War. War Never Changes..........

[emperorpenguin]

I've been wanting to start a Fallout project for quite some time and finally decided to take the plunge. I'm a huge fan of the computer game series and am quite excited to see how it transfers to tabletop gaming.

So I ordered a number of old Kryomek Nexus SWAT figures off ebay to create an Enclave Patrol team, however 3 weeks later and they are still not here.

Next I ordered Viridian assault marines to be Brotherhood of Steel, but after a two week delay they have only just been posted.

Step into the breach Troll Forged Miniatures, who incredibly speedily sent me 5 of their Trenchers who will form the basis for my New California Republic patrol force.

This is what I have so far, just a couple of coats of Devlan Mud and Gryphonne Sepia. I am ordering some M16s to go with these guys as their 'service rifles'. I gave up on trying to paint the 2 headed bear on their chestplates, much too difficult! But I really like these guys, the goggles and face wraps are just perfect for NCR.









The attachment is my first attempt at creating Nuka-Cola bottlecaps as loot counters/objectives/random encounters

So what is next for this project? Well I have a giant radscorpion model and Eschers for raiders.

However I plan to put together the following

NCR 1st Recon sniper, NCR Veteran Ranger & NCR Ranger
A conturbernium of Caesar's Legion
Super Mutants
Ghouls
New Vegas Securitrons
Protectrons
Vault Dwellers
Wastelanders

Finally I'm off to the toy shop this weekend to look for an American school bus and plastic cows (for Brahmin conversions)

I hope this plog will be of some interest to other Fallout fans here on Warseer

Dude, yes, Nuka Cola Bottle cap for the objective markers. Love it.

[deathskullork]

hell yes. cant wait to see what you have in store I love fallout.

[Mr. Ultra]

Yeaaaah! Fallout RULES! And NCR is my favourite faction! Any possibilty to see a Vault entrance as scenery? That would be mor than awesome!

[IceSword]

Nice! I sculpted those things in 2008, this is the first I've seen anyone actually use them for something.

I was pretty inspired by Fallout too, my site has the references for the master sculpts for the mutants if you need to see them.

That would be really cool, I think I'll need to add that to my scenery to-do list.
Speaking of which it didn't get off to a good start this weekend. Could not find an american school bus in any toy or model shop, may need to try online. Also no luck with plastic toy cows!

They're really nice models IceSword, well done. I like your mutants, they'd make good "Point Lookout" types

[emperorpenguin]

Still awaiting many things in the post. The Enclave models I ordered off ebay never showed, neither did a figure I intended for BOS.

But what I did get were Veteran legionaries from Warlord and a para sniper.

So here's my NCR troops (so far) in a group shot


Officer with the flag of the NCR


First Recon marksman with scoped hunting rifle


A conturbernium of Caesar's Legion. Tricky to build these guys, but I've managed to give a few of them SMGs and hunting rifles. The pila are throwing spears. Going to be difficult to paint the Golden Bull on the Vexillarius' standard, I may cheat!

[emperorpenguin]

Update time

Just like waiting for buses, two packs of models arrived yesterday.

First up a New Vegas Securitron, needs a clearer face pic



Protectron



NCR Ranger in combat armour with assault carbine



The Brotherhood of Steel

[emperorpenguin]

The Enclave arrives



I had intended making the small horns for their helmets ala Fallout 3 but couldn't find my green stuff anywhere.

These guys will be Hellfire troopers/heavy weapons



And lastly every Enclave squad needs an officer in command

[Velsharoon]

I am also gonna be doing a Fallout style world, while there are plenty of raider types out there I wish there were some actual Fallout miniatures

Good luck your off to a great start already.

[DarthSte]

Very nice plog!

Thanks Velsharoon, I look forward to seeing yours too, anything Fallout or Post-Apocalyptic grabs my attention

I'd love to see Fallout minis too, there's a few "Not-Fallout" minis such as the Monobot in this thread I used as a securitron and Khurasan make 15mm Super Mutants/Mirelurks etc

Have you seen this before? http://www.nma-fallout.com/forum/vie...ca74aa00a3c706
Shame it appears to have come to nothing. Taban worked on Eden instead.

Very nice plog!

Cheers Darth Ste you're like my unofficial cheerleader!


Got my Marx cars of the future today so have been painting them up and then trying to make them look 200 years old. Hopefully have some pics tomorrow.

[DarthSte]

Cheers Darth Ste you're like my unofficial cheerleader!

Think there are only two of your plogs I'm following! It just happens that I'm interested in the ACW and love Fallout!

[deathskullork]

Brilliant progress so far the ncr look perfect. cant wait to see what you do for ghouls ive always had a softspot for them for some reason. keep it up.

Those are my only plogs!

Thanks deathskullork. I ordered some zombie models yesterday so should have ghouls up next week. I just need a couple of zombie heads to put onto "normal" bodies next so I can do non-feral ghouls too.

Onto my latest efforts.

Picked up these Marx cars of the future to use as scenery/cover/deathtraps



This one will be a Police car



Finally my NCR soldiers have their guns and no longer need to use harsh language......



A Veteran Ranger has just arrived from Baja....



And lastly, a pair of Super Mutants, one is a Nightkin

I am a huge fan of Fallout. I have played them all at least 100 times each
I'm actually working on the opening to Vault 101. I just need more material
Can you link to some good models for fallout dioramas and such?

Cheers Fizzy, no one has subbed or rated my plogs before!

I haven't found a good Vault door, think it'll need to be scrath built but here are the links I've been using.

I can't wait for some more Fallout stuff, have been converting some super mutants of my own from WH Ogres.
Are you gonna do any brahmins btw?

I'd love to see those guys. I considered both them and Ogryns as options, there are very few models suitable for Super Mutants out there.

I do indeed want to do Brahmin but thanks to Ireland's now extinct Celtic Tiger, the old cheap toy shops are gone replaced by huge stores selling plastic cows which are several sizes too big and as heavy as a metal dreadnought, so no hope of cutting their heads off.
I found one guy's brahmin idea using Pegasus Hobbies plastic cows, so I'll order a box of those soon.

I myself have no greater interest in the west coast.
My first Fallout game was Fallout 3.
And may I say that it's the best of them. The west coast is a bit too civilized for my taste, with laws, taxation and NCR.
I therefore have mostly East Coast based forces, pretty much random raiders, Muties, ghouls and soon BoS
I could post a pic of my so far only started mutie, if that would be of any interest?
Cheers, Hrokka.
