After seeing so many gorgeous fallout projects, i couldn't resist to start my own.
Here come the pics:
My interpretation of a Pulowski Preservation Shelter:

Post-Apocalyptic Truck (in the meantime i found out that the "1950 Chevy Cab" looks exactly like the Trucks in Fallout 3, so there will be more Trucks and Cars in the future)

And finally a Chrylus Ad and a group shot of my growing Wastelander Army:

I hope this topic still adds variety to the fallout miniature universe. Any comments are very welcome!
-
hip, hip, huzzah :)
-
where did you get the 3 wheelers? also the poster and board its mounted on? they look great the truck is just right too! i will be posting my scrapyard this week, and maybe a shot of all my terrain ive done so far..love the shelters as well! how to?
-
Nice. Those Messerschmitt 3-wheelers are so cute. Of course, you now need Triumph Spitfires for an opposing faction!
-
You have raised multiple questions now, lad...
What did you use for the 3 wheelers? I am jealous...
And I envy you coming up with the use of the Star Wars turret cannons for Pulowskis - I scratched some together out of tube and bottle caps , but I may go back and make a few more out of these. Lovely stuff you have here. Where did you get the decals for Fallout Shelter and Radiation Symbols?
-
Kabinenroller for the win! lol
That looks very nice. Those turrets are StarWars models or toys, I assume?
-
Good morning, here are the answers:
The 3-Wheelers are 2x Messerschmitt Kabinenroller from Gama and the bigger one is a Heinkell "Bubble Car" from Corgi Toys all 1/43 Scale
The Pulowski Shelters are Star Wars turrets from the Wizard of the Coast CMG. They are called "Golan Arms D9 Anti-Infantry Battery".
The Fallout Shelter Decals are printouts. You can get them here:
http://doorfromhellradio.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/falloutsheltersigns.jpg
The Chryslus Ad is from the Internet too. But i can't find it anymore. So, here it comes:
(http://i570.photobucket.com/albums/ss150/Arcturus_Mengsk/Fallout%20Project/xman_chryslus.jpg)
The Billboard comes with several 1/43 Cars from the 50's from "Road Champs".
-
That looks like a very solid start to some post-apoc gaming :)
Like everyone else, I really like those three wheelers.
More please :)
-
Fantastic! Really inspiring and it really feels like Fallout 8). What did you use for the sign stand (the one where the chryslus ad is in)?
-
Excellent start! Lots of characters in these - love the fallout shelters!
Like everyone else, I have another question to throw into the ring - what ranges are the miniatures from? One or two look familiar, but I can't place them, and the others I don't know at all. They look great, in any case!
-
The Billboard comes with "Road Champs" 1950's 1/43 Cars.
The two Big guys are Outlaw Trash from Foundry's Street Violence Range, The Punk Chick is one of Scabie's Punks also from the Street Violence range.
The pointing guy is from the old Grenadier Future Wars Series. Now available through em4 or Mirliton.
The guy with the gasmask is the "Masked One" from Black Cat Bases.
The skeletons in the cars are posable skeleton armatures from Ebob.
-
If you pester Ian at Fenris Games he's got billboards in the WIP pile.
Oh don't worry I'll pester him! :D
Nice step up and nice figures. For futuristic cars you should try to source a set of the Marx toys cars of the future, perfect for fallout and a few people here including me have got a few sets.
Looking forward to more posts on this.
The Commander
-
Those bubble cars are lovely! Very cool all round.
-
I have a couple of those plastic Marx cars left if you need them Arcturus Don't think I'll need 10 of them. I can miss 4 of 'em. I'll also add in some Fallout weapons if you'd like 'em (Combat Shotgun, Assault Rifle, Chinese Assault Rifle, Flamer).
-
Thanks, Arcturus. EM4! I knew I had seen that guy somewhere recently! Very nice minis - looking forward to seeing this project develop.
-
Brilliant - skellies are a nice touch!
-
Nice work there!
You can't have too much Fallout imo, at least if it's spread over several threads I can control my drooling... :D
-
Thanks for all the nice comments and support.
@ Commander Vyper: Thanks for the hint with the Marx Cars. I already have three sets of them waiting to get painted.
@ Malebolgia: Thanks for the offer but i already have lots of Marx Cars and spare weapons from TAG.

