Step 1: Superglue the minis to a base, I use 2mm MDF.
Step 2: Use PVA glue to attach sand to the base. I use Citadel sand code 66-42 (But Citadel have recently changed the zize of the sand so a sligthly bigger sort...)
Step 3: Undercoat in black. I use Citadel Sparypaint.
Step 5: Brybrush with Vallejo Ochre Brown 127/856. Or get some cheap water based ochra/yellow paint.
Step 10: Tidy up the minis and the base edges with black.
And now it is just the painting of the minis left:)
And here you can find out how I base my 28mm minis...
Good Luck !

Good basing makes all the difference - it makes average figs look good, good figs look great, and great figs look superb.
ReplyDeleteI'm firmly in the former camp and need to do the best basing I can :-)

Very Nice,
ReplyDeleteI'm surprising , you finish the basing before the painting !
Thanks !
ReplyDeleteSins I work quite fast when I make my bases, dry bruching etc. I tend to ruin the painted minis if I paint them first... and it feels like the army are almost finished then the bases are done:)
Best regards Michael
