Post-Apocalyptia, Part Three: Begin Again...
« on: November 23, 2017, 02:19:45 AM »
No, I am not going to scratch build an entire board for the Sierra Madre - though I have considered it.

I find that threads get unwieldy after about 20 pages, so I tend to restart new threads rather than stretch out the old.  For those who want to look at my prior post-apocalyptic creations, look here:

http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=16800.0

http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=25346.0

But for today, we are going to show off our Dinogas Station, which is better on the inside than the outside, but will be the centerpiece of the next game I run...well, sort of.  I am actually going to end with two sort of 'showpieces'.  I will likely go back and hit some other spots on this later - like where after I took the photo, I saw that I forgot the inside of the bloody door.











And then the person most likely to live here, and my latest post-apo lady.



And her newest robot - which, I tried to make it look like Austin Powers, so he could be the Mojobot...



And the lady touring her house.




And I made a few turrets to use for defense.

And the first reply will be more of my own stuff!

I decided to make myself a new board, so I recycled one of the old ones that was plain and decided to smash a hole in the middle, and make a radioactive pit, Fallout style, with glowing green and everything.

First stage:



Second Stage: I added lights, because why not?



And then I poured a good green layer of resin over it.




And then a layer of faintly yellow over the top to try and give it a good depth.




And it is really hard to photograph lights...I never realized HOW hard.

Lovely, just lovely!

I am a huge fan of lighting up terrain (even if I don't do it myself) and your radioactive pool is ace!

Love it Neil.
Now, back to painting your Medievals,
or are you done. ;)

I had to get this made for Ambuscade next weekend, and I'll go back Teutonic Knights after that.

Love that lit sludge pool. Brilliant.

Thanks - I have played with lighting off and on for a few years, and every once in a while, I consider trying to find streetlights that light up without wires, and trying to do a night-time adventure with the ghouls drybrushed with glow in the dark paint...

My latest post-apocalyptic game featured a little fellow that I had following around a Vault Dweller.  She calls him "Boy".





And here he is with his girl, and one of the poor ladies they rescued in the game.



Made from a Hill Giant Chieftain from Pathfinder with a little bit of baggage, and a Brahmin I had lying about.

Nice! I've got that same fella on my desk right now, planning to use him for my Mutant Cannibals. I love the conversion work you've done, all those extra bits add a lot of character

Thanks!  I did one before that I just repainted without any conversions and had as part of my Hillbilly faction, but I think this looks niftier.

He was actually the winner along with his Vault Dweller in the survival horror game I ran yesterday.

'Boy' is just awesome. Love the collection of stuff on his back and the controlling hand on the Brahmin.

What did you do with the item you cut out of his right hand?

Ooh, lovely! Do the lights pulse, or are they at the same brightness all the time? They're amazing either way.
