Hi peeps, really love the game fallout 3 and so decided to try and make some of the characters from it. Simple as that
I started a project log for this about 2 years ago, but after 2 posts I had nothing left due to working slowly. So now since then I've got a lot more done, so I'll slowly reveal bits of the project until I get up to the present day. And I might even continue in real time! But probably not because the breaks between updates will get very long


So the first few models I made up were, Brotherhood of Steel Paladins made from space marines with hacked up old Dark Eldar torsos as shoulder pads:










There you go hope you like

I definitely think you have the right idea, but the helmets really really need to change. They're too Iconic for Space Marines to represent anything else. They may start a good base for modification, but if you have some Chaos SM heads that might be a better route to take in your modifications.

The shoulderpads look good, you might want to try taking the handles off of a Tank sprue or an ammo box and attaching them to the shoulderpads, since the Brotherhood have those weird handles on their shoulders.

Yeah, looking nice but just needs a helmet to go with it. They make good "retro" marines at the moment though.

Yeah I know they look a lot like space marines, I was more going for an inspired-by idea than, strictly correct. I guess I should just call it post apocalyptic 40k

And here's the other 3 Brotherhood I made. There is a reason one is holding an hourglass, don't know what that is yet but I'm sure there is a reason.

Ok with the other 4 space marine models, I made 3 outcast brotherhood, Casdin with ripper, Morgan with laser pistol and Rockfowl (not pictured) with a minigun.

The fourth i converted into Ashur. King of the Pit.














Hope you enjoy, will post up pics of them painted soon

I'm a huge fan of the game...you can kinda see its inspiration in some of my mutants...and I really like what you've done here mate, great attention to detail! I'd add a little bit more rust/dirt too them m'self, its pretty dirty out there in the DC Wastes

Thanks for your comments guy means alot

@ghostflame good idea, I didn't think of putting dirt on these guys when i painted them, I might leave rust off brotherhood though just because all of my other minis will be so dirty, these guys will be a little bit more advanced and act as a contrast.

Here are some shots of the outcast brotherhood and Ashur, much more pleased with these guys but realised they dont have much dirt on them either. Will upload more once everybodty is nice and dirty.






Hope you guys like

Aw I really like the BOS Outcasts mate, especially the minigunner and you've gotten the tribal power armour looking great on Ashur, the barmin skull is spot on! Well done.

Have you thought about making some Enclave for them to fight? The chaos space marine head idea people have mentioned here would fit them great after a bit of reworking.

Those guys look great, and i think that the SM helmet is similiar enough to the power armour from fallout that it doesnt really make a difference in my mind.

Thanks dajobe thought so myself

Cheers ghostflame, I have thought of making enclave but havn't found anything I could make them out of yet, I thought chaos marines too, with dark elf heads modified, but I couldnt see a way to make it work, so until i find a way, these guys will be fighting raiders, ghouls and talon company, which are much easier and fun to make. But yeah if there's any ideas you have feel free to let me know

Anyway here's the brotherhood with some dust:
Didn't really put much on cause I was scared to ruin them I think for better weathered effects I should have planned them from start. But I'm gonna leave these boys as is.


Here are some more pics of the outcasts, named and dusted




And ashur named




Next up I'll put up some raiders I put together
Cheers

Here's how far i got with a enclave armour, I would also add the weird ear shapes to side of helmet and shave down the top.

Thats pretty cool, I like the use of the IG Command gas mask there. I'm not sure I can tell if this model works yet or not, think I'd have to see the whole thing built first to judge but good start for sure.

Well I'm not really in with any gaming community but if I was going to play with some non warhammer friends I would use them in some necromunda campaign, just little skirmishes, I'm not making an army, just little gangs i guess.
So I would sorta tweak the stats to my liking and in an effort to make the sides fair.

But at the moment just making them for the fun of it

Hey guys these are the first raiders I did, not really pleased bout the paint jobs, but they were really fun to make, getting the severed hand on the belt, sanding down a SM shoulderpad to give the welders mask, hope you guys like:










Cheers guys thanks for looking

They look cool mate.

The paint job looks good too from here but if you're unhappy maybe try adding some faded tattoos, more blood 'n' gore or flick some brightly coloured paint on them in random places like they've been out spray painting their turf?

Looks really cool. I think Fallout 3 is one of the best games ever, and a Fallout themed army would be awesome! Unfortunately I agree with others here about the helmets, I guess it's too late to change. But all your other work looks so good, it doesn't look like it would have been beyond your skill to mod the space marine out of those helms. Looking good no matter.

Hmmmm....maybe it'd be goodl to take a Mark 7 helmet with the "camera" ove rone of the "ears", cut it in half down the middle (into left and right halves), and glue the half with the "camera" to half of a Mark 6 ("Beaky") helmet to try and emulate the helmet for the Brotherhood?

This is pretty neat, but its fallout 3 basically sucked. New vegas wasn' t bad, but it couldn't hold a candle to the originals.

Don't know if your into RPG's, but making these is decent incentive to start playing the fallout rpg (fan game based of the original good fallouts)
