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!

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!

They look like GW's Ash Waste Nomads with some conversion work.
So many projects..... so little time.......

@ 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)

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.

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.
