Fallout: Heading East
« on: November 16, 2013, 11:58:51 PM »


So, wetting myself behind the ears, here's my very own Fallout thread (as well everyone else seems to have them).  ;)

Here's where I stand with (mostly) painted models. I'll try and post each faction of interest as a different uh...post just for tidiness.

The Brotherhood of Steel:
Elder (Reaper Bones Anirion, Wood Elf Wizard)


Paladins in T45-d Power Armour (Brother Vinni)


Knights in Advanced Combat Armour (Hasslefree White Ops)


Protectrons and Eyebots (Brother Vinni)


Patrol Humvee (A toy conversion based off of the Fallout Tactics Vehicle. The Paladins ride this one)


With a Scribe (Blight Wheel Miniatures. Eugh that BOS symbol needs tidied)


Scouter (Tamiya conversion)

Oh boy, that lot's beautiful. C:
Mind if I ask for more/ clearer shots of your Paladins? I'm intrigued by their guns!
If you'd like an apocalyptic monster in 28mm, throw me a PM and I'll think it over.

Tah. :D

The last camera I used still had a film in it, none of these electronic doodas, so the pictures may not be the best. Anyhow:

Paladins with AER14 (with mods) and AER9 laser rifles.


Paladins with .223 Colt Rangemasters/ Modded Service Rifles (just a quick swap out of the Brother Vinni Gatling Laser)


The rest of the pictures are still uploading, so ..."stand by" (ooh poor references).

Plus a few WIPs:
Brotherhood Transport Humvee (for the Knights. Converted from another toy)


Brotherhood Tank (A Tamiya Sherman)



Raider/Wastelander vehicles (Two are scratchbuilt, the other's a toy)


"Get Some!" (A kinder Egg capsule)


So that's that. Till the next time I can scavenge a camera then. Next on the painting table looks like; some Trogs (Van Buren style, not the Pitt), Caesar's Legion, Reavers (Raiders), Super Mutants and Shi. Along with that there's a few odds and ends that'll get chucked in to break it up a little. ...And aside from all that I'm doing my best to avoid painting a shanty town board, a modular Vault and ...uh the Sierra Madre villa.

...Taking on bets on whether I'll manage to get any of that actually finished before Christmas? ^^

Nope
No way I'll be able to comment on each image individually - this would turn into an essay of love.
Those tribals though, beautiful and inspiring!

Beautiful vehicle conversions there Wyrmalla. You have really squeezed a lot of character into each build.
- What's the big spotty from on the sherman?

Yeah... image overload a tad. Though, barring a few reports, work at college's slacking off, so I aught to be able to churn out another couple of miniatures over the coming week (but, ack, I'm out of glue :().

@ Constable Bertrand

Its from Games Workshop's Imperial Guard Vehicle Accessory kit,you get one along with each of their Leman Russ, Chimera, etc kits (though they go for about £1.50 on ebay). My intention with the thing was to make it look like it was used by the Russians, and some other countries before it wound up back in American hands (or something, who knows the thing's 300 years old). So German track armour along with Russian Turret armour.

Looking like a great project, I love your vehicles.
As others have said, inspired tribals.

Updates. So here's last night's products.

Caesar's Legion
Legionaires (Urban War Gladiators)


Legion Mongrels (Miniature Mojo Wolves  :D)


And some group shots:



I picked the legionaires up a cut price from a friend. As a result of their second hand nature I've ah... included some females. Actually I have almost double the number of women as men sitting about. So, backtracking a little in front of canon, I think I'll pitch them as "an off shoot segment of the Legion, far from the influence of the main body of the group. Their leader's have applied their own ethos to their culture (like in Nuka Break...sure)". ...Oi shuttit that sounded completely feasible.

Wasteland Critters
Glowing Ones (Reaper Bones, applying the F3 scheme to such a fleshy model was a chore ...I'm no good at chores)


Bark Scoprions (Reaper Bones)


Rat Swarms( And guess what? Reaper Bones. ...What the blisters they come in are £1.20 each!)



And here's where the next few nights are heading. Trogs! ^^



Alongside him (a Games Workshop Gretchin with a GW ghoul head swap), and his fellow Trog bandits, I've picked up a box of goblins from The Hobbit that'll make suitable mutated Troglodite cannibals.


Aside from the Trogs I bought some glue (huzzah!), and so popped into one of my flgs to pick up a little something I've had my eye on. A Airfix Jackel transporter vehicle. What for? Well after the Greyhound ram vehicle (Bull/Bovin) I think that my Legionaire's Praetorian (when he gets built that is) could do with a suitable transport, and well it looks suitably modern enough to add a more techy element to my existing vehicle pool (despite that it'll be getting covered in warpaint and perhaps a few corpses). Taking suggestions on names for this beefy ride?  :D 
For ye who don't know what I'm talking about. This sexy beast.




Oh, and here's a quick shot of one of my terrain boxes. Only a portion of this one's actually finished (typical), but it looks like that one's my odds and ends pile. Depending on how slow I am at finishing the actual models I may chuck up some shots of that stuff here (such a tease).

Heh, beneath that it reads, "Royal Wedding Castle Playset". Considering that box's full of corrugated shacks I hate to wonder what the prospects are for the monarchy in this world...
