Took a week to make but I really wanted to make the laser rifle from fallout 3 ! I got the fil3s from thingiverse printed in about 20 parts and it's massive lol

The chest and pauldrons are finished, unfortunately I couldnt find a solution towards making the ocular, along with the piping that makes up the helmet, as i dont have as much time to put stuff like that, along with shopping. High school really doesnt like it when you have personal plans😭😭😭

The helmet went through a plan, but the rest is kind of me bullshitting it as I dont have all the resources to actually make a big looking power armor.

Now, for the paint job.. is what i wonder. Ill let you guys decide what type of color I should make it. Maybe something not over complicated as I dont have all that time to create a nuka cola power armor, as much as that would be absolutely fucking sick!

I was going through my Twitter account, which I haven't been on in ages, and I forgot all the cringe I posted when I was a teenager thinking I was so cool and clever, but I stumbled upon this and got the biggest nostalgia hit; man, I miss being a kid.

I feel like Gunners were suppose to be an evil militarized faction that you can be part of, I mean they had ranks, military discipline, main base and enough firepower that they almost conquered the Boston and they were the main reason why Minute men were wiped out.

It's like they had vision for the Gunners but they replaced them with Brotherhood and the Nuka-world raiders

Steel + Brahmin troughs in every settlement = raining lead. I thought it would be more complicated. Though settlers now hang out in my bullet factory, rather than the tiki bar & restaurant.

I know how this might sound, but I'm not necessarily talking about modern tacticool armor. I'm talking about more on the lines of something like Retro Tactical. For example, The 1950s Future Soldier concept, it seems like it would be the Perfect blend of Tactical and Retro. And Fallout already has Tactical Armors, such as the Fallout 76 Brotherhood Special Ops Armor. Tactical Armors can Exist in fallout but they just have to be done right and in a way that makes sense. Like, in my head cannon, Bulletproof Vests and Plate Carriers are used heavily in the post war America because of how Mass producible they are amongst the Post War Powers.

I’m diving deeper into the history of the franchise and would love to hear from fans who played the classic games (Fallout 1 & 2). I've only played from 3 to current.

​How different are the lore, worldbuilding, and overall tone under Bethesda compared to the original Interplay/Black Isle era?

Appreciate any insights!

​

Today I want to show you progress on this project. About 80% of the map is ready!

After the build is done, I will upload it!

Maybe this is an unpopular opinion, but I genuinely believe every Fallout game has something worth appreciating, even the most criticized ones.

From the classic isometric games like Fallout 1 and 2, to Fallout 3 and New Vegas, to the more divisive Fallout 4 and Fallout 76, and even the criticized Brotherhood of Steel, to the long forgotten Tatics, I think every entry has something that makes it worthwhile in its own way your money and your time, if you are really willing to do it with an open mind.

Obviously, I'm not blind to the fact they're all equally good or that criticism isn't justified. Every game has flaws, questionable design decisions, missed opportunities, and things that could have been done better. I even agree with quite a few of the criticisms people make about certain entries, after all this opinion comes from a Fallout fan who loves to death Fallout 4, Fallout new vegas and Fallout 2 for its own reasons (and genuinely i just cant decide my favorite between the 3, because all of them are my top one for its own reasons).

But sometimes, I feel like SOME PEOPLE (NOT EVERYONE, I HAVE TO MAKE THIS VERY CLEAR BECAUSE I WAS ALREADY CRITICIZED FOR THIS BEFORE) inside Fallout community can be a little too harsh on some of these games.

Fallout 4 for example, gets criticized for its dialogue system, simplified RPG mechanics, and changes to the formula, but it also offers fantastic exploration, environmental storytelling, gunplay, settlement building, and an incredible amount of replayability, and i need to say, even in its own vanilla game, specially in its survival mode (i have about 2000 hours on it, and half of these hours are un-modded)

Fallout 76 had a pretty rough launch and plenty of legitimate problems, but the updates over the years have made it a much more enjoyable experience, and there's something special about exploring the wasteland with other people, and even if i coudn't play that much after all these years (i only have them on ps4, and honestly i just cant habdlenthe fact that i have to pay to play online) the limited amount of hours i've had with this game, i truly had some fun investing my time on it

Even the older games have their own techinal limitations, but their atmosphere, writing, worldbuilding, and role-playing possibilities are still fantastic, like my favorite older games, Fallout 2 and Fallout new vegas: both have its own technical limitations? Sure. Controls can be a little janky at times? Of course, but still its storytelling, environment, mecanics and such a lot of other things make them one of best games of my ENTIRE LIFE

And honestly, one of the things I love most about Fallout is the modding community. Whether it's restoring cut content, improving mechanics, adding quests, changing the gameplay, or simply making the game more comfortable to play, mods can help you tailor the experience to your preferences. Community-made content has also given games like Fallout 4 even more reasons to revisit them in one of the things i agree in some parts with the community, that is the lore inside the game (FEVer Dreams managed to make Fallout 4 a game with better story, with more lore depth).

And that's before even mentioning the TV series, which has its own charm and has introduced the franchise to a whole new audience, and yes, in my opinion, season 2 can not have the same charm such as season 1, but i still think it have a fun and interesting story to tell in this universe.

Personally, I enjoy pretty much every era of Fallout. I can appreciate the old-school isometric RPGs, spend hundreds of hours in Fallout 3 or New Vegas, and then jump into Fallout 4 or 76 without feeling like I'm betraying what the franchise used to be.

