Photo challenge
Hello friends!, Lately the community has been full of interesting challenges, but not as much as this new theme that consists of creating our own wallpaper for our PC.
So I really love the concept of being able to photograph our favorite video games and make them shine on our monitor, I have definitely chosen to participate using some of the most classic video games like Mortal Kombat, I hope you like my backgrounds...
To start my journey, I downloaded Mortal Combat II, which works for me because I want a retro style in my wallpapers. Once I had it installed, I started recording the screen, because this would make my job easier when I started taking screenshots later...
Something interesting that I saw was the logo in one of the cinematics of the introduction in the video game, so I took a photo of the logo that has a fierce dragon, thus creating my first background.
I also made a screenshot to the name of the game that has a retro pixel art style, so that you could better appreciate how the wallpaper looks, I have hidden all the desktop icons.
It was time for the mortal combat, and I was incarnating and playing with the character "Liu Kang", I made a few screenshots and this was the one I decided to choose, because it captures the essence of a bloody fight that is about to start…
This wallpaper is my favorite, because the poses and fighting moves I captured with my camera were epic. Definitely beautiful for those veterans who played it on PlayStation or on the classic machines, in video game arcades...
In my case I have played it on PC lol.
This is "Raiden", one of the most beloved and most powerful characters, see for yourself he just defeated me in this match.
Here I loved the art and designs of some backgrounds in this game, so I took advantage of one of my defeats to create a wallpaper, which has the message "GAME OVER"
Now that I touch on the subject of visual art, well impressive as this video game offered me a great variety of pixel art drawings of some characters, all this while looking at their statistics little Lore. So I got the idea of creating a background using this art that left me impressed as pixel by pixel they created great warriors.
I see that video game programmers of this style work a lot to make these character portraits, so it's my honor to appreciate these works of art that they saved in this installment.
Here is a screenshot of two legends who fought in the arena...
Something important in all this work is that I really entertained myself in the process, because it is something that I let myself express very well as I would like to see a PC of a gamer photographer, finally I would like to thank you for reading and watching.
I'm looking forward to the next one, themed. Good luck to all the participants!
