Gotta admire the detail... he really put together a nice piece. I guess his wife is also a painter so she helped colour and weather it: http://blog.makezine.com/archive/2010/08/even_better_fallout_3_replica_weapo.html
Pretty nice job, except for the fact that they're ugly as sin. Make a replica of a P94 and we'll talk.
Those replicas are amazing. I do like the Fo3 laser rifle model (plasma rifle not so much). He does an awesome job on them regardless.
I went through the Flickr where he showed some of the build process... this took him months to complete. He even did some of his own model casting. Crazy talent.
He's not bad, of course, but I personally do not like the energy weapons' design too much in Fallout 3. Not to mention some taste issues with some of the.. bigger 'guns'...
Obviously. The gun models from FO3 were all either hilariously ugly or hilariously dumb. Sometimes both!
If you don't like the guns, that's fine. But this man's work is amazing regardless of how you feel about Fallout 3 weapons looking "hilariously ugly". Let's try to find something positive in this post rather than immediately gunning for the "lolfallout3sucks!!1111eleven" response. It wouldn't matter what weapon he was designing, his craftmanship is to be admired.
very cool... I want to make one, but have no time right now to start another project... maybe later I'll do something like that.
Yeah, some people aren't a huge fan of the energy weapons. He also did an AER9 Laser Rifle if anyone's interested: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ryanpalser/sets/72157623534974015/
