uuuuhhhh yeah... now THAT is looking sexy... and i don´t mind sounding nerdy here... the wiremesh and the tubing... even framed... many modlers would stop after the wiremesh... but not dave!!! what a way to work!!!
Viktor von Domm wrote:the promlem with this work here is the following needed sanding... which is a bugger with GS...i think for that job milliput or some kneadadite would have been better?
It's very true, but as I've discovered recently, polishing GS with my good new Dremel 300 is very easy and effective. I've used the fine sanding drum first and felt polishing wheel second. The result was quite impressive.
dsteingass wrote:Naa, sands fine. no worries at all. I've never used any of those you are talking about tho Vik.
It's just going to take some time to make it mimic 1950's automotive bodywork.
If you left off the Mesh and Tube detailing the rest would be easily moldable for making multiple casts of the "main" body of the machine.
mxwllmdr wrote:How would you cast the grill and Compression cooler tubing?
Can you?
Does it need to be done seperately for each machine?
Wow, I need one of these......
I think It might have to be done separately for each machine. (I don't think the mesh covering over the tubing would come out right from casting... Ever... In any material... It's just too thin.)
Not sure about the compressor tube. That might be doable, just not the mesh.

Well, that was the period of my childhood and my grandma cooked this soup often... You already knows the reason why The spaghetti were made from the flour of a very low quality, so eating it was close to impossible. But with milk it wasn't that bad. Actually, it was rather tasty.
Oh, I remember those times - my grandpa had to stand in queues for hours in order to get some food. I remember once he accidently broke a package of ten eggs just in front of our flat's door... My father found him sitting on the stairs crying. And grandma grabbed the scoop to collect the broken eggs from the flor of the staircase... Yes, we ate those eggs afterwards.
Man, despite the jokes and all that horrid things we like to talk about modern Russia, it's actually an awesome place in comparison with what it was, say, 20 years ago.
milk soup with noodles or rice... my kids love it... it gives me the wind and that´s why it is seldom on the kitchen table... sweet dish by the way... dave you confuse it with a hearty meal... haven´t you ever heard of milk rice?...more like a dessert to me than an actual meal...
But to the British, a pudding can have MEAT in it! I mean WHAT????
But to me, soup is just soup, I usually have with somehting like a salad, or a snmmich, if I am thinking of a HEARTY soup, I'm thinking Stew, or Goulash....but that's just me.
@ Vic - Yes, but it is deliciously chocolately poo! Yum!
My wife won't even think about eating pudding just for that reason! I don't care what it looks like! If I didn't, I'd never eat tapioca pudding or creamed corn! Or most candy bars for that matter!
LOL...jake you have my fondest empathy for that... the wierdest stuff inside a diaper you get the first time these new earthdwellers poop... totally black...like tar! now that looked weird... ^^
Hey the brits even have non pudding names for some of their puddings, like a "spotted dick" and that instead what we call pudding is custards. they have their blood pudding, and I think they have 20 things they call a pudding, but they are not what we consider an actual pudding.

Ah..... to be young again and in a cold war........
Hey now, I was actually in that cold war at the pointy end! Every time that klaxon went off we were not sure if we were to pull the pins and let the Pershings loose at Russia!/East Germany, etc., Had that actually happened this pleasant cross cultural chat would not be possible and our entire planet would look like
shaso you are absolutly right... it was a given fact that we germans learned in school...if it ever came to nuklear war...germany would be toast... from either side... we were stuck in the middle...
Ah, the reforger exercises. I hated rut detail! We still wound up paying for the tire ruts we left even after trying to fill them back in by hand anytime we went to the "woods" in Germany.
Yes, these images I deal with now as they a part of the FO universe, but as a kid, and even in the Army, these were the images of bad dreams as I saw myself observing the end of all, and living long enough to see it all end like this.
But the Pershings stopped after I got out, and no problem Vik, we were the only guys over there whose job it was to actually NOT want to launch the weapons. We knew if that happened, it was Game Over for everyone!

Sorry, it is just that I was aware of the wacky period of the Cold War, I actually looked for what I could as it interested me as a History buff. I knew already about us Imperialistic capitalist pigs!
No, you're fine. I think it is therapuetic for old men to sit around and wonder aloud why things were the way they were when we obviously all feel the same about how badly it should not have been that way.

