*shivers* ahhhhh! good to see you finally back in the hobby action again! the raiders are looking very good! tho some tweaks if possible could make them perfect...

the baseball chap could look better if you could do something about the clip of his SMG... looks fishy in these pics...

the autoshotgun while cool as hell could look better if you make a new stock for this one... the current one is way underproportioned as is...

by the way... those stel plates are a very good looking background for your mini presentations...

as for the dwarves... okidoki... was just thinking about your better half when i saw these... but i will keep my eyes open if i happen to see others send my best wishes !

lone dirty dog wrote:Yes, there was loads of kits in that line including minis OK they might not be that great but they have conversion potential just depends on the scale
I dont know who the UK distributor is or even if we have one shame they have a lot of potential indeed

I own pretty much the whole Robogear range (those sprues Dave just bought must be new, I hadn't seen them before) and I can tell you, the scale is to large, but they have potential for machinery etc.
You can order bitz from those kits via http://www.hoardobits.com/
I had the luck to find I german online shop that cleared its stock of robogear two years ago. It was a 75% discount on kits that were already incredibly cheap. A package of two army deals (50 miniatures each) for 30€ and the likes.

I love the Fall Out work your doing. I played that game for 8 hours straight when it came out and never picked it back up after that.

I do have a airbrush question that I need some of your expertise . Do you mind if I pm you?

Sure Marty! PM away!

8 Hrs??

Am I an addict?

112 hours... no, I wouldn't say addict. I've clocked up 312 hours for New Vegas alone... If you're an addict I should be very worried.

Yay! Thanks Dr. H! My new favorite Enabler!
Some paint

No problem. Just looked up my saves for FO3 and that's a total of ~370 hours. I know I passed 1000 hours for Oblivion and I recently passed 700 hours for Skyrim... Consider yourself enabled.

And the painting looks good btw.

Call me when you break the clock, like you could in FFVII... the clock stopped registering after a while... god knows how many hours i had put into that game, considering all characters were levelled to the max....

YES! FF7 Was an addictive bastard wasn't it?

damn skippy... now where did I put my copy... hmmm... time to lose another 3 months of my life redoing I think

Or shall I go back to FO:3...

...whatever I do... I only have two weeks to finish it until AC:3

Tuesday Dishonored comes out...I'll be playing that.

Dishonored looks really cool. I think I may take the plunge as well.
Steam Punk Assassins Creed

unfortunately I can only afford one game before christmas, and I've known about AC:3 for nigh on a year... so the dye has been cast so to speak for me

so... he is gaming like blazes in FO and still has time to unpack suply drops, chat on dakka and also is able to paint up minis...which leaves me asking... is dave only able to do this while wearing pampers?

Colonial Assassin reminds me of Mel Gibson's character in the Patriot.
I guess namely because of tomahawk and badassdom

Nite Vik!

nite!

Liking the raiders so far dave! and once you get to 127 hours you have to cut off your arm, its the rules!

Looks like it came right out of the game!

reminds me of the mirelurk quest for moira (s.p. is that her name?)

Yep, that survival guide got tedious to make at times.

tbh... I got away with Lying a fair few times

stupid woman

my skill wasn't exactly high either lols...



BTW, Dave, are you going to buy the armorcast Brahmin? I'm tempted for a diorama of some kind maybe...

AWESOME FALLOUT!
Sweet raiders, and that terrain! That looks like it will be very cool very fast =D

PS cheers for doing fallout mini research, had no idea about that amorcast stuff =)

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! omg dave you just gave me a pants tent showing me those sprues and I've already found them and will be buying some tomorrow to build what i hope will be an awesome Gothic grim dark surgery room or Xenos dissection room? :-) gonna be saweeeet!

And on a side note, i haven't forgotten to send you the machining tools, i just want to get some other bits and bobs to send to you to make the package worthwhile :-)

Cool, thanks Nerd, no hurry on that stuff, I have a bunch of casts of the floor tiles for you, I haven't heard back from Galorn about the mold yet though, I figure I'll send you samples of all of them, then you can pick which ones you want a mold of.

Vik, the shotgun stock was properly sized, but I had to cut it down to fit into his arm, what do you mean fishy on the SMG?

Thanks Two Spartan!

@Childe- you can get away with lying to her, but each step you do properly or improperly during the whole "Wasteland Survival Guide" questline has an effect later on.

The questline is a pain in the ass, but there are 15 variations of permanent perks you can get modifying poison res, Rad resist, DMG resist, Crit chance, sneak, medicine, speech, and Health, from +2 to +6 depending on how well you do on the guide. Entire sets of random mini-encounters throughout the wasteland are also tied to this quest.

If you convince Moira not to write it in the first place, you take a huge Karma hit and get the dream crusher perk:
"Something about your presence dampens others' desires to excel. While it can be a drag at parties, it has the happy coincidence of lowering an enemy's chance of a Critical hit on you by 50%. A dull bore is a safe bore." She still gives you a 30% discount and her repair skills improve.

If you write a good guide, you'll encounter random wastelanders hunting molerats who say things like "because of this guide my family is up to two meals a day now" etc.

The questline is a pain, but well worth doing it right, and worth doing all the bonus objectives.

well the position of the mag of the SMG looks a bit wrong... you know...that old second edition bolter problem... i always thought that bolter looked akward due to the clip...:



can´t really explain it... maybe just ignor my ramblings^^

and...when looking for a bolter pic i found this conversion...nice, eh?
