Fallout Props

Welcome back, dear reader.  If you're a prop maker and you've played the Fallout games, you must make replicas.  It's not up to us, that's just how it works. 

I made everything here except the lunchbox.  Its all pretty simple and straight forward.

Nuka Cola Bottles:  Brace yourselves.... they're coca cola bottles!  Just remove the original labels and print your own.  I then aged the glass with glue, paint and sandpaper.

Old World Money:  Just print them out and crumple them up.

Bottlecaps:  Paint the cap, apply the printed label, and add a thick coat of a sealant.

 

Mentats:  This was an Altoid case.  Due to the raised letters, i filled in the low spots with glue and paper.  I painted it and applied the printed label.  Finally, added grime and scratched the paint.

 

Baseball Grenade:  This is the only design I actually came up with myself in this post.  I took a dowel and slid 2 pieces of pvc over it and made it look solid with layers of mod podge.  The pin is an unfolded paperclip and a key ring.  Finally, I bore a hole in an old baseball and glued it inside.

This Ranger helmet did't quite come out like I wanted but I felt it worth mentioning.

The whole thing was cardboard except for the dome on top was a paper mache cast from a motorcycle helmet.  This was the first and only time I used resin for a top coat.


Before you go, please enjoy this old Fallout Disneyland comic I did.
