Fallout

Seeing as the current topic seems to be fancy dress and costumes I'll throw this in to the mix. My good buddy Aled wanted to go to a post-apocalypse themed party as the Vault Dweller from the third game in the Fallout series. It's a nice simple costume, primarily because you design your own character's face and build so all you really need is to get the outfit right. The starting costume is basically a jumpsuit and a wrist-mounted computer, here's my attempt for Aled:

The PipBoy 3000 - built out of a Pringles tube card and an assortment of bits and bobs.

 Painstakingly masked and painted - yellow over blue needed lots of coats!
 
 Aled modelling the full ensemble.

Of course Aled ended up wearing a long coat - ideal for the character, less so for the hours I put into the "101" on the back of the jumpsuit!
