fallout, the glow (west tek research facility)

[grinner357]

Hi everyone. i'm planning on building a game board of the glow, aka the west tek facility, and am having the darndest time locating a source for the screens/monitors, computers, etc that are in the place. i've gotten just about everything else sourced to some extent or another, but i havent been able to find anything that fits for these (see pic).. any suggestions? i've got the entire facility mapped out on grid paper so i have a rough idea what size i need, but so far no joy

Nothing that looks like a direct copy, but some of these bits might help:

Black Cat has some computer stuff: http://blackcatbases.com/index.php?main_page=advanced_search_result&search_in_description=1&keyword=computer&x=0&y=0

one armed bandit might work if you lee off the lever thingy: http://blackcatbases.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=430_442_476&sort=20a&page=2

Armorcast has this: http://armorcast.com/store/product_info.php?cPath=120_34&products_id=207

Ainsty has a couple of bits and pieces that could be of use:

- http://ainstycastings.co.uk/product_info.php/cPath/59/products_id/590
- http://ainstycastings.co.uk/product_info.php/cPath/59/products_id/592

- http://ainstycastings.co.uk/product_info.php/cPath/52/products_id/462 (an arcade machine, but with a bit of modification just might work)

There is a lot of good pices on the hirst arts molds. When I get home I'll try to get som examples for you.

Aintsy and Hirst have some stuff that'll work for some of the screens and the bio-tube/chamber things, but most of it doesnt quite do it for me.. thank you for all the suggestions, though, i appreciate it. and if anyone is curious about the scale, each floor tile/wall panel looks to be about 1 1/2 inches, and each section looks to be divided up into 1/2 inch sections, ie the T junctions are 1/2 on either side of the T, and all the walls are 1/2 inch thick, and 3" high. total map size is approx 39 1/2 by 45 1/2 (at least, these are the scales/dimensions i'm using to creat the gameboard itself; this roughly correlates to 28-40mm game scales)

For the computers you might want to check out the Scotia Grendel Sci-fi consoles:

Spartan scenics has some pieces too:

I believe you might also find suitable pieces at Armorcast:

And you could try Copplestone's KKBB bits and pieces, too (under Props and Equipment):

Armorcast is really bad on delivery. I'm still waiting for a relatively small 108$ order that I placed on 4/20. It's ridiculous.

Try getting some SmoothCast 300 on MisterArt.com (20$) and a sci-fi mold from Hirst Arts:

You can make quite good replicas of the Fallout 2 scenery using these molds, and from someone who has done it for years, it's REALLY easy.

Fenris have a set of terminals in their incursion objective range that I plan to use for sci fi.

Another source would be antenociti's which has a large selection of SSL fi gubbins.

Doesn't antenociti do screens and stuff?

Doesn't antenociti do screens and stuff?

I believe so yes. I know they do small control panels for doors etc.

[grinner357]

um, i think you made that order on the wrong day, . but maybe thats just me

Here in these picture is my hirst arts versions of the first console.


If it is any help

The machinery mold has a lot of pieces that can be used for some of the others at least.
