"Little" Super Mutants for Fallout - Meet the Goblin Gang!

 

Meet the "Goblin Crew." These lads will be one of the gangs that my Fallout d20 roleplaying group will encounter in the future. In game, their background will be one where the FEV virus was modified to create a subservient worker class for the Enclave. A project the Enclave called the G.O.B.L.N. experiment.

The group's leader, 'Top Hat' orchestrated a daring mass escape of the G.O.B.L.N. experimental subjects. They took off through to old sewer network of pipes and escaped into the Commonwealth Wasteland, close to the Glowing Sea, and have been in hiding ever since.

Not necessarily as dangerous as their Super Mutant cousins, who would enslave them if they found them, they are naturally extremely cautious of anyone finding out that they exist and will shoot at anyone who approaches their hideout in order to scare them away.

Center in the photo above is Top Hat, their leader. To his right is Little John, the psychic and mystic of the group. What he lacks in stature, he more than makes up for with his mental abilities such as telepathy and telekinesis. To Top Hat's left is Red Eye, the groups ever vigilant scout and sniper.

Next we have on the left, Brambles with his pistol and whip made from mutated thorn vines. Uncle is in the middle. Finally, we have Droopy on the right.

Next, also from left to right, we have Wagstaff (Wagsy for short), Eeps in the middle, and Tripod whose right arm he uses more as a third leg given his malformed legs.

Finally, we have, again from left to right, Bo (and abbreviation of "Boom", a catchphrase he uses whenever he blows something to pieces), Cynders in the middle (who naturally likes to torch everything in sight), and Splats (short for Splatter) on the right. Splatter got his name from using his shotgun a little too well. He must have gained the "Bloody Mess" perk somehow during their escape from the secret Enclave lab.

And that's the team. So welcome to the Goblin Crew.

The Super Mutants arrive!

The first batch of my Super Mutants for Fallout Wasteland Warfare, Fallout Factions, my home grown d20 Fallout rpg game, This is Not a Test (TNT) etc, etc, are finally ready. I plan to use these lads to bother my roleplaying group in the near future. So should be fun.

Now to paint those Suicider Super Mutants. One or three of those will make life fun for the group.

Junk Fences update and a Junk Tower for Fallout

 

So, remember those Junk Fences I posted about previously (see here). I've added some extra little features such as some Army Painter Razor Wire and some fine size gardening mesh as well as those excellent cardboard coffee cup holders from my local bakery that I get each time I buy coffee (the one that looks like corrugated iron).

I used PVA glue for the mesh and corrugated iron. I hot glued the razor wire in place sandwiching it between some match sticks that I cut in half. All in all, it does the job nicely and wasn't too expensive. The Army Painter Razor Wire being the most expensive single item in the whole build. I spray painted it in a thin coat of brown which still lets the wood grain come through.

The gates are half sized bits of cut tongue depressor sticks with fine sized gardening mesh added. I thought about adding a few more items to the gate but haven't decided on anything as yet. I may add some tires or something else. But for now, this will do.

The Junk Towner is comprised of bits of balsawood from a craft pack I got from Bunnings. That pack came with a whole assortment of shapes, sizes and thickness of balsawood. It was what I used to make the main house of the Wasteland Farm you can see here.

The height is set so that it stands at roughly three stories for 28mm scale and is open on one side. Ladders can be placed within for movement and there is a mid-story where I can place miniatures traversing the tower. The top of the tower permits a 28mm miniature to stand half exposed looking over the top of the tower.

And that's another project done!
