Request: Mininuke Themed Armours

[Ghostmachine]

So, I've finished up Nukaworld, got the Rocketsuit, and been thinking, what would be quite good would be a more raider-y version of the pin-up costume. Also, I was thinking about how Fallout 4 doesn't have an equivalent to the (I think) Raider Ordinance Armour from FO3 and the like. As such, a mini nuke themed armour set seemed a natural idea.

 

I was thinking a full armour set including Chest, Arms, Legs and Head, or a full body armour set (like cage armour et. al.) and a helmet.

 

For the Female Chest:

Light: A chest piece that looks like the chest area of the Gunner Harness with cups made from the tips of mini nukes (think the Beryllium Caps from Gorski cabin, but also with the yellow ring from the mini nuke) and chain straps.

Medium: The Light armour with a "chainmail" (could be leather or generally any fluid/ fabric-like material ) upper chest covering (think chainmail crop-top) anchored to a collar made from mini nuke Stabilizer Fin (another Gorski Cabin inspired piece) rings bent back around and welded together so that the central veins point outwards like a spiked collar.

Heavy: The Light armour with solid metal armour for the upper chest connecting to the same collar as the medium armour, and with a "chainmail" mid-drift. The solid metal is painted black with radiation warnings

For the Male Chest:

Light: A mini nuke Stabalizer Fin centered on the chest and bound by crossed chains, with a chain belt holding a beryllium cap inspired codpiece

Medium: Light armour with "chainmail" (again fabric-like whatever) around most of the upper torso again connected to a Stabilizer Fin inspired collar. The cod piece is larger, now looking like the tip of a mini nuke and half the Detonation Shell (again, Gorski cabin components for reference) connected to a more rigid belt, like a leather belt. The mid-drift can be exposed or not.

Heavy: Light armour with metal panels connecting to the collar and covering the upper torso, and similarly covered mid-drift to the heavy female armour. The belt has metal accents and the same cod-piece as the medium armour.


For arms:

Light: Shoulder pieces that look like halfed mini nukes held on with leather like straps

Medium: Light, but with fabric-wrapped arms and Beryllium Caps over the back of the hand (like the back of a pair of gloves)

Heavy: Medium, but with a fore-arm metal piece, and with a Stabilizer Fin welded to the shoulder so that it looks almost like someone welded a valve-wheel on.

For Legs:

Light: mini nuke Detonation Shell thigh-guards held on with leather straps.

Medium: Light leg armour with fabric leg wrapping and Beryllium Cap knee guards.

Heavy: Medium leg armour with metal shin guards.



For the Head:

Light: A Stabilizer Fin crown with fabric hanging down (think of a Keffiyeh with an Agal like Lawrence of Arabia wore)

Medium: Light head armour with a metal panel welded onto the Stabilizer Fin to protect the back and side of the head.

 

Heavy: Medium head armour with another Stabilizer Fin welded like a samurai helmet maedate to the first "crown" piece, and with a Beryllium Cap center mounted to the fin.



The armour would have progressively increasing Ballistic (metal armour) and Radiation (the mini nuke casing stops people holding them from getting irradiated after all) protection with poor energy protection. CBBE and Armoursmith compatibility would be ideal.

The other option is to incorporate these into full body suits like the caged armour, which would be good as a reward for beating a special Child of Atom or nuke-obsessed raider.
