#Astronaut #Miner #Diorama
This week I built my own original piece inspired by two of the greatest themes in entertainment, Western and Sci-fi. A miner is being visited by some space traveling Pinkertons. They are soliciting their protective services from bandits and robbers.

The light wash over the zenithal highlighting makes me wonder how easily it would be to highlight all the edges with a black and get the aforementioned "Borderlands" cell shading look.

Fantastic. The Pinkerton's logo on flag is a neat touch. I hope that the miners know that the Pinkertons are probably there to spread dissent among the workers as usual. The combination of Wild West and Sci-Fi is really cool.

The tank contains a highly corrosive acid. The pipes go down to each level of the mines where there is a spigot, attached to which is what Is essentially an acid fire extinguisher used for killing the giant spiders that occasionally find their way into the mines from connected cave systems.

Fun fact: the banning of Kinder Surprise eggs stems from an old law from the FDA around what constitutes food and what doesn’t, back when fake milk was being sold and kids were dying from that. The law affects the Kinder Surprise eggs because the toys are encased inside the chocolate…… Edit: nice build! It really was from scratch!

@dougsundseth6904 3 жыл бұрын

Mostly. The Pure Food and Drug Act of 1906 (the act under which Kinder Eggs are banned in the US) is generally seen as the founding of the FDA. So the law caused the FDA rather than the FDA causing the law. I consider the banning of Kinder Eggs to be an overreaction, but the act itself makes sense if you see what was being done 115 years ago. (Sawdust to bulk out foods was the least of the problems.)

First of the great Wild Imaginary West series! Cool. Just for information... "During the 20th century, Pinkerton rebranded itself into a personal security and risk management firm. The company has continued to exist in various forms through to the present day, and is now a division of the Swedish security company Securitas AB, operating as Pinkerton Consulting & Investigations, Inc." "The company has its U.S. headquarters in Westlake Village, California."

In 1926 my grandmother came in from the country to work in the area’s first gas station to see a new type of iron work being used to repair the nearby bridge. At the same time a lot of ice houses were being torn down along the river and so every night grandpa Frank and she brought home whatever the empty milk cart could carry of the detritus.That’s how stuff was built, half of this becomes that, miners having already rusty equipment along with old wood is accurate in spirit. Very cool.

Watching you paint dioramas in this scale is a master class. The color of the rockwork and rusted old metal are so convincing. And let's just stick with mining liquid!

@Nikolapoleon 2 жыл бұрын

I work at a museum in what used to be a mining town. We have a drum of what used to be sodium cyanide in one of the exhibits, since it could be used to dissolve precious metals. The idea was that the waste material could be dumped, and the dissolved metals could be extracted from the liquid later, using a separate process. So maybe that's what your vat of "mining liquid" is in this diorama.
