Crawl out through the Fallout…

First entry in awhile, and it is bears! Mangy, radioactive, angry bears as seen beating up Knights in power armour. Rawr.

One is rad-burned but otherwise a normal Yao Guai. The other is a ‘glowing one’ hence the sickly green tones and lots of boils. It hasn’t come out quite as glowing as I was aiming for but I think I got the sickly not-right look.

After a long break between new minis (played a fair few games since though), I picked up the Institute core set and have been trucking through it.

First up, have the Gen 1 Synths.

This kit is from TTCombat and is a very wallet friendly way to add some flexible ruins to my table.  Each house can split into two halves which is very useful!

First of the three characters in the Boston Companions set to see paint is the X6-88 Courser.

Very quick and simple paint job here, the coat is Game Colour Extra Opaque Heavy Charcoal mixed with Game Colour Shadow grey for highlighting.

Vault suits. Vault suits never change. Well, they have a bit but they are certainly iconic!

This is an expansion for the Survivors faction that I just had to get and was fun to paint up. These will be good for a Vault themed list and as AI scenario characters.

I had fun with this set! Elder Maxson in his padded jacket is one of my favourite sculpts so I had been looking forward to it.

The power armoured figure is also Elder Maxson, but could easily be used as a regular Brotherhood of Steel Paladin.

The third figure is Lancer Captain Kells and was another nice sculpt to paint up.

It just wouldn’t be Fallout without a Vault to discover, would it?

This is 3d printed with polyfiller, sand and cork added for texture/gap filling.  It will sit on a board edge for scenario purposes and possibly combined with my battlesystems card interiors terrain if I want to do a Vault Interior.

I am considering knocking out some rocky cliff face pieces to go alongside it at some point to create a more substantial board edge/ rocky protrusion. Time will tell!

I have had this FDM 3d print sat about for awhile needing something done with it.  It was a rough print (I think my brother’s printer had some nozzle issue when this was done) so I decided to half bury it and weather the crap out of it!

I didn’t want to spend too long on it so slapped on a Vallejo Jade Green bascoat, then did a very crude highlighting/faded paint pass by mixing the green with some bonewhite.

Then I liberally drybrushed gunmetal over it, followed by Typhus Corrosion and Ryza Rust, then finished with drybrushing plate mail silver.

That’ll do, a mangled old wreck for the Wasteland!

And with that, I’m calling these done and moving on.  The barrels have been rusted up with some Typhus Corrosion & Ryza Rust, and I tried to add a bit of glow to the radioactive fungi.

The goopy water is AK Interactive’ Swamp Water effect.  Which funnily enough is a thick goop!
