Premium Pip-Boy Black HD (PipBoy)
I think the main reason a lot of Pip-Boy mods are floating around is just because, well… the vanilla one is freaking ugly XD, but I didn’t find any to suit my tastes, so I decided to make one of my own. I made this mainly for myself but I think it turned out pretty damn cool, (I don’t say this because I did it, but because I really think is the truth), so I decided to share it. Remember to endorse if you like it so that others can enjoy it as well! 🙂
INTRODUCTION:
It features a black matte finish simulating rubber painting, meaning the main parts won’t react to light in the same way as the steel finish ones. Plastic parts and the screen border also feature less reflective finish to make it look more realistic. I made this on purpose to add a logical explanation on why corrosion and oxide didn’t affect the Pip-Boy after 210 years.
I’ve also removed some of the dirtiness present on the screen and other few parts, but not entirely to maintain a certain level of realism.
Labels have been recolored too in order to adapt them to the red light I use in my Pip-Boy. (Future colors may be added if people request them! (and/or I feel like it XD). Update: Blue Edition and Green Edition added!
A new comfort foam has been added to the Pip-Boy’s interior featuring hexagonal surfaces to adapt to all kind of arms! Yeah, Vault-Tec pays me to say this 😉 Update: Black Interior version added!
And finally, I’ve added a tiny thunder to the power connector because it seemed boring when I looked at it in its plain white finish; with that, it looks much more… “powerful” 😀 I hope you like it!
