Cleveland, Ohio.

Drugstores-inside and outside.

I thought this would be really good for rubble reference. It has dust clouds, burning buildings. The San Francisco earthquake of 1906.

These are some hotels from the outside. There is also a picture of a receptionist at a hotel desk.

These are taken from a film I was watching online. A silent movie that filmed San Fran in the 1930s.

As an added bonus I was looking through a old movie blog that I follow on tumblr (http://oldhollywood.tumblr.com/). These are all movie screenshots (1930s and 1940s) that I found were a bit off an chilling. Maybe something that people in the 1940s used for horror. Alfred Hitchcock  is a good ref if you want to explore this further. also if you look at the old hollywood blog and click "archive" at the top they categorize it by era. 

I'll post more soon! Let me know if you need a good site or want me to try and find something specific for you.

Women's Fashion

A very brief history: In the 1940's fabric was rationed. So clothing became much more simple and practical. After the war there was a style made started by Coco Chanel called "the new style"(1947) that became the new fashion silhouette for the next ten years.

The site that I found these on also made black silhouettes of some of the designs from above. I though this could be useful to some.

Old Movie About Oil

I found this pretty neato. Diesel power  from a 1930s POV.

Here's some images from it.

War Posters and Environment Refs

Here are some interesting posters for WWI and WWII. Maybe we could alter some of them for our own propaganda for the game. Like "conserve oxygen" etc. Just some ideas.

More of them are here:

WWI Posters

WWII Posters

Also I was flipping through shorpy.com and I found some interesting pictures that were in the timeline/related to our game.

Architecture, Hairdos and More!

Howdy folks,
while concepting, I found that putting the 50's twist on many of the objects was becoming problematic, so, to save myself some time---- and you too- I have compiled a bunch of 50's stuff to put through your mental filter while sketching.

Many of these objects would reflect a eutopia compared to our story, so the filtering will be quite extreme
(corroding chrome, torn clothes, etc.) but needless to say, this will be helpful for our endeavors.
