Yeah, it's from Zinge's ork-sized pistol sprue, I believe. I got them back when I was trying to design that Mauser, failed, and just bought Zinge's

you call your mauser a failed attempt? feel bitchslapped over the ocean mister!

It was out of scale just a bit in the end
I've redeemed myself since those amateur days Vik

In anticipation of my Armorcast Pack Brahmin arriving, I built a Scavenger with cigarette and Nuka Cola-holding hand



Body, slung hunting rifle, and left arm are from Wargames Factory WW2 Late G.I. Sprue
Left arm is from Warlord WW2 Late British Commandos Sprue
Head is a West Wind Productions G.I. in jeep cap.
Nuka Cola bottle is from RSJake
Cigarette is the barrel from a grease gun from the same G.I. Sprue, glued between his fingers then cut off


Then this guy can be used as a Caravan guard or just a generic Wastelander.

hmmm... not too sure on the skinny one but you hit definitly full makrs on the last one... and here the autogun looks way better ... stock look more fitting too...beside... the pose with the stock over the arm is just awesome cool... like the british soldiers wield their LA85 and other guns...

at least the last part is true

You're getting grouchy in your old age Vik

There are no fat wastelanders..not enough food!

*coughstwigcoughs*

Believe it or not, the Scavenger is the same scale body-wise as the guard, The guard's shoulderpads are just too big, I've taken a lot of screenshots and have been studying the different clothing. He's supposed to be wearing Merc armor..

See? Shoulderpads too big.
Brother Vinni's only oversight so far

It's Zinge's design..well probably something LDD nagged him to create anyways

Nothing to do with me that time

They look awesome amongst your terrain, as always Dave!

Have you seen these from armorcast yet?

Just stumbled across this thread for the very first time. I have to say it's awesome. I'll be reading through the whole lot.

Yep Scarp, I have 2 0f them on the way!

Welcome LeadLegion! And thanks!

No, thank you. I've already gone back to the beginning and started taking notes!

You're gonna need a LOT of note paper! LOL

I've been working on my own Pst_Apoc wasteland scenery for 40K, Fall-out, Terminator, Inquisitor and Falling-Skies type games for a good year, but I've not made anywhere near as much progress (or achieved anything like your level of excellence).

Okay, I'll stop gushing now. I sound like the announcer at a Royal Wedding.

Show us pics man! Post em here! We have a bunch of post-apoc fans here who'd love to see them.

Yeh and as you'll notice while you go though it'll fit right in.

They look pretty good up near those vending machines.

Some of this stuff is fairly old, but as requested, here's a small selection of my recent Post-Apoc stuff. Some of these I painted for myself. Others I painted on commission. I don't have photographs of most of my Post Apolcalypse terrain unfortunately (and most of it is now down in Folkestone) but you can see some of it in this battle-report:

Miniatures:

28mm Vault Dwellers and robots using Copplestone Casting and EM4 miniatures sculpted by Mike Copplestone:









A Wastelander medic (Infinity Szalamandra pilot miniature)


Survivor kids from Hasslefree Miniatures:



These ones are either from Reaper's Chronopia range or are converted Reaper Legends:








Some Necromunda miniatures:





And some random's from various companies:


Scenery:

And some scenery. Mostly made from toys and the like:







Sorry about the length of this post by the way, my post-apoc enthusiasm got the better of me. My terrain making "skills" (such as they are ) are pretty poor, but you can see some of my later Post-Apoc stuff if you follow the links to the battlereport at the top of the page.

Oh wow man! Great figs! Great scenario, and it looks liek it was a great game too!

I love the bus, that's a nice piece! You've probably seen my initial work on a Corvega Atomic V8, I have plans for a Nuka Cola truck, a City-liner bus, and of course, the cool Atomic Pick-up truck from New Vegas is a must as well.

Don't worry man, posts are never too long here, you're stuff is great! You obviously have a good grasp of basic hobby techniques, really the only thing that will help you improve and hone those skills is just building more stuff. Learning by doing is the best thing you can do. We are also a helpful bunch, always full of new ideas and techniques, freely shared.

You just have to take this kind of stuff with it

Dave... that has to be a diorama... NAO!!!

I would, but one thinks resin toilets are a good idea except me!

lmfao...

... Yeah I stole something by accident on the aircraft carrier once.... that was the biggest fight I had ever gotten into... I ran out of ammo... and I had A LOT of ammo...

i cleaned rivet city just for the lulz... sometimes the mood takes me this way... there are always savegames later on to go back to...

and dave... cool strips... where the hell did you find them?

oh and at lead legion... cool bunch of minis and terrain... my top favorite among the many is the fridge... i hope someone is making notes here... a fridge is something i bet would look cool on a certain themed board

Yes but I hit Rivet City when you were supposed to get there... so early levels... which is why I ran out of ammo so much... than god for moira and her quests for giving me free shiz is all I can say...

hehe... tho i never really had any promblems with theft... i either kill the other guy afterwards anyway or i let it go by^^

A lot of product ideas (perhaps not good ideas, but ideas nonetheless) have been floating around my head a lot lately. Fridges and lockers (with separately cast doors) to name a few. I've been hitting the print screen a LOT as I walk around trying to think what would people want in their Fallout games to make them more immersive?






.>And then some things I just want for myself

hard to just kill the guy when it was the entirety of rivet cities security staff and floating bots...

would love to see how you'd make castable lockers and crates with removable lids

well... i tell you what... i will run a killing spree through rivet city soon... i am currently heading there anyway and i am inbetween LVL 7 and 8...so i am not overpowered^^

and dave... yeah... nice ideas... if possible... the illuminated advertisings would be a nice thing... could be done with thick wire...or right into the sculpting mass and produce a negative in the first place...just an indent so to say....

maybe you could do some of these cool looking doors? the ones that close rather slow...with the mechanics and so on?

or this of course :