-
Amazing!
-
Trucks - amazing!
Minis - amazing!
Union Jack on Raider's t-shirt - amazing!
Assorted Junk - amazing!
That's a lot of amazing, in case you weren't paying attention. Very, very nice! And so, of course, a question - what ranges are the trucks from, and what scale are they? They look....PERFECT! (you thought I was going to say "amazing", didn't you....)
-
The trucks scale is 1:43. They are from Ertl. "1950 Chevy Cab"
I got mine from ebay: oldtoystoreusa
http://cgi.ebay.com/Ertl-1950-Chevrolet-Garbage-Truck-1-43-MIB-21624p-/310211146574?cmd=ViewItem&pt=Diecast_Vehicles&hash=item483a06734e
The Nuka Cola Truck is simply a converted Garbage Truck. The "Winn Dixie" truck can be bought as shown here but i think its OOP.
-
I love the trucks especially the nuka cola one :)
-
Love em all, they are excellent.
The weathering is awesome! :)
-
Brilliantly executed project. Amazing stuff.
Probably a silly question but... who makes these mattresses? :)
-
The mattresses and the couches are from Black Cat Bases.
-
There superb, some excellent looking wastelander miniatures in theere, the skeletons are a superb idea.
The rust on the vechiles is excellent too.
-
Cool, is that a Speak And Spell hanging from the raider's belt?
-
Thank you for the reply! :) Keep up the great work! Very inspirational.
-
Lovely trucks, now I wish I had a couple!

Don't we all...? :)

is that a Speak And Spell hanging from the raider's belt?
I do belive it is
-
Haha Speak and Spell - that takes me back!
Great trucks - is that Nuka Cola logo a transfer?
-
The Nuka Cola Logo is a printout from the Internet.
One of those replacement bandages for Coca Cola-bottles.

-
Cool stuff! I haven't spotted this thread before now.
-
Don't we all...? :)
You can say that again, surfing these forums can be lethal for your credit card...
-
So I am curious on the trucks (which I was able to get a couple of) how did you weather them so well, is that some sort of "weathering chalk"? Basically how did you get them to look so dilapidated (it's the same technique you used on your cars). Is it a wash?
Inquiring and inspired painters would love to know.
Thanks.
-
The Nuka Cola truck was completely stripped and repainted. Then just drybrushed several browns and blacks on.
The rest of the trucks was disassembled and treated with a wire brush to remove paint and break the sealing varnish open. After that i scratched more paint off with a screwdriver and a knife.
Next step is to take enamel paint (i use Revell "rust" colour, think it's even called so), thin it or use it straight from the pot. Paint all parts and rub the still wet paint away with kitchen roll. The rust paint stays in the crevices and even the altered areas keep a rusty haze.
A good finish is to drybrush a light beige on everything. Which i haven't done on all of the trucks/cars.
Hope that helps. I hope on the weekend there will be a little update with some more Raiders and maybe another truck.
-
As promised here's the update:

Any comments are very welcome.
-
Very nice stuff!
-
Brilliant!
-
What a great project and effort!
Especially love the raiders, but everything is top notch! :-*
-
Excellent! The raiders are fantastic (the Last King of Scotland in particular - where are the minis from?), the loot counters are spot on, and the van is pure brilliance. Great project!
-
Excellent new stuff, absoloutley excellent.

The Raiders are a mixture of Foundry Street Violence "Scaby's Punks, EM4 and Kallsitra Sci-Fi Miniatures

Thanks for the links, Arcturus - what's next on the Fallout horizon?
-
Next thing in the pipeline is a unit of Light Enclave Infantry, which is in fact nothing special, just 6 of the EM4 Troopers in NBC suits.
In the medium and long run there will be a Supermutant Behemoth, more Wasteland Scum/Scavengers, Enclave Armed Drones, Talon Company and Freelance Mercenaries, Trader(s), Enclave Power Armour Troopers, maybe some Supermutants, Red Rocket Fueling Station, a Diner, Robots, more post apocalyptic garbage . . .
-
Well, that lot should keep you out of trouble! Looking forward to seeing the project develop even more!
-
Excellent work! I am still creeping along on mine, but your painting is putting me to shame. Beautiful!
-
No update for a long time...
but i have finished some wasteland scum, some enclave infantry and a terrain piece. Any commetns are very welcome.

Ive been wondering for a while now, why no one has made use of Space Marines as either Enclave or Brotherhood units, they seem like the perfect choice given the customisibility and ready avaible source of miniatures. Great stuff.
-
Wow, great work on everything! I like your Kallistra conversion (the heavy weapon) and your paintjob on basically everything. The paintjob on the power armour is a bit rough though, too many metal coloured chippings I think. The scenery is absolutely beatiful!
-
No update for a long time...
but i have finished some wasteland scum, some enclave infantry and a terrain piece. Any commetns are very welcome.
Wasteland Scum:
(http://i570.photobucket.com/albums/ss150/Arcturus_Mengsk/Fallout%20Project/Groupshot.jpg)
Ok where are these from, thinking Ratnik for some of the more metro 2033 looking ones but spill the beans! ;)
-
They look like GW's Ash Waste Nomads with some conversion work.
-
@ The MightyFlip: I think nobody wants to use Space Marines because the "Evil Empire" makes them.
@ Commander Vyper: One half is from GW: Necromunda Scavvies (all of them more or less converted), the other half is form the Kallistra Future Range (the heavy weapons dude is a conversion)
-
oops, I meant Scavvies...
-
Awesome additions! :-*
As for the GW Space Marine query... I think the real reason for their non-use is that they look so obviously like GW Space Marines, so it would be difficult to pass them off as anything else without major conversion. Instead of 40k figures in a Fallout setting, the whole thing becomes just another 40k setting. They are just too recognisable to use effectively.
-
Wow - fantastic project. I love every thing. Why didnt I think about Skeles in my wrecks??
-

