Nice paint jobs on all those models. You are putting maximum effort into getting the best figures possible, and it shows. The whole set screams fallout. 8) 8)
Beautiful additions to an already fabulous thread!
Marvelous indeed. Now I'm ashamed about the lack of progress I'm displaying  ::)

Awww, it's almost enough to make a guy blush.

Thanks very much, hopefully should have a little more by the end of the week.

Well why don't you get cracking, eh.  :P

(He says after letting his thread go 8 months without updates.)

A few figs didn't quite get finished before I went back to work, but looks like I'll have some time tomorrow to get them done.

No promises, but be on the lookout for a little blue and yellow tomorrow night.  ;)

Thanks!

Now, on to the update:



Vault Dweller #1, from Brother Vinni...



...And #2, also from BroVinni. Blonde may not have been the best choice of hair color, considering the yellow on the Vault suit.



And another BV Protectron, in Vaultie colors.



Another wastelander, this one from the Fantasy Flight Games Adventurers prepaints. Some nice pulpy figures. This one had a rifle from the bits box added, as well as a slight repaint. A good companion to the Desert Ranger from earlier in the thread methinks. Good for a caravan as well.



And lastly, a Glowing One, originally a Heroclix mini.

And of course every shot features a Dust Tactics Quonset Hut adorned with a few posters straight from New Vegas, the images courtesy of Wyrmalla. Thanks Wyrmalla, they've come in handy!

Till next time...

It's getting crowded in post apocalyptia these days... With beautiful figures  :-* :-* :-*

The whole set looks good wulfram. 8) very fallout.

The glowing one is a smart chap, nice trousers sir. Looks like he's found his way into tenpenny tower. :D

There isn't much detail in those huts is there? Looks like 2 card sides and a bit of corrugated card would do. What do you think of them?

Cheers
Matt.

Thanks y'all!

I had considered roughing up the Glowing Ones pants, and may still do it. Those are a bit too good looking for a deranged, radioactive mutant, aren't they... then again, maybe they're evidence of it's last shred of humanity, expressed in the form of a crazed obsession with keeping his pants clean.

I've got another on the way, though this one in a more raggedy state.

I dunno wulfram. I think if you rough them up they will look like dirty nice pants. Your better off writing some funny fluff for him in my book. Perhaps he is more civilized than feral ghouls? Perhaps he ain't feral, perhaps he is just the big boss man?

Cheers
Matt.

Now this next group has taken me a long while, as is evidenced by how long this thread has languished, but they did involve some hefty sculpting (at least by my standards). They are mostly made from GW LOTR Uruk-Hai Scouts, and Mad Robot Sadoukadi Heads.

Lo and Behold! Caesar's Legion!

Legionaries


They're somewhat eclectic in uniform, but as this group is fluffed out as a more independent raiding party led by an aspiring Decanus, I don't really mind.

Frumentari/Explorer


This Frumentari was made from a metal Uruk character, a Warlord Roman Head, and a gun from a Brother Vinni Vaultie. He's watching over this Decanus, possibly grooming him to enter the Frumentarii. The model also works as an Explorer. Unfortunately some paint rubbed off his nose, gotta fix that.

Decanus


The Decanus himself, made from a resin Uruk character, pluse some Wargames Factory Survivor bits and a crest from a Warlord Roman.

So that's my Legion so far, there's still a few legionaries with more varied weapons on the way, and I recently got a box of Uruk Siege Troops to possibly turn into more generic Legion types later down the road.

Very impressive I would not have thought to use the GW Urks but they work well with the warlord heads.

Great job
"Peace" is that brief, glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading.
