I mean redo of Prime as in - they're building their own out of what they can find and get to work. c:
He's like the tin-man.

My BoS is like a conglomerate of chapters coming together in the hunt for this facility. Clearing through to reach the heart of Dallas. Raiders taken over, massive groups of them wiping out most resistance.

Lawless indeed, except in townships where militia hold up to keep them out.
This is set a good while after NV mind.
NCR rolling in from the West, BoS pushed from the North to end up near Fort Worth and having their way North cut off by a focused band of Raiders who took over The Colony and turned it into a metropolis/ hellhole.

BoS are recruiting, offering jobs and pay and all manner of fronts to look like the good guys so the populace will turn on the NCR and offer the BoS the space to grow and build up their station to take out the Raiders. Legions been pushed well back by some truly crazy individuals (Three main factions of Raiders all came together to push them out. A road-gang who managed to fix up vehicles, a scary-as-hell gang who use psychoactive chembombs to throw the victim into a hysterical fit of fear. The kind that has to drop and curl up like a baby, crying your eyes out as you hallucinate. If your heart doesn't kick it, you're taken away as slaves to be sold to the Colony or kept as.. "pets".
And the Colony itself holding thousands of raiders living in a scrap-metal haven that looks reminiscent of the worst areas of The Pitt. Constantly falling apart and killing hundreds.

On top of that, the Courier found his way there and brought along a pissed-off old acquaintance who now calls himself the "Bogeyman". He's holed up in the pipes that sat around an old reservoir that got vaporised by a bomb. Stalks around and butchers people infrequently.
The Courier acts almost like House did, he's the loners choice, since he fucked up the Nevada BoS and bombed the NCR back home, they're both after his head. He just wants to clear out the raiders and let the people live their lives in relative peace.

Eh, I lump "vault" in with "generic underground complex" a lot. It'll make up any scenario where I need people running around in tunnels! :D

& Yes, I have lots of those. I'm working on the pilot figures at the moment, however. Bared and muscley arms with TINY hands and silly looking heads.

If anyone fancies a few of those troopers, just send me a nod x3
If you'd like an apocalyptic monster in 28mm, throw me a PM and I'll think it over.

It ain't much, but it's something.
I'll be honest, for a good few months depression's been on top. I just look at all these models and want to slowly slide it all into the bin.

So, currently plan is as follows;

Finish off the dragons new hands. I've spent a lot of time delaying that lately because one is great and I couldn't get the other one the same.
Mold arms, old and new poses.
Mold the now-finished baby-claw.
Mold at least 5 flies to a sprue

I want to get some bits done for the mutant. A sledge and a plank of wood with some nails in are sat to the side, just need a hand or two to match them, then I can pair up some arms for the rifle shown. Maybe a head or two and then I will make a mold of the basic mutant. I'm working on fitting one with a minigun currently, but trying to set plans and schedules around a void of thought isn't helping it get done.

The little gecko needs hands and some facial details finished off before he's ready to go..

I did a test-run of the alternate torsos for the extra mutated mutant, some weird miscast went on which was pretty much expected from instant-mold, but the affect was only more gruesome.


So uh.. How has everyone been? I've neglected just about every thread I've lurked over the last few months!

Arms are too long.

Oi, where's the balloon? >:D

Nice to see things coming along since you last posted anything. I mean well, that crab creature's no Behemoth, but still, it'll do. Nah, good work on that young underwater hero. Its always nice to hear that someone's giving up on their working life to put together more minis. ;)

Tsk, this reminds me I still have another two of your Things to paint. ...Uh, yeah, I'll see about those. *just gimme a few more months. ^^

In that time, the extra bits might have been cast up!

Speaking of, I'll attach a poor image of one of those bits (I made an instant-mold.. mold of the part to paint a copy)


(By the way, you should all hit the first page and look at the first post to see the balloon..)

How big is it? Can we see a mini next to it? The terrain board looks a little flat, perhaps some additional weathering would help  lol
