| The
science fiction movie Blade Runner, based on the
story "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep" by
Philip K. Dick, is my favorite movie of all time.
I had not seen any work derived from this movie on
the
WinCustomize site, so I decided to undertake it
myself. I hope you enjoy this. A lot of
work has gone into creating a really high quality
skin suite, that is optimized to use very little
system resources. Click on any thumbnail image
for a larger version of the image with more detail.
Links with an * by them will take you to the
WinCustomize site to download them. As usual,
pretty much everything got approved but my
wallpaper. I withdrew the two bootskins with
images directly from the movie, but they are
available here. |
Credits:
Any image with a stylized font is using the Blade
Runner font. Any image with a police spinner
used the 3DS Max mesh created by Sean Kennedy in the
rendering. I'll notate which works include
components by these artist with the symbol after
their name.
