Arefu

A vote was held to locate the next destination and the choices were for it to be:
1) A known to be existing location in our world.
2) A known to not be existing location in our world.

To my surprise, everyone wanted to locate a Fallout 3 location that did not exist in our reality. That was the winning option.

So I couldn't disappoint and knew that this one had to be a memorable for anyone who has enjoyed Fallout 3.

Pouring over the maps and the spots we've discovered so far, it became pretty obvious that our next location was going to be Arefu. It's impossible to not know about Arefu and the trouble they have with the vampire group called The Family.

My very Quantum mug! You can have one too, just head over to the Quantum Shop via the link in my bio. Mmm coffee…

Finally finished the Bobblehead display and placed all my bobbleheads found in Fallout 3. The only one I’m missing is the repair bobble though. Maybe one day I’ll find it to complete the collection. #fallout #fallout3 #falloutbobblehead #bethesdagamestudios

My Fallout Bobblehead shelf is finally finished! It’s now time to start displaying the collection! #Fallout #bobbleheads

I never really got the opportunity to get into Magic The Gathering before as I don’t know many who play. But I definitely had to get the Fallout Commander decks when they released. Now I enjoy Magic The Gathering a lot. So here are some I created featuring my Fallout OC.

With a new project underway, I took advantage of having to pull out the old paint used on the gym walls in order to finish another small project that’s been sitting on table for months now. I’ve had these letters printed and sitting for too long and as I labeled the gym I wanted to do the same for the new office cause it’s such a nice little detail. Now to finish up the next little project for the office.

New video up on the YouTube channel!
Come checkout my overview of @thewandcompany ‘s diecast replica of the Pip-Boy 3000 Mk5 as seen on the Amazon Prime Fallout show series.

I go through its operation, appearance, flaws, how it compares to other pip-boys and more.

Follow the link in my bio to my YouTube channel or copy and paste the following link if you can : https://youtu.be/SDomXq_qQYI?feature=shared

Gahhh.. this is such a nice pipboy. @thewandcompany did such an amazing job on it! It’s got some weight to it but fits so nicely on the arm. I was worried how a smaller pipboy would feel but it just works!

I do have to say I am a little disappointed that the USB-c dongle is loose (falls out) and not secured by a snap or locking method. My pipboy also appears to have a small lifted part of the hinge so it looks not carefully put together, maybe damaged. I still think a small pop up port for a holotape could have been added or another clever Method of keeping that function/feature too.

But overall it’s nice! I really love how well it turned out. Thank you @thewandcompany it was well worth the wait. I can’t wait to see if you’ll release any other updates for this too.

Video coming soon!!!!

Finally got around to editing and organizing the lore behind my Dom Quantum Fallout OC. There’s always so much more I want to dig into still, but to be honest I’m not much of a writer. I’m just another creative with an imagination in the Fallout universe. Grab a cuppa Joe and enjoy the read.

Shoutout to @overshia for creating the awesome background sheet.

I’ve been 3D printing as a continued use of my 3D graphics and Animation degree. It’s allowed me to redesign and bring to life some of my favorite fictional items from beloved series like my Fallout H.A.M. Radio.

But it’s also extremely satisfying to create parts for practical, everyday, household solutions.

When you’re testing settings on a new printer, you’ll end up with a lot of new benchy’s.

I’ve been long over due for an upgrade. I’m tired of getting faulty hotbeds on my barebones CR10 so it’s now time to build up my @Elegoo_Official Neptune 4 Max.

Maybe now I’ll finally get around to printing some #Fallout Power Armor.

I’m a dark roast kind of guy, I like my coffees bold and strong.
So there was a bit of me that was slightly disappointed to see these coffees be a medium roast.

However, this coffee is really good. It has an amazing smell that fills the house with a deliciously intoxicating aroma. I ground and brewed enough beans to satisfy my taste buds and I can say the flavor was there! At some point I even did pick up on the aftertaste of an earthy chocolate in the back of my tongue. Bones knows coffee and as a Fallout fan, I’m even happier.

Another project that in progress. A fusion core container that I’ll be storing my MTG dice, rad tokens and more in.

No better way to wake to the wasteland than with a fresh piping hot brew of Fallout coffee from @bonescoffeecompany

As a coffee fiend and fallout fanatic, this is an awesome combination to kick start the day with. Can’t wait to give these a try!

I’ve finished designing and have now printed 1/2 of my Magic The Gathering (MTG) Fallout crate container. I think it turned out really well! You can store the entire commander deck inside, including the commander deck box. Or you can use each side as your deck/graveyard pile containers. Can’t wait to paint this up.

Skyline Drive is a favorite place of mine to enjoy a nice long windy drive with fantastic views, but also for some really great hiking trails too! It’s awesome to see yet another place I know and have been too many times get some of that Fallout love and attention! Thank you @bethesda @bethesdagamestudios

The awesome thing about having a brother who also enjoys fallout is when he comes to visit and shares the enjoyment of opening his Magic The Gathering cards with you. The artwork is so fun to admire on these, I totally want my own set now though! 🤣

I had said that work was getting done to revamp the Capital Wasteland Travel Guide episodes, and it’s certainly underway! New, intro, sounds, music, overlays, scripts and recordings are takings place…

But the videos aren’t the only thing getting a facelift, I’m also updating the website to be less cluttered, more interactive and organized and hopefully presentable. Here’s the new Holotape page on the website!

Nice new Nuka~Cola Quantum drinking glass added to the collection. I got two because I couldn’t resist, it’s my new fav cup in the house. The glass is from @space_budgie1 and it’s truly awesome.

Fallout 3’s map does a nice job of encompassing the DMV (DC, MD, VA) area and follows the path of the Potomac River just as well. But it is by no means a full 1:1 representation nor does it match the exact topography.

But after diving into both actually existing locations that were used as inspiration and finding the spots where the made up locations would be, you really start to see just how large and area the Fallout 3 map actually covers.

Because of this, the Fallout 3 map gets broken and spread apart for each location across the real world map. The actual distances between the locations become more surprising.

Gotta say, these specs from @gunnaroptiks are pretty awesome and a must for any vault dweller opening the vault door to the bright outside.

One of my most favorite things about Fallout is visiting places that were inspired by those that actually exist in our reality. Here’s Harper’s Ferry in West Virginia. I got almost once a year, it’s a fun little place.

I’m dropping it all to return to and focus solely on my Capital Wasteland Travel Guide series. With more of a plan and being prepared, I’ll be redoing the older episodes before moving onto new locations. Here’s a little sample…

#Fallout #Fallout3 #CapitalWastelandTravelGuide

Finally after all these years, I’ve added these to my collection!

With the new elgato setup installed, I did a little pre configuration recording to see how it is right of the bat. This little has some issues but it shouldn’t take much more to get it good.

I’m going to be returning to and revamping my Capital Wasteland Travel Guide series. You can still watch the old episodes but they’ll get replaced soon enough!
