I've been hitting the wacky mutant humanoid/animal thing pretty hard lately so I've decided to back it up a bit and try to go a bit more 'classic' wasteland look for the next week or two.
First up Reaper does this mutant which is a spot-on match for the super-mutants from Fallout 3.
Way back when I painted my old school mutants I knew I wanted them to eventually match the skin from those Fallout 3 super-mutants so this guy should blend in pretty well with my existing mutants. I followed Games Workshop's guide fro painting Escape From Goblintown goblins for my mutant skin-tone with the only significant change being that I also applied a red-wash around the eyes to make them look a bit more unhealthy.
I'm really happy with how this figure turned out, my only regret is that he doesn't come with extra arms so I could make more than one. I bought a second one but the challenge in converting it will be finding limbs with matching proportions.
I think I might break from mutants for awhile and do some raiders so keep an eye out for that.
