Painted up a set of Brother Vinni's Vault Dwellers. They're still a bit shiny, but they'll receive a final layer of dullcote once they have their back number decals (which I'm still waiting for)
Junk is scratchbuilt except wrench and hammer which are 1/35 models pieces.

furthermore 2 radscorpions (plastic figures from a game called Myth)
I was a bit to enthusiastic with the red as the claws aren't supposed to have a red sheen, but I think I can get away with it

Nice job! I especially like the base ornaments.

The scorpions, are those the Stalker game ones?

Very nice zizi!!

That homemade junk on the bases is fantastic. I need to borrow and act upon that idea.

Cheers
Matt.

They're from a game called Myth. Apparently they are called Stalkers in that universe :

It was rather time-consuming for such small items.
The race car is created from styrene rod: sharpened one end for the body en filed a gap for the driver (2 beads of putty) the wheels are discs cut from the same rod as the body.

The paint gun was a bit harder. I drew the basic shape in coreldraw and printed a couple to scale.

I cut out 3 and glued them together for thickness. added some fine metal thread that I straightened out and a disc from again the styrene rod for the paint reservoir.

Surgical Tubing is just some nylon wire I held next to a flame to deform.

Mighty fine work Zizi.

Question: How big are the scorps? Any chance of a scale pic with the Vaulties? I may pick up a few myself...

Scorpion sits on a 50mm MDF base, Vault Dweller stands on a 30mm Fenris base.
Those Scorpions aren't exactly cheap for plastic figs. €23 for the 2 IIRC.

Finaly got round to paint up another BoS paladin. One with a gatling laser this time :

No decals yet, so no numbers on the Dwellers and no BoS logo for this one's shoulder pad for now.

You're makng me want to start a fallout project more and more. Stop it

Great work. I have the myth game too and love the scorpions. heresy miniatures also do a really good scorpion if you are looking for more variety. Roughly the same size too.

Thanks. I think I'm ok with Scorpions. Besides these I got hold of 2 others on the bazaar : one painted and another model unpainted (no idea what manufacturer, but both metals) and then I also have the Pardulon model (resin and a whooping 9cm long...) but I have yet to put that one together.
that said, I wouldn't mind finding some small Scorpions to represent the Bark Scorpions.

Nice minis.

For small scorpions there are some available from Reaper bones. I have them in my thread too.

Here we go

Sexy, sexy Deathclaw. I need to get one of those...

Love the scorpions, too.

beefcake · « **Reply #13 on:** 18 February 2015, 06:41:09 AM »

The glowing one looks great.

Very nice. The base details on the vault dwellers are excellent.
