Hey Cam! I can see how you like 'em, Brother Vinni makes good sculpts and I did what I could to make changes , but I still have to hone some sculpting skills, I just hope I did not butcher the Big Guys too badly. I suspect Scratcher will be getting a lot of viewing. Gotta like Caiphus the Commissar, and yeah, creepy servitor is gonna always be creepy

Now to paint the Commissar up just right.

Scratchers will get the basic browns of a Death claw, but as he is special, I will likely add some two tone markings, and likely as a homage to the idea that they are raccoons, a ringed tail.


And now also, some Super Mutants/Ogryns!

Thanks Doc! I also gave him a chunk of truck tire for his right shoulder, I need to GS sculpt more often to get the easae of adding bits to models, and one day making my own sculpted mini!

With a bit of practice, putty sculpting for this kind of thing is pretty "easy" (for lack of a better word) until you get to the head and hands, I find those the most difficult.

Clay/colour shapers are a great help also.

Missed a few things here recently.

The tankette is great, really like that a lot. Completely missed all the development work on it, but don't think I had anything to contribute anyway Good job there indeed!

Latest supply drop from Vinni looks good, just received that robo-brain myself, along with the female 'inquisitor' and some female troops. Obviously my robo-brain will be getting split into a variety of different models, so it's always good to see one getting put together 'properly'

Nice to see you doing a bit more sculpting too, nice work there I'll echo the doc and recommend clay/colour shapers too

I used a round pour mold piece shaved down for the rob o-brain's "Neck" to add some height to it.

Now the little tank and the 2 huge troop carriers are ready for camo.

shapers it is as that is 2 votes now.

Good to see you again Unearthly!, funny you should mention Mr. Scratcher, I got him from Brother Vinni, in fact all of my Fallouty looking minis came from his studio. http://www.brother-vinni.com/shop.htm#!/Nuclear-sandlot/c/5965003/offset=0&sort=normal
It is listed as a Mountain Horror and comes with alternate head and tail bits.

Now Zinge is another sources for mini goodness for me, and speaking of Zinge, I have received today the latest Zinge-drop!

Zingelin mIlitary grade tires

\Now to show why I should have paid more attention to the tires I had, and the ones I was ordering! 8 x new Zingelins, and 4 x of the older non branded tires, I should have checked the sizes, so it looks like an 8 x 8 and a 4 x 4 will happen, so the 8x8 will be inspired by the old BTR-60 through 80 of the Cold War era, and the 4 x 4 more like a BRDM I may even make mid hull rollers for it as well.
