The ooriginal detail and paint was underwhelming, but since “detail and rust it” is my approach to lots of things, i figured it would work well here too.

The T-60 armor had the arms, legs, and helmet completely repainted. This included changing the right limbs to the “Vault-Tec” paint job from the game. It then recieved detailing, black wash, and rust. The goal with this one was to make it look like it was cobbled together out of bits from multiple suits in various conditions.
