Yeah, it does take a while to reach the level you need to train in the Power armor from the Brotherhood of steel, or go into the simulator of the Outcasts if you have that DLC. Lvl 10 at least.

Like Dave said, grab what does not slow you down, and then sell like crazy to merchants and caravaners.

Make it your goal to take all of the merchant's caps, whenever possible, every time.

I found out it helps to leave them with no more than 5caps after dealing with them, they get more later.

Every 2 days vendors get restocked IIRC

Well the chopper is correct Dave (sorry for the late reply)

AnUnearthlyChilde@ you can get them in the UK from here http://www.antenocitisworkshop.com/ hope that helps

I think the base plate on the walkway section needs rivets Dave, I cant see none ……… thats HERESY!!!!! that calls for scolding or at least a dam hard riveting ………


RW back to your pit ……...

LDD- miniature bases would just knock them off in play, it has to be game-friendly, remember.

i think that emossed treadsecure plate is next to the best thing in looks as rivets... i have a sheat at my desk but for now haven´t found a use for it...as i atm don´t do terrain...maybe i try it out for my next tank...whenever that might happen...

as for off topic... i think it is always the same bunch of fellas there...rather like a private club and no newbs are allowed... so after some few tries i decided to skip it totally... beside...the leagues threads are often so off topic as well that i get tow for one bargain anyway^^

hey dave... so does the addition to your chop-it work good? i need to fix that soon...so first hand info is apreciated^^

cheers...and damn...when had i last have to read through 2 pages worth of backlog here...??? oh and nice of you to join sparky^^

oh and as for FO3... i tend to wear the next best thing to the brother hood of steel armor... and for me the only addition would be the extra strenght...that woul be handy for collecting even more loot^^ but for now i don´t need it...also caps...i collect rockets and drugs as a currency too...they don´t weight anything and are essential a currency that way... and i don´t use neither ....so^^ money was never any issue for me...even early on...oh an for your info...i am nearing 19 lvl i think...

Maxmini do a nice gatling gun that would work a treat

Dave how many figures did you buy or were they freebies

ITS ALL OUR NUTHOUSE YOU MUST LEARN TO SHARE !!!!!!1

I just managed to find me a minigun in FO last night... shame that it took forever to kill the mutant that was attached to it...

Thanks LDD, but I think I got this one buddy
I bought what you see

You all have heard of "speed painting" before:

Now Dave has introduced "speed scratchbuilding"!

Excellent work, DST! Unfortunately, I've never played the game, so I can't give you points for accuracy, but it looks great all the same! My only bit of CC would be to put a little work into the ammo feed on the main housing of the gun.

Keep up the great work!

I wasn't going for 100% accuracy- I cheated a bit here and there

I still Have another Super Mutant, but I have no idea how to convert it to look different yet.

Why not kit it out with a minigun as well, or something equally devastating? (haven't found all the awesome weapons yet, so I'd suggest something else but don't know of any lols)

The shoulders are all wrong, trust me I have been thinking minigun all day.

Doesn't have to be aiming it, I would have thought it looked quite good just lugging it.

Or you could go with the fire-hydrant on a stick, that the behemoth-mutant carried.

"hunting rifle" Super Mutant?

You are overencumbered and cannot run

Then you'd just leave the base empty and make people take initiative tests

RE-cast them in clear resin, or a base with foot print impressions

Not a bad idea unicorn

Your post on the Lead Adventure Forums made me want to check this thread. I'm Major Talon on the forums. How much was shipping from Brother Vinni for the minis, and how long did it take to arrive?

Speaking of clear resin, I am considering a project using clear resin recast of the FW Eldar avatar, fiber optics, and a few LEDs . I think that the LEDs will carry enough light to light up the model and I want to terminate the ends of the optics at the eyes and mouth (brighter that way). Then paint the outer most layers of flesh in a dark solid color so that the light shines through the cracks.

those models are awsome! btw when coming home from gw, i saw a car with a plate reading - DSGASTD, which i take as close enough

Thanks Calgar! And WELCOME!
The whole order was about $68 USD shipped once PayPal figured out the currency exchange. It took about 3 weeks to arrive.

I decided the Other Super Mutant will have a Chinese Assault Rifle (FROM ZINGE) AND a Nail Board (FROM ME)

Hi dstien - the odd looking enclave soldier looks identical to the enclave soldiers from fallout 1 and 2. I've been playing them for nostalgia reasons (nerd alert).

I may be a little late to the party, but let me just say that those models are sooo awesome! Especially the Brotherhood models. And the big mutant. And... and...

Since nerdiness is becoming accepted more nowadays, let's hope meat-sack-ness dies off with their generation, along with their hate and racism, and especially their knee-jerk inclination to shun and hate (and in the worst cases try and supress or demonize) anything that is different to them.

