teblin Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 So I have purple marines, urban (grey) bases, and I can't decide which colour (if any) to paint the base rims. Any suggestions?

Lorenzen Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 Black looks best for urban bases etc imho, if you check out my minotaur thread theres a couple of examples in there.

-Volsung- Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 Anyone considered doing stylized bases? Like giving the circular rim a greco pattern or wrap a decal radiation strip around it? Just a thought. As for your base, if your urban rocks are grey, then go for black. it'll contrast Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/279249-painting-base-rims/#findComment-3442230 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Butcher Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 Vallejo track primer - Trust me it's perfect, kind of a grey Green Brown thing - blends with any table surface (within reason :-p) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/279249-painting-base-rims/#findComment-3442259 Share on other sites More sharing options...
skawolf Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 I use a 50/50 black+charcoal grey mix on all of my base rims. It looks good. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/279249-painting-base-rims/#findComment-3443001 Share on other sites More sharing options...
