FOREWORD
Well a foreword is what this base step by step definatly needs.
I am a big Fallout PC Game fan. Love the setting, love the gameplay, love the stories, love the humor since Fallout 1. Was not prepared on what Fallout 4 will do with me. I can only recommend good music to the readers of this article. Read it with these songs and you will be in the right mood!
I got so much inspiration from this game, which all came together to form the experience I reworked into the base of "Welcome to Sanctuary" - this is the project we are talking about:
Some postcards
from my Fallout 4 experience, I really got crazy with building settlements, mainly my beloved Sanctuary, but I worked on about 10 in the same quality, I was not really playing the game like I should for a long time, I was just building, dressing settlers in the perfect way I was aiming for, worked on supply routes and totally got lost in this aspect of the game.
First I was not in charge. My girlfriend made us both as characters, one of my cat hacked computers regularly, but then I slowly started to work on my own virtual housing in Sanctuary.
I found some of these Power Armours and started collecting them.
Sanctuary grew and madness was arriving, I dug some graves there too no one will ever find.
I got my own basketball court and was collecting basketballs there, everything under the protective sun-glassed eyes of my Sanctuary Guard Patrol.
Travelled far and got inspired. My character looked pretty cool all the time.
Well, mad house building in Sanctuary and mad detailed dressing projects in Sanctuary. I will not show you the other settlements I had, but I can tell you I went crazy with it. The Fort was packed with twenty four perfectly dressed Minute Men in only Leather armour, I had one town with only men dressed in girl dresses and much more weird stuff.
Well and I collected on ... and on.
Until I decided to quit the game by finishing the main story.
I needed to tell this for better understanding on what I wanted to represent with the base I was up to build.
THE BASE - STEP BY STEP
It all started with cutting a car in two halfs. Chhwuutschy! Chhwuutschy! Chhwuutschy!
I was starting to build without thinking to much, but still had my Fallout 4 experience in the back of my mind. So I was up to build something crazy like I did in the game. Cork, the car, a barrel, thin stone flagging, plastic card pieces and a scale model electricity pylon. Skulls, more cork, details here and there and all rather damaged.
I was using bathroom equipment I got from a architecture store from Berlin, called Modulor. Threw some beer bottles around the base and into the toilet. A skull in the sink. Destroyed the lacquer of the model car like berserk to enjoy painting it later on.
Where is the skull I was talking of? But well I love the shape of the cactus there!
A statue, which is a Darksword Miniature, but soon will the stature will see no more.
Meanwhile I was also starting to brainstorm on the models I want to put on the base. Hasslefree Miniatures mainly and a small girl (on the Tiger) from Privateer Press.
I needed them to see where to place them. A tire, a chair, some string,
and Bouddica looking confused andre-evulating.
The inside of the buried car should be visible to increase the madness of this project. A long dead solider buried and even some weapons in a box, maybe.
As you know I am a big fan of basing composition, I even have a full weekend class talking and teaching about it. You might think, that in this base there is no composition, it looks just like weird chaos, but it ain't. I just worked more from the feeling, rather ... well, I did glue more stuff to it and statue went blind. Loved that.
More stone flagging junk.
I did place these wooden sticks to maybe strengthen the lines that would guide the viewers eye to the base and miniatures, but I was not sure yet. And strings.
Welcome to Sanctuary. Plastic card. Ruler. Pen.
Rough, like the world would be after the big bang, when all that is left would crawl out through the Fallout. Cutted with a blade.
Love 'em. So tiny.
Glue and blade work and drill.
Screw it. I also wanted welded joints, used Vallejo Plastic Putty 401 for it. Trrriiittsch!
More stuff in Sanctuary. Uranium Fever has come and got me down!
There is the skull in the sink. Man I loved to build up that base. So much me in it, a butterfly, a teddy bear, another statue and chains! Just missing the rocket 69!
Of course I did paint it, but this is maybe a story for another article in the future days of Massive Voodoo. Stay tuned and if you like the project you can see more photos over here via Putty&Paint.
Ding! Dong!
I hope you enjoyed the insight into this base build up. In retroperspective I can say I went crazy in Fallout 4 and with this project, but I enjoy both. I am thankful to this project as it offered an oppourtunity to put my personal emotions into something you can hold in your hands. I do not regret anything, maybe the dick-shaped cactus, but ... ahh no, screw it! Just a whole lotta shaking going on!
A little advertisment in the end of this article:

Keep on happy painting!

Primed it looked even more as one piece.
