Bases

Recommended Posts

I was working on some rocky bases using smashed plaster castings from a Woodland Scenics rock mold, but I've recently been working on using a "shattered pavement" style that I saw on a Dark Eldar board. Sculpey is a lot less threatening to my sinuses than casting plaster.

I'm using Army Painter's Battlefields Sci Fi starter pack for my bases. Unfortunately it's out of print, but it is a nice mixture of grey gravel, brown flock, and dark green static grass. Here's an example:

Urban style. Modelling sand/rocks, painted grey, then drybrushed with 2 lighter shades of grey. All 5 of my armies have/will have different bases (Tau have grass/wasteland, Bretonnia have standard fantasy field type terrain, Tomb Kings have desert, and the Dark Eldar I'm starting are going to be snow-based). I find that the grey helps to offset the black/red of my angels.

 

@Ushtarador, those look pretty sweet dude (models as well as bases)... any chance of some close-ups?

I am making mine on lava bases to add something of a demon world like signus prime (I like to think o' me angels as signus prime veterans).

I wasn't happy with what was available for basing so i started casting my own out of resin 3 months ago and right now almost everyone here has ordered bases from me :lol:

photos will be available shortly