I agree if you build them as Space Marines, but use different heads, leave off any skulls, backpacks and shoulder pads, not to mention different weapons and I think you have some decent power armored troopers.
-
Beautiful Scum! It's not everyday you get the chance to say that! I thought they might be Necroumunda scavvies, but they look perfect. Great weapon swaps, fantastic painting. Wonderful.
As for the Red Rocket fuel station - AMAZING! I'm guessing the rocket itself is a plastic toy of some sort, but what about the letters on the sign? By the way, the painting on the sign is beautifully done. Great weathering, and the red still looks vibrant through it. The building of the station itself - is it Plasticville? You've done an amazing job, whatever the source. I love the carwash!
Absolutely fantastic work!
-
The Rocket is a Toy indeed. It works with baking soda and vinegar. I ordered two. One for my station and one for the kids.
Here's a link, but i think you can get them cheaper on ebay.
http://www.adorablekidsdressup.com/product/SCBSVR.html
I added some cardboard stripes and rivets from Naval modelbuilding (over 120 holes drilled and rivets glued)
Here's a WIP Picture:
(http://i570.photobucket.com/albums/ss150/Arcturus_Mengsk/Fallout%20Project/RRFront.jpg)
The letters are self-adhesive letters for creating individual car markings.
The station building is an OOP german manufactured toy. I picked it up from ebay for 1 buck. Manufacturer is called "JEAN".
-
Excellent - thanks, Arcturus. Inspired use of the rocket, by the way. I'll definitely be borrowing the idea for my modern/post apocalypse board.
Looking forward to whatever is next.
-
@ The MightyFlip: I think nobody wants to use Space Marines because the "Evil Empire" makes them.
I didn't because they just did not look right.

Red Rocket.................. :o

Another Update: I managed to finish some more of the Post-Apoc stalkerlike stuff from Ratnik.

-
I really like the ratnik minis and your paintjob is doing them justice indeed.
The sentry bot looks nice, converted from a Warbot from hydra?
-
The Sentry Bot is indeed a converted Warbot from Hydra Miniatures. I added some Space Marine Terminator arms, a Grenade Launcher from the Wargames Factory Shock Troops and the legs are made from the arms of a Star Wars CMG T-1 Bulk Loader droid, some wire and wooden pearls.
-
I never tire of seeing decent Fallout projects - like the bubblecars in particular
:D
-
Eye candy!!!
:-*
-
Great stuff. I love those Ratnik minis. I think I need to add some to my collection.
The robot is ace. Where did you get him?
-
This is a brilliant thread. You have an amazing collection of post-apocalyptic goodness!
Where did you buy the Ratnik Stalker figures?
-
Lovely stuff - the Ratnik minis look great, and the basing is fantastic. I love the brick stacks!
Very, very cool. As always, looking forward to more.
-
@ mattblackgod: The Robot is a converted Hydra Miniatures Warbot:
http://shop.hydraminiatures.com/product_info.php?cPath=2_31&products_id=32
The other parts are mentioned above.
@ Earther: I ordered the Ratnik Figures directly from Russia:
http://toyarmies.com/catalog/32
So in my case everything went perfectly well. Fast delivery and a pleasant transaction, but you have to pay via Western Union, since Paypal is not available in Russia.
-
Thanks Arcturus.
-
I can second Arcturus' experience with Ratnik. I purchased a set of the Stalker minis and had no problems.

Who make the gas masked pump shotgun guy? I don't see him on the Leadadventures miniatures.

This one is from Ratnik, but not yet released by LAM. Hope they will do so soon, since i think i get me another set in lead. :D

I know this is threadomancy but here comes a tiny update on my fallout project. Hope to post more updates soon.

Nothing wrong with Threadomancy, especaly when its some thing cool like this.
-
Love the "Drifter Leader" well painted.
Was checking out
Wreck Age the other day.
Interesting stuff.
-
Very nice miniature. :-*
I don't mind the threadomancy at all.
Especially when its such a great thread and such a great addition to it.
Thanks for posting it.
-
Great work, nice to see some wel thought out and painted post-apoc stuff.
It's difficult to call it threadomancy when you're showing it's still a live project and not at all dead.

