Fallout Fanfilms and other miscellanea

There's a pair of fanmade film efforts that are worth noting.

First, bishaway let us know about Fallout: Terra Australis, offering an announcement trailer with the outline but not showing much in the way of actual footage.

Further along is the Fallout: Houston project, which Duck and Cover has been following. You can see a ton of props and footage here, and they recently released a new trailer.

In other news, Life has an awesome series of photos taken shortly after a Nevada/Yucca Flat nuclear test on a model town (t/c Kotaku).

And finally, Jakesy lets us know Brother Vinni's is offering a "Nuclear Sandlot" 28mm miniature series, avoiding Fallout names but very clearly copied from Fallout: New Vegas. They do look pretty good, though.
 
I can't say much on Fallout: Terra Australis other than that they got some of their facts wrong. (where was North Korea's involvement in the war ever mentioned?) but regarding Fallout Houston, I hope the makers intended it to be a parody but I stopped taking them serious the moment I saw that ridiculously modified car.

It looks more like something of those PA racing games they released on the PC and consoles years ago than something from Fallout.
 
That ranger dude from Fallout: Houston reminds me so much of Hulk Hogan everytime I see him.
 
So far, I've not seen a single fanfilm that really oozed "Fallout" for me. All I saw was either gunporn, goreporn or taking the ridicolous humour of Fallout 2 to the extreme.
 
I laughed at those miniatures and their names. It's just so thinly veiled, it's almost embarassing. Although I do want a "Technical Wizard" miniature. Father Elijah's the best villain in Fallout: New Vegas and I want a little figure of him for decorative purposes.

So true. How long till Bethesda sues them?
 
I liked the Life photos, but I'm not fond of the Fan Films. The miniatures were pretty cool too.

They've had the Soldier in Power Armour and Wasteland Sniper around for a few years so could be a while yet, considering Games Workshop is way worse and it's ripping of them as well.

The "Ant" Soldier looks bitchin' though. Swap out the lame plasma rifle for something decent.