You lot do of course realise that "meat-sack-ness", as you call it, may well be on the way to becoming the new nerdiness, right? Oh, the irony...

the super mutants would be some excellent ogryn material methinks...hmmm...

damn those are some realistic rivets!

As for the filters, I did not use any! Just me, the mini, and procreate (the app- NOT the putty)

since i have no apple tech at home i don´t know for sure what that app would be... in fact i haven´t used any app at all as i don´t own a smartfone neither...^^

but i think on a different system you would have used either gimp or PS...

HAHA THanks Vik

Basically with procreate, you actually draw, it is much less editing than PS, somewhat like gimp, and almost like a stepped up version of paint. The computer does all of the highlighting and shading, as well as some of the proportions and posing, so it is very easy to get a realistic image

He'd have to opaque the windows before doing that I would have thought... plus iirc the bulk is polystyrene, which wouldn't cope well in prolonged exposure to bulb heat, then he'd need to put vents in and possibly a cooling system

Yeah, it would look cool, but I won't be lighting it, like Childe said...

No program that I know of, unless you buy an independent drawing tablet for PC, such as the vistablet

Looks great but the buttresses I feel could do with being smoother

Thanks LDD, but it isn't plaster, it's stucco and it isn't falling apart, it's just peeling and exposing the brick. Oh, and it is also DONE, that means I am not going to attempt sanding the buttresses after i've riveted the thing.

Whats the colour scheme on this going to be then ? I we talking distressed and discoloured, some graffiti and posters would look good on this

I see a couple of the posters hanging off slightly as well, now go and create magic

I think that the building looks amazing even if there are no holes in it...

I like the idea of posters everywhere.


Dave, this^^ is fantastic.....

Sorry to argue semantics- but regardless, the same technique would work on foamcore for creating interior PLASTER peeling (you just carve lath boards exposed instead of brick.)

There will be no internal electrical lighting, but don't get your panties in a bunch- with foamcore I actually do know what I am doing, and it will have the appearance of being lit within, trust me.

ok... i try to get that awful knot out of my undies^^

with foamcore I actually do know what I am doing, and it will have the appearance of being lit within, trust me.

ok i truust you with this one...but only just...

I can not wait to see how you do that!

I love all your idea's...


*Learns so much* Awesome. *Bows to master*

It will because the white interior will show through the semi opaque windows and fake a slight glow..... Coupled with the exterior paint job to darken up the area surrounding the windows will make it stand out more.....


Good Idea, Dave.....

It involves white card painted with alcohol markers (Prismacolor) and mounted inside the windows after it is painted. Patience is the most annoying thing, but it is required when working in foamcore. It never looks quite right until it is done

Link for those markers, Please dave....

what Prismacolor markers? You can get them at any Michaels, hobby lobby or any art store. Dick Blick often has the best internet prices though. http://www.dickblick.com/products/prismacolor-premier-double-ended-art-markers/
they often compete with Art Supply Warehouse
http://www.aswexpress.com/?gclid=CIX6tLmtlq8CFQTd4AodQnow0Q
You just have to shop around for the best prices.

Prismacolor is just the brand I have, but Copic is another brand, same stuff IIRC, alcohol ink.

Then it's eternal.

Unless you toss it....


Then it's eternal garbage....

Have you worked on that at all the air ship? I like air ships but cant be arse to build one


I have to say I was not originally sold on this building …….. However since the edition of cracks and brick work it is looking pretty dam cool.

have you thought some kind of gargoyles or statues hanging from those buttresses

hurhurhur... and yes... it is quite long... i have to measure it some day...but i think around over well 60 cm... or more than 2 feet...

Viktor von Domm wrote:did i understand you right? you will make the window panes look shiney by using those markers and thus creating an oily look?...cool idea...

Nope, not exactly- I'm just going to give the illusion that lights are on inside the building, you'll see.

@LDD- yes, you have told me that several times now

what makes me really edgy now is what you will come up with to go on to these boards now... a mere trainrails will be not enough i fear... there needs to be a sort of market or something else high up there...

I am lost as to what I have told you several times

Ohhh Vik, see...It is another layer of basing...you can put anything you want up there!

@LDD that you didn't like the building at first, but now you do.

Well, I had to be honest i was not over keen on it compared to your earlier work, however since you have updated it and added more detail it looks great.

Dam I have said it again well its all good

Thanks buddy

Seriously though, I cannot say enough about the Dremel Saw Max- one of the coolest tools for the terrain-builder IMHO.

And I saw a expensive lazy man's way out for terrain. GF-9 makes scenery as well.

