☢️ THE GHOUL – PART 2 | Bringing the Wasteland to Life

Part 2 of our Fallout Ghoul build is all about texture, leather and weathering.

This stage focused heavily on the pants and jacket building up the leather tones, adding wear, grime and weathering, and bringing out all those little surface details that make the clothing look old, beaten and like it’s actually survived the wasteland.

There’s still plenty more detailing to come, but he’s definitely starting to look a lot less like a 3D print and a lot more like The Ghoul. 🤠☢️

Stay tuned for Part 3!

☢️ The Ghoul is starting to come to life!

Our Fallout-inspired Ghoul statue is currently making his way through the finishing process sanding, priming and laying down those first base coats before we get into the real fun with all the weathering and detail work.

There’s still plenty of work ahead, but he’s already looking like he’s walked straight out of the wasteland. 💀

Stay tuned for the finished result!

🐉 THE TRASH GOBBLER RISES AGAIN! 🗑️⚔️

Our original Trash Gobbler found his new home during the Medieval Festival but fear not, adventurers!

His successor is already rising from the depths of the Rising Sun FPV workshop one layer at a time on our Modix BIG-60. 🖨️

Now we need your help…

🎨 What colours should we paint the new Trash Gobbler?

🌅 Rising Sun colours – something bold and completely different
🌿 Earthy greens & browns – keep the classic Trash Gobbler look
👹 Something else entirely? – drop your colour scheme in the comments!

Help us decide what this beast should look like when he finally emerges! 👇

There’s just something ridiculously satisfying about peeling off masking tape and getting that CLEAN line. 👌

Even better when the masking tape actually decides to do its job for once. 😂

Peel. Reveal. Perfection.
