The Plague Doctor

MPC

lH7bLIV.jpg

 

The project "The Plague Doctor" was born after the vision of the Lazzaretto in Venice that was a structure used in the seventeenth century to accommodate the patients who had infected the plague that was spreading in Italy at that time and the famous novel by Alessandro Manzoni, "I promessi sposi ". Characteristic are the garments used by the doctors of that period: a mask in the shape of a beak as a respirator to keep away the bad smells considered, at the time, the trigger for epidemics; water repellent dress in waxed canvas with gloves, shoes and wide-brimmed hat.

The project requires the use of two cabinets, Level 20 GT and Core P90. The idea is to cover the exterior of the cabinets to give a shape that gives the idea of a historic hospital building using different materials such as brick, tiles and windows. This solution appeared to me after seeing the exterior of the hospital, now in disuse, of Poveglia, still in Venice. The interior, on the other hand, will be decorated with scale objects by doctors of the plague and much more so as to reflect the rooms of a hospital of the time. The P90 cabinet is perfect to be adapted as "waterstation" and also from the roof of this building, in fact it will be positioned above the Level 20 GT in a horizontal way.

Some images of a small part of the objects that will be used in the project. Specifically they are: historical surgical kit, historical syringes and finally very old pharmacy bottles.

Thanks for the trust ? 

Surely the material used will be very much and also very refined. Before starting this project I did a lot of research especially to understand which material is best suited to the theme and soon I will show you some unique pieces !

I took the mask right in Venice where the "Venetian Carnival" with masked costumes is very famous.
The other items on the web while the surgical kit I got as a gift. They are all historical pieces, in fact I will handle them with care.
Those shown are only a small part of the material that I will use for this project. You will also see beautiful ones with photos of other objects ??

Thank you so much for your trust !
The design, the idea and the choice of the material to be used has taken a lot of time because this is a specific theme and therefore the material must also be. To make the idea, I had to realize the hospital beds with a bed base from scratch on my design. Later I will show them and I think that already only those are worth the wait to follow this project.
I am a person who always tries new challenges by always presenting something special and never monotonous.

The difficult thing in doing modding is to have imagination in finding the right theme and finally, but very important, to find the right material.

Fortunately, I do not miss these things ?

ahahaha also scared me the first time I touched with the hand for the simple fact that historically has been really used on people but this should not make you move away from following this project ?

10/10 Love plague doctors OP. 

 

You should have Apocalypse Orchestra playing, every time you boot it up. 

 

 

 

Great and you will like it even more when you see the update below with the doctors of the plague in miniature but with a fantastic detail ?

Excellent idea for music. I could use it for some video presentation of the project. Thank you so much for the idea, I really care about it !

The exterior of the project will represent a historic building and will reflect the architectural line of the time so it will be used of suitable material such as brick, tiles and windows both for the side facades and for the roof. The interior, instead, will be decorated with material in 1:12 scale and will be: bookcase, staircase, double door, carpet, small bottle and test tubes. The material used does not end here because there will also be: hospital beds, desk with chair, books, candles, oil lamps, medical notebook and geographical map.

To complete the work, plague doctors will obviously be there to take care of their patients. They are extremely detailed as a representation and made of resin.

Just a suggestion - to make the thread easier to navigate you could use spoilers to hide the images

Don't ask to ask, just ask... please 🤨

Thanks for the suggestion even if I do not prefer the spoilers because they limit the vision of the work phases.

Thanks Frankie !
I am a person who loves challenges. I never have a reference line but I try to realize more and more specific modding projects.
They are not simple modifications of a front or a midplate but a distortion that allows the perfect integration of the theme chosen for the project.
These projects being very particular it is also difficult to find the right material to make them. This is a main challenge of modding !

Under study. It is possible to see concretely the idea of creating a building with its roof, the Core P90 cabinet.
