Fallout Factions: The Disciples, part two

Continuing to work on my Disciples warband for Fallout: Factions! I’m adding another base mook and a leader model this time around.

First up is a basic raider with a gun, grenades, and knife. I didn’t mess around too much with it and just did base colors with an oil wash on it.

The kneeling figure is Dixie, one of the lieutenants of the Disciples group. She’s particularly blood-thirsty, and has a ton of hacked up corpses just hanging around her barracks. Sadly, the resin on the base got hacked pretty good when I was trying to trim the pour gate, but I don’t think it ruins the figure.

I’ll be using Dixie in Fallout: Factions as a random leader or fill-in trooper, depending on the situation. Here’s the group so far!

Fallout Factions: The Disciples (part one)

I wish I had been a Fallout fan earlier. My oldest kid was way into it, and I remember listening as she played the hell out of Fallout 3, New Vegas, and Fallout 4. I’m a huge Skyrim fan, so you would think I would have played sooner. Really, it took the new series to get me to look at it again, and now I really can’t look back.

I love the Atom-Punk vibe of the whole thing. Alternate histories are a hell of a thing, too, and the games and show have strung together a pretty fascinating look at a future that looks a lot like our past had a baby with an old Flash Gordon serial.

I had the Welcome to Nuka-World starter for Fallout Factions, and sold it, thinking I wouldn’t get back to it anytime soon. I still had the Disciples set, and decided I would paint them up before making up my mind on more minis from the franchise.

I think I want more minis from the franchise. Modiphius has made some pretty cool minis, and the hard plastic kit for the Disciples is pretty keen. I was thrown at first because they’re a true-scale 32mm, so the features, hands, and feet are smaller than I’ve grown used to. But they’re fun to paint, take an oil wash well, and look pretty good once all is said and done.

I ordered the character command minis for this group, I should have one of them done for the next update!