Sorry going of track but a couple of pointers , black pudding is pigs blood congealed and some other stuff also a white pudding but contains oats, sausage shaped ate with fry ups. steak pudding is a suet based case mixed with flour (however a pudding is made using the same process minus the meat)
Yorkshire pudding is a batter mix but can be used for sweet or savoury or with sausages mixed in known as toad in the hole, as for steak pudding and pork pie being the same they are very different things, I should know love steak pudding and worked in a pork pie factory.
Steak pudding has as said suet based shell and chunks of steak with a gravy inside, pork pie has a pastry shell with a cold meat inside very different.
As for the cold war it was propaganda to keep politicians around the world in jobs

Dood, please, tell me. I mean it. This has been on my mind my whole life.... I KNOW now the US was never spit-polished and squeaky clean, but that is what they told us in many ways, we were conditioned in a way. I'm not sure what changed, but I know better now. In response to being lied to by those I was supposed to trust, I have become a humanist first and foremost.

Don't even bother about this, dude... Propaganda never speaks truth, whatever language it speaks.
The Soviet propaganda was mostly about the "right" way of lifestyle, where the USA was an example of the "wrong" lifestyle... Which ironically had a reverse effect: A lot of Soviet people weren't afraid of USA and did not hated it. In the minds of simple Soviet comrades it was like an etalon of forbidden and wonderfull life, of freedom and dream, where the fancy people rides fancy cars, walks among the fancy skyscrapers and listen to fancy jazz in fancy restaraunts... Well, you got the idea. This image were drawn mostly by the classic movies of the golden age of Hollywood, which started to appear in Soviet film distribution in the years of Khrushchev Thaw.
With Rock'n'Roll music, jeans and other stuff slowly leaking into USSR the popularity of USA amongst youngsters grown even more. Of course authorities heavily reproved this and you even could have been thrown out of the University for walking around in the jeans... Which naturally made it all even more popular. I suppose it was a rather bizarre time...
Good I have been living in USSR only for only seven years
Wow man! That's crazy. I thought the Jeans thing was just a movie joke! Well, childhood for me was probably a lot like life in any little farming life anywhere in the world, I'd imagine. I'm really glad we did not nuke each other, and now we can share toy sodiers and stories!

I am filling cracks and smoothing out the bent plastic pieces where my pliers kinked it when bending Hazzer. It's hard to see them, that is why I keep priming it white with the AB after each filling/sanding phase.

Well, if you are attempting to reproduce the look of the 50's automotive design, smoothness is kind of part of the look. I have always been fascinated by autobody work anyways, but I have never had the opportunity to learn it IRL. This is a fun experiment, the real thing needs lots of sanding too

That is no mere refrigerator friend! that there is a very special and awesome Nuka-Cola Cooler! On the hottest of days that cooler will keep those Nuka-Colas and your Nuka-Quantums ice cold and refreshing! Not all locations have such a glorious Nuka-Cola Cooler at them, so these are special machines indeed! they do a more efficient job than the grocers chill boxes, and a Nuka-Cola kept in the Cooler will stabilize as the isotopes in Nuka-Cola are slowed due to the super-duper freezing of the bottles! That's right, watch that frosty sheen melt as you pull that great Nuka-Cola up to your lips for a drink! enjoy!

much apreciated if you know where that item might be found...
It's a common fission battery, which you are probably not carrying to save weight . Save any Cameras, whiskey, or batteries you get (stash them in a box somewhere) you'll need them for quests later on
Love your vending machines, not just because they are technically well executed, but mainly because making something as useless in gameterms as a vending machine creates that depth and credibility that goes way beyond mere gaming terrain.
Thanks Baiyuan!
Like I said, in game-terms, it functions the same as a scrap of corrugated cardboard does, it's just a piece of cover!
Of course there are always house Rules for added functionality if you want! Also, as joked, it could be something to fight over too if one got bored of fighting over crates and barrels.
I only did these because my blog readers requested them.

The food sanitizer in Fallout 3 has a passive effect on the player as long as it is in the player's inventory. While in the player's inventory, the food sanitizer will increase the HP value of food by 20%. The food sanitizer has no effect on the radiation rating of the food.
