King of the Park

I tried to paint this guy by closely following the example on the box:

 

Not really that close, but I think I did better than I would have without the reference.

Super Mutant Suicider Fumbles the Ball

Well, really I fumbled the ball as this guy's painter. The base looks okay, but the mutant itself is rather undistinguished, messy, and too dark.

Helmets Are for Chumps

This member of the Brotherhood of Steel has chosen to wear a suit of power armor without a helmet. Maybe he's not in combat or needs peripheral vision?

The Institute in a Radiation Suit


I haven't painted very many Fallout: Wasteland Warfare miniatures lately, focusing instead on finishing my collection of Pulp Figures. This guy is . . . okay, I guess. I like the look of the suit, but the base is pretty lackluster.

Explorer Plane

Jeff 3D-printed an explorer plane for me, and I painted it. A couple of Nuka-Cola stickers on the wings bring it into the Fallout universe--or not, depending on the scenario.

Bottle and Cappy

You never know what threats you might face in the ruins of post-apocalyptic Nuka World, including deranged robots Bottle and Cappy. From mascots to murderers!

Straight Outta Vault 33



Here's the protagonist of the Fallout TV show, Lucy MacLean. As with many Fallout miniatures, Lucy is covered in tiny, tiny details that I find a real bear to paint. The most I can say is that she looks okay from a distance.

The Ghoul

Here's the Fallout: Wasteland Warfare version of The Ghoul, played by Walton Goggins in the Fallout television show. For once, I'm completely happy with a face; it's just as gruesome and mottled as Goggins' makeup.

Five Heavy Duty Consoles

I've painted some heavy duty consoles, as they're named in Fallout: Wasteland Warfare. I imagine these are used to operate power plants and rocket launch facilities, etc. Lots and lots of fiddly details threatening eyestrain for these guys, but they turned out sharp and clean.

Ancient Sentrybot

Here's a sentry bot that's been hanging round for hundreds of years, wandering without purpose. As a result, it's covered in rust and mud and fuel stains. I tried to make the left machine gun barrel look like it was glowing from just having been fired, but alas, the effect isn't terribly convincing. Next time...

A Pair of Radscorpions


I get a little freaked out whenever a radscorpion starts chasing me in one of the Fallout games. It makes a horrid chittering noise as it charges, and it skitters in a beeline toward you so fast that before you know it, it's driving its stinger into you, delivering an unhealthy does of lethal poison. Plus, they're just plain ugly. Yuk! 

Painting these was pretty simple; I just primed them in black and drybrushed Dark Reaper over the bodies to create highlights. I spent more time on the bases.

Mirelurk Hunters

Here's a jolly pair of loathsome, clickety-clackety mirelurk hunters. I'm quite pleased with the look of the eyes.