A "Drifter Leader" for the Wreck-Age RPG from Hyacinth Games:
very nice, it's the first time i see some wreck age minis painted! =)
-
What scale is Wreck Age going to be in?
Edit: Nevermind. I just noticed the thread talking about the game. Nice mini, by the way. :-*

C&C welcome.

Looking great!
I am slowly regaining enthusiasm for my own Fallout project and threads like these are always an inspiration :)
-
very impressed by the vending machines! where are those from?
-
The Vending Machines are from Black Cat Bases:

-
Nice additions. :-*
The skeleton adds a lot of flavor and the bomb looks cool.
Great, now I need to buy vending machines! >:(
-
Fantastic!
-
Excellent stuff! :-*
-
Very nice! I used that exact same bomb in my Trash Bash entry.
-
Thanks for all the nice comments, guys.
@ James: Your Trash Bash Entry was exactly where i saw it and immediately ordered a bunch of the "Big Bang Rockets" from the UK. :D Thanks for the inspiration.
-
Nice work!
-
Arcturus: I'm really pleased! I have the crater all carved out of foam to do exactly the same kind of thing; I just need to pick up another bomb the next time I pass by that sweet shop. Doing a little Megaton scenic was the first thought I had when I saw them. I even have a bunch of WWII Soviet aircraft decals for the same kind of look.
-
Seems to be a case of mutual inspiration. Hope you will show the finished piece here on LAF.
-
I amde mine out of PVC piping caps, but this is well done, sir! Good to see this project still going!
-
Time for Threadomancy once again. I finally finished some barricades and a storage tank. The bunch of BOS guys is new as well.

Enjoy!

Oh yes i enjoyed this update very much. :o
I love the scenery in the last pictures especially the tank with the excellent rust effects.
You have also a very nice collection of wreck age and Brother Vinnie miniatures.
fantastic stuff!
-
Great work! The barbed wire looks nice on the top of those!
And the logo on the tank is great! how did you do it?
btw, i recognize some Wreck Age scenery! ;) And.. that container wall it's sculpted by me! ^_^
Funny thing, i worked on postapoc barricades yesterday as well!
-
Thnaks guys. :)
The logo on the tank is just a glued on printout.
Yep, the barricades are Wreck-Age conversions.
-
Bloody marvelous !
I really like the effect of the scaled paint, and yes, the rust and the logo are ace as are the BoS conversions :-*
-
Wonderful stuff! I've probably already written that before, but it is certainly worth repeating. Richard
-
Really nice, I love the new additions!
:-*
-
Absolutely brilliant stuff! Love how you painted your Brotherhood models!
-
Fantastic work.
I'm very impressed by the retro 50's look. Very Heavy Metal (mag not the music) and I have to say the Red Rocket fuel station is outstanding.
Very inspirational.
-
Looking great!
Love the rust and the brotherhood.
-
Thanks for all the nice comments. That really keeps me going and thus it's update time again. It's some older stuff which i never managed to take photos + photos of my finished storage tank project. WIP pictures can be seen in the Workbench-Section.

:o
That is some serious cool stuff.
Planning on making an air force base with those quonset huts ?
-
At the moment i'm planning to do enough industrial themed terrain to do a full scale industrial board. Just bought two awesome toy sets with cranes and stuff yesterday from ebay. Hope it's the right size.
But i always wanted an excuse to buy one or two 1:48-scale flyers. Well an airforce base might just be this excuse. :D
-
WOOW!!! :o this is excellent stuff
I love your barracks, the tanks your huge waste counters the tents.
This is awesome stuff.
Do you sell some of your stuff because you made so many tanks and barracks or do you build such a huge table?
I love what you do!
-
Thanks, SerialMoM.
You can get the Huts quite cheap at Webshops: 6 Huts for about 16 €.
For example here:
http://www.magierspiele.de/product_info.php?products_id=217003
For the rest i have to say sorry but it's not for sale. I'm always more than happy if real live leaves enough time to get anything done at all and besides the table will be 2 x 1.4 metres with the option to go for a smaller 1.4 x 1.2 metre table. So i really need all that terrain. :D
-
This is looking better and better, Arcturus. Well done! I think I am going to get a few of those Dust Quonsets for a Nellis Air Field board...
-
I really like the scenery, your gaming table will be amazing.
-
:-* the ventilation towers turned out really well. Not bad for an old pc fan and a pack of chips.
I like the mound of car wreck and various parts. I like the little details and the differential/suspension setup. Nice.
Yeah you need some MIG kits and 1/48 sci Fi kits to kitbash.
Cheers
Matt.
