Wasteland WIP: Mark's Junk terrain

[SerialMoM]

Nice job on your hexagon scenery (i also have one package in my must be built section)

I also like your reaper vault dwellers. The color scheme is fine. For me they are to heavily armoured ( more like the Brotherhood of Steel) but maybe one vault was heavily supplied with armour.

Have fun.

Hey have a 13 on each of their shoulders...

I had intended to buy a MAS "District 5 Apartement" set but I got 2 Wall packs and 1 Roof pack thinking they'd be the same. Sadly, no.

But....when you're handed a bag of bull shit, instead of crying about it, grow some corn.

So, I had this idea about using it to make a command center and a second out building. The first is the command center, and I'm really pleased with almost everything about it.


I made the floor out of scrabble tiles, used CA glue to hold them, then mounted the silver-painted/primed building shell on top.  I broke up the roof section and cleaned it up to look more organic. I also cracked some floor tiles and put Milliput in there to look as if the ground is pushing up in the holes.
 

I also used a Scotia Grendel console, the one with the big screen, for scenery in the building. Man, do they SUCK. Resin casting is NOT their forte'.


I also did up some barrels which will be used in this command center as well as the second piece.



I rusted it up using some simple techniques I've gotten mastered, and then I flocked it with medium grit R/R ballast in brown. I also added the console. You can see the broken glass on the floor.



After drybrushing the ground in 3 colors, I added some tall grass in spots, and I took a couple of doors and laid one inside as scenery and another inside as a barricade over one door. I painted the floors in a grey shadow color (a move I kind of like and kind of regret) after the fact to give contrast. I cut out some of the flock to give depth for a shallow pool of irradiated slime.


Finally, I glossed the two smaller monitors, the alarm light at the top, and then I made the glass look a little more broken and ugly with some ghost grey/white paint, streaked across the areas that show glass. I could've dug out the screen where the glass is "missing" to add some depth but that was too much detail for scenery of this quality. Maybe if I REALLY wanted to make it look sharp...but not this time.

Hope you enjoy!

Nice job. I especially like what you did with the Scotia Grendel big screen console.
I got loads of these Grendel pieces myself, they just scream Fallout!

Thanks, Arcturus. It looks great IRL too. Probably the 2nd best terrain I've ever made.

I'm making that junkyard now...


Here's the outline..nothing glued but the fence so far. Cars will be "rusted" and then glued down.


Some toy car parts and VERY poorly sculpted computer parts....all of this will become junk for the yard.


This is with the terrain shape changed with Sculpey, Mark's Junk signage mounted and rusted, and the building mounted. I spray painted "concrete" color right onto the base under the building in order to not have to make a tile surface like I did on the other building, and that's mainly because I'm out of scrabble tiles! Added a shelf with some car wheel/tire parts and a gun.

I'm going to flock tonight and add the cars and junk. I'll be putting the mattress and a chair inside of the building...considering making a table and putting a Grognak comic (printed) and some playing cards (printed) inside on that table but wondering if it's worth the effort for the little details.

Also considering making a "bird's nest" above the building with a ladder for a "lookout". The idea is that this place is/was inhabited sometime recently by a scavenger.
