For my first Apocalypse Me post, I've been working on some tents, didn't I do that on a previous year, yes I did, but I sold that one as Joe, from joesavestheday ordered a painted version, and said he would like it like the pictures on the website, so I need a new one, I've gone for a green one this time, would hopefully blend into the scenery better, and less likely to draw attention.
I've also been creating a new version, this time with the tent flaps open, here is the green before casting.
To complete the piece there is an internal section as well, which I have already cast, and below is the painted version.
Hopefully I can get the tent cast this week, and be able to release it soon, that's all for this post, next time a vehicle, so until then, stay safe and have fun !
Cheers Dave
This is pure genius! The open tent and the inner part are so creative! I love them!
ReplyDeleteThank you Suber, it's been on the workbench for a while now, until I worked out a few problems to overcome ! LOL
DeleteNice work on the tents Dave! The tent insert looks really good as well - reminds me of the time I went touring Scotland by motorbike a very long time ago!
ReplyDeleteThank you John, that means I've got the right look to the interior, if it invokes a memory ! LOL
DeleteO man, these are super cool! Very nice work indeed Dave!
ReplyDeleteThank you Dai, I'm hoping to do a zombie and victim to go with the open tent as well, as an optional extra.
DeleteIts nice of you to share a tent with us on your birthday! I hope you had a good day and enjoyed turning 18 again this year too ;) I really like the open tent quite a bit. You rarely see that and its probably more accurate to see a tent like that instead of all sealed up. I suppose it adds some signs of life to a game which is always a good thing in my book.
ReplyDeleteThank you JUeff, should always try to do something you enjoy on your Birthday ! LOL Came so close to getting 18 right last year, but then screwed it up on the final hurdle ! LOL Hopefully I will this year, then I can see what 19 looks like ! LOL With scenery I create I like it to be able to help tell a story, as you can see on the internal, how the person on the right likes everything neat, but the one on the left is a bit more chaotic. Hopefully the next piece I do will add even more ! LOL
DeleteI don't know why, probably the colour, but there's a real "The Last of Us" vibe with that tent, Dave. Albeit I would want more than a sheet of cloth between me and some fungi infected zombies. LOL!! Great work.
ReplyDeleteThank you Simon, yes it seems to be a common thing in Zombie Apocalypse TV series, there's zombies walking around, and we'll sleep in a tent ! LOL Personally I'd rather have an RV as a better form of somewhere to sleep plus it's always ready to move to another zone ! LOL
DeleteWhat a cool idea, Dave!
ReplyDeleteThank you Keith, do like to keep trying new things ! LOL
DeleteGreat idea on having the open tent with sleeping bags, Dave! And your tents look a lot more sturdy than the one I made from tin foil LOL!
ReplyDeleteThank you Matt, wanted a bit more story to the tent, making the internal helps, hopefully the zombie and victim will add more ! LOL There was nothing wrong with you're tent mate, it looked awesome.
DeleteThose tents are really nice, but you must be crazy for sculpting those tiny tent ties!! The inside is a nice touch too. Great job, Dave!
ReplyDeleteThank you Brian, no one has ever accused me of being sane ! LOL The ties were actually easier than the zips ! LOL