Funny that you say that Vic! I've been thinking about selling my RoB board, and make one out of pink foam!

NO NOT REALLY I just see a long line of similar buildings with the rail running across them …….. like the movies

Well, I only have a 4x6' gaming table, but yes, my imagination is full of OTT ideas.

This section will be ruined and destroyed on either side of the supports a-la-the Fallout world.

Awesome! I like how this underhive became wasteland. Vinnis minis look super!

I would ask how you have room for all this terrain, but I've seen how big your working space is.

Great work here, pardon me for missing this, what is the material you are using on the scaffolding on the left here, the black/grey sections? and at the very top of that building and as those supports? I am working on the following big beastie and need a lot of this kind of stuff for the arms, legs etc so knowing your source would be a great help.

WoW! That is impressive!
Thanks man. They are LifeLike or Atlas brand HO scale railroad Warren truss bridges. I just used the bottoms as supports, and glued the side pieces on the top.

Looking good Dave.

Vik, are you saying Daves stuff is like German efficiency?


Because if you are...


... that isn't a bad thing

German efficiency...i am by no means known to know anything about that one... so i wouldn´t be able to judge for that... i am way too unorganized/ lazy and all... the only thing i might get a bit closer to that virtue as you might see it (me not by the way...) is that i like to be punctual... to the point that i arrive around half an hour earlier as the date would need me to... because if i didn´t over compensate my inbuilt tardiness i would be never on time...

there is nothing efficient about my terrain-building! Gak takes forever!

This coming from the man who promised updates, got everyone to tune in, and then didn't log onto Dakka all weekend!

Oh! Is that Ikea? I loveee their meatballs... and the desks aren't half bad either!

For some reason today, I got the completely irrational idea of building a foamcore Tenpenny Tower...

Tenpenny tower?

Que?

Tenpenny Tower


Although completely insane and impractical, the idea got me thinking about different ways to reproduce that Neo-Classical, rusticated fascia stonework used on buildings

On a more practical, game table-friendly scale of course
Just ideas...It took me half the day google-fu-ing stuff just so I could learn it was called"rusticated" and "Neo-Classical" - I knew what I wanted, but I had no idea what to even search for because I didn't know what it was called.

FO3... lol... i went there... but that whole qeustline attached to that tower makes me just gun everyone inside and outside... too many snobs... darn... all that lame talk there...

Tenpenny Is faux regency/Victorian judging from the style of buildings... it is not smooth enough to be art deco or nuveau

THat style would lend itself to "repeating" wall patterns rather well too. Ideal for making a mold of... (Well thats my next set of "walls" I think a Faux Masonry look.)

Ah, my "Evil Character" got a place at Ten-Penny Tower,,,Did I mention the fountains serve rad free water Vik?

Hey vik - you want to find argyle - head directly (and I mean directly) west from smith casy's garage (when you've found it). You should come across a boulder with bunting across it set into a cliff - this is an entrance, but it has no location arrow so its easy to miss. That is all.

I like the idea of the tower build, although it would be a different direction to your current build or would you try and blend it in some how ?

Galorn@ I think large sections could be moulded and cast up in this type of design …….. do you fancy the challenge then ?

It would be something different. My first test carve last night did not work out so well. That type of masonry work is very, very straight. Unfortunately, my carving method isn't as uniform and straight. So I'll have to rethink this idea.

dsteingass wrote:It would be something different. My first test carve last night did not work out so well. That type of masonry work is very, very straight. Unfortunately, my carving method isn't as uniform and straight. So I'll have to rethink this idea.

What are you using as the base material for this ?

Just foamcore...

Even though I first scored it with an x-acto before using my magic inkpen, I don't believe this will look right.

If I make even one mistake (like above the right window) i'll have to start completely over.

if you follow this road dave, will there be window frames as well? some raised details? i could live with the odd error in the carving...after all it could be covered by weathring...

Well yeah Vik- this is just a test carve, you've got to take it for waht it is at the moment, a test technique piece.

understood...but looks promising nevertheless^^

I think you are being over perfect at the moment Dave, this looks pretty dam good especially for the test piece, I cant see no real issue myself.

You could just do a generic building on foam card with just the brick shape,windows and door gaps, then add the decretive details later this way might limit errors and need to start over again.

Plus you could cast the main shape up and you have the basis for several buildings just alter the detail, plus everything would tie in easily together yet look different.

Any way I am impressed all ready looks promising, I might get some foam card to do this myself for my display shelf ….

What counts is that Dave makes building scenery that folks would love to play their games amongst!

I'd like to hope so anyways!