I don't think every Fallout game is a masterpiece. I just think there's a difference between a flawed game and a genuinely bad one.

Sometimes, I wonder if certain entries would be judged a little more fairly if people focused on what they actually bring to the franchise instead of only comparing them to their favorite Fallout, and again, its not everyone on the community, it is about some people that i think its insuferable in some kind of way, im not blind to what people complain about all games, i see the good and bad points of all Fallout media, and honestly, liking all of them by specific reasons don't make me someone with low or no standards.

I'm genuinely interested in hearing different opinions. You don't have to agree with me, because in the end, opinions are all subjective, but personally, im 100% certain that i'll die on this hill.

All of these are made by me, and will be handed out in very limited quantities while I’m visiting Mojave Mayhem 2026! Here’s an overview of each book:

The Deseret Cookbook: a cozy magazine of delicious(?) home-cooked recipes compiled by the head Mormon chef of a budding Utah settlement

How To Stop Being Dog-Ass at Caravan: self explanatory. A Caravan for dummies style book that holds the hand of the reader through the intricacies of the card game no one knows how to play

The Followers Field Manual for Disease: A meticulous medical document giving overviews of the symptoms, treatment, and prognosis of all of the diseases from Fallout 76 and more!!

The Legion Reclamation Campaign: A short military scouting report that ties into the lore of the Fallout TV show, outlining how Legate Lanius’ forces plan to re-take territory of a legion fort that defected and pledged allegiance to the Lacerta Legate (Macaulay Culkin’s character).

I’ve put well over a hundred hours into each of these books, so I’m very excited to show them to the world. They are all meticulously researched to be lore friendly, entertaining, and as factual as possible! I’ll be handing these out for caps/bartering (NO PREWAR MONEY ACCEPTED) at Junc Alley. So if you see a big and tall girl in a followers of the apocalypse coat, that’s probably me!!

Eventually I'd like to add a pip-boy and 3d print a proper Chinese assault rifle to look more like my in game character.

I love the survival skill in fnv! Used the need to practice rendering as an excuse to draw more fallout fanart.

I actually really like Dead Money. The weapons and armor you get are pretty dang neat (in a more grounded feeling, non-op kind of way), it has my favorite cast of characters in all of the DLCs, and the story is one I consider one of the best in the game.

Really, it's a toss up on which one takes the number 1 spot for best DLC, Dead Money or Lonesome Road.

[Stayed up until 3:30 am making this. It's not the drawing itself (though, deciding on the poses and the embarrassing amount of reworks I had to do didn't help), but the spacing, color balance and all the technical stuff I'm not a huge fan of. Fortunately, unlike other projects I took too long on, I kinda like how this one turned out.]

Happy Birthday!

I forgot to post on Fallout Day, but, my baby brahmin just came in, so everything works out in the end.

This is a sample of my custom project Fallout AG, following Amelia, a 10 year old merchant in the 2286 Whiskysun (Wisconsin) wasteland, who discovers a sinister plot to control the Midwest Commonwealth. Can this American wasteland girl save the day or will this be another example of war never changing?

3D prints were done at 1/3rd scale and I'll be happy to share the links if requested. The brahmin was a custom commissioned item using two American girl branded calves. The outfit was designed by me and commissioned. More to come as I sand down and paint my prints.

So i like a challenge, I don’t like it when the game is too easy, so I’m playing on hard mode rn, and I feel like I can’t save up caps to save my LIFE

I have Raider Badlands armor as a backup for if the condition on my combat armor gets too bad while I’m traveling, but I still have to

1. Buy Combat armor from Moria for the road
   
2. Pay her to repair it so I can repair it better for the road
   
3. Buy ammo
   
4. Buy combat shotguns to repair my Terrible Shotgun for the road, as well as other guns I use that I can’t remember the names of
   
5. Pay to have THOSE repaired so I don’t have to resort to using Hunting Rifles

It all adds up, and even tho I grab anything of worth and sell it, and she’s still usually left broke, I can’t save up enough to decorate my house :/

I grab scrap metal to give them to the guy who repairs the water purifier whenever possible, I buy and grab sugar bombs for the ghoul dude for his ultra jet, collect Nuka Cola Quantum for the gal who’s obsessed with it, I feel like I’m doing everything I can, and it’s just not enough

I will lower the difficulty if I have to… but that’s BORING, and I really don’t want to

I don’t have the one building where the Brotherhood of Steel is yet to give them Pre-War books

I have Seargent RL-3 as my follower, so I don’t have to give him Stimpacks, he heals after each fight if he doesn’t get destroyed. So saving money on Stimpacks that way.

I'm attempting to make as accurate a replica of an old military field radio as possible and am struggling to figure out a way to do so. Ideally, it should be light enough to not break my back carrying the thing, have two straps to be used as a backpack, a bit oversized so that it's visible from the front, and both openable in both of the places with latches so I can put a speaker in it. Also I was tinkering with adding a telephone to hang on one side of it, but it's less of a priority. I looked into using ammo cans, but none had the correct design on the side. Thinking I could maybe use the face of a ham radio for the top bit? Any advice would be appreciated, and if anyone has access to tools that make recreating this easier I'd be willing to pay!

Judging by the attitudes of Pre-War America's government, I doubt they were treated well

Got some Fallout Miniatures on sale and had to paint it up inspired by my homeland and the wonderful Fallout London mod.
