Basing
So after considering it for some time, this is what I am going to do with my basing.
- Attach the model to the base and blend in the moulded on base that the models come with. Without them I fear I am going to struggle with adhesion to the base. Pinning isn’t really an option as I use 1.5mm thick bases.
- I then add details on it that need to be painted, like resin tree stumps, weapons, skulls or whatever I feel is appropriate.
- I cover the base in PVA glue and cover it with a fine sand.
- Give the model and its base a coat of primer.
- I will paint the model as normal, but at the same time I paint the base and the rim with Vallejo Model Color Iraqui Sand (70.819).
- When this is sufficiently dry I will drybrush the base with Vallejo Model Color Pale Sand (70.837).
- After that I will add a coat of Citadel Shade Agrax Earthshade (99189953018) over the base.
- When the wash has dried I will add another drybrush of Vallejo Model Color Pale Sand (70.837).
- After that I will add a coat of Vallejo Model Wash Desert Dust (76.522).
- I will put a second coat of Vallejo Model Color Iraqui Sand (70.819) over the rim of the base.
- When this is dry I will add some PVA glue in various areas where I want to place a tuft, a rock or a log to the base. I will then cover a couple of more areas of the base and sprinkle some fine flock over it.
- Shake it off and when the glue is dry it is ready for the varnishes.
I think this will add a good Mediterranean feel to the base.
This is what the bases will look like.