If your goal is to reproduce Gothic architecture- you have no choice but to make the arches correctly, otherwise it will look wrong to the viewer. The same applies to any style. It isn't a matter of being over-perfect- it just is what it is. This style of rusticated facade IRL consists of perfectly straight masonry lines. If I can't make the lines perfectly straight in the foamcore, then it won't resemble the original, and it just isn't a viable idea. We will see though, I haven't given it up completely. I'll play with it some more.

Hmm try a old fashioned number 2 Pencil to score in the lines... im told It sort of self lubricates due to the graphite.

Dave, I would not use foam core for this if I were you. It just doesn't seem to give the look you're going for. How about trying to cut the "bricks" out of styrene sheet, and then glue them in the straight lines you are trying for? More work, yes, but you would get straighter edges.

True, but then I have the problem of what to use for window panes, architectural greeblies, etc. I dunno, like I said, it was just an idea, even if it is somewhat half-baked. Good exploratory stuff though.

I as well have concluded that the architechture in question is the way I want to go with my table. I am still hoping to start it end of May. i foresee a lot of that brick facade all over the place with Aquilas and posters everywhere. I am thinking that casting the wall segments is the way to go, as well.....

I've put some images of stuff I'm considering doing for terrain in my bloggy ^_^

Man that building was worth wading through piles of random crap. I'm amazed at just how many pages of stuff there is in your thread. Really like the station a lot, build a derelict/crashed grav train to go with it.

I also don't know how you made so many rivets.... I made 200 or so this week and wanted to slip with the scalpel so I could stop.

Thanks man! I used the Chop-It!

I almost bought one the other day but at £36 it was a bit much for what I'd use it for.

PDH, try ordering it from here... including postage it works out at about £25

Endless mass-produced, exact replica parts is worth a lot to me!

personaly i see many uses for foamcore for building terrain... but with this idea (i henceforth will call it an idea...not an actual project...devils advocat...) i think a different material would be better... namly wood...balsa wood... i think this material will later on bring all the shapes you need and would provide the thickness needed...

but the main problem here is if you are perhaps getting yourself into a dead end...? too much of a good thing and all? if the good thing might be the style and the fun FO3 provided you with maybe you should take a step aside and do something differntly?


my suggestion... build us a tank from scratch... or...for that matter... get yourself around the idea (see?!) to build yourself something moveable for your table...you had that fancy lifter idea....later on that earlier mentioned idea can be revisited...

That is a very good idea, Vik. Switch focus and maybe come back later.....

Yeh Vik, I think you are right. This last weekend I was on such a high, building-wise: I just produced soo much, perhaps I am just coming down from that high now?

Hope you don't mind me asking Dave, but have you seen the doctor about depression?

I'm a depressive, have been since I was about ten... which is 18 years now... only just started to sort myself out in the last year or so. Well what I'm trying to say is it might be worth a look. Hope that wasn't too forward or anything...

Dont go down this road, I suffered with a few spouts of depression it's a gak to get out of once it takes hold, look for warning signs ( you get used to them ).

It was mainly because of work (no big surprise there then) now I take the view feth em and it works, I ask my self the question when I start to feel stressed is it worth it, the answer is NO.

Smile and just think I may hate my job but it will end soon however you will be you every day of your life, a complete arse hole that you cant get away from.

There now don't you feel better

Dave I did not mean you were being a perfectionist out right, I meant as a test piece it was dam good, plus you found the faults or potential issues and now know how to try to rectify them.

I would say that was a good out come my self

LDD take it from someone who knows. Depression is not something you can shrug off or ignore. I tried that for 17 years...

But I'm not going to turn this into an argument.

Dave if I can help with what I mentioned, just inbox me dude

No, it's not that. Really it isn't.

See, i'm kind of like TRON, I defend the users from the evil red guys in Zurich, Switzerland who are out to destroy them. I do this for a living, by choice. For the past 4 years we have worked our asses off, doing more and more and more work, We do so well, we get our contract renewed, and after 4 years with no pay raise, they give me $0.37/hr raise, but also raise the cost ofbenefits $2.00/hr.

My company MAKES $100,000.00/year on EACH of us on top of the pittance they pay us. It's legalized highway robbery!

This isn't depression, it's fething insanity my freind! I'm a crazy motherfether! LOL

Dont get me wrong I was not saying you can shrug it off, it's an illness which I have suffered with at times which also I am not going to disgust on here.

What I meant was you have to look out for triggers and the causes of stress, the point of my job which was the main factor of mine I have learnt over a long time to deal with.

Plus my uncle suffered from bipolar so i understand how bad depression can go, sorry if you felt I was trying to undermined this illness anyway as this was not my intention.

Sometimes you need a change in your job. Even if you do the same job for a different company. Easier said then done I know, but don't let your job effect your life in a negative way. We all eat gak at work from time you time but if your FULL then if may be time to move on.
