Utilizing an ergonomic, metallic skeleton design with a free-floating barrel, the. Anti-Material Rifle || Fallout New Vegas. But if anyone has questions, I'm more than willing to answer them.Fallout: New Vegas didn’t have text descriptions for items, so the story had to be told through the appearance of the weapon or armor itself. I know the write up portion of this build is a little lacking, mainly because I feel like I just used techniques that I watched from other people especially for the painting. Then black acrylic paint added to the crevices and cleaned off for more weathering. Any higher edge, spot wear normal wear would happen, the cheek rest and the front end of the receiver where you would grab it, and any place where someone might accidentally bump into something like the muzzle brake got more wear. I really do have to take more pictures of this thing all beat up looking now.īut the specifics for the weathering process, was the use of 1000 grit sandpaper with very light pressure to eat a little way through the paint to the silver layer to simulate wear and tear. Especially seeing how the cheek weld is in person a flat black color.
But in these pictures the rifle's colors looks really washed out. But this being Fallout nothing can be too nice or it will stick out like a sore thumb. All that needs to be done at this point is to weather the rifle, really was not that fun of a process especially after making it so nice looking. So here is the nearly finished product, Everything is in place glued and painted. Painted them black as a primer coat for the copper was they should have, but thought they looked cool as is and left them black. Cracked them out of the wood cleaned them up, then stuck them into the drill press to sand it into shape. To make the bullets I drilled some half inch holes into some pine then filled them with rondo. Also a scope rail was fabricated out of more PVC and a couple small screws to hold it on.Ī test fit of the scope and rings on the rail, the fitting was a little loose so a dab of hot glue under both rings were necissary.Īnd then in my usual style of not taking enough progress pictures, here is the nearly completed rifle repainted with a dark grey metallic paint I got an auto parts store.Īlso this bad boy needed some ammo so I made some bullets from bondo and loaded them into some 50bmg casings I had lying around. You see the runs of over spray in this picture which were wet sanded away. And then I said naw to the whole paint scheme and just hit it with a layer of aluminum paint.
