#basing — Public Fediverse posts

Not quite what I had imagined (I probably should have stuck with the tried-and-tested PVA instead of switching to gloss varnish), but good enough to continue with.

Gloss varnish, then thiiiicc Mordant Earth.

Fun fact: what you see on those rocks is not a mistake but my first attempt at #OSL. Ever.

Even cooler in the dark

Well... good enough I'd say.
And I found one of my UV LEDs 😎🎇

Primed and first paint layers (lava wet in wet)

So it begins... again

The test bases are done and a little more of the base colors on the #mummifiedUndead.
I'll call it a day with that.

Another round of drybrushing and I'm almost satisfied.
I especially like the lava rocks while I think the creep needs a glossy/ "wet" finish". I'll do that with a gloss varnish.

I have given the bases a wash with SC82 "Intense Violet".

While that is drying, it's time for more layers on my mummies' bones (SC25 Birch) and rags (SC09 Whites Sands).

I love my #Scalecolor paints, but getting decent coverage with light colors is a darned pita (which also makes them great for blending and glazing, of course...).

I'm also doing some little experiments for potential future #basing on off-brand 25mm bases I had lying around (I won't build an army, but various different kinds of small teams).

First an organic look with the "mix superglue in PVA" method (middle: liquid superglue, right: gel superglue).

The left one will become another try with crackling.

Got a delivery of delicious wood-smoked modelling salami

#turnip28 #miniatures #basing

A simple, quick base for #DoomguyUrbie: a piece of gravel, Woodland Scenics' ballast, three shades (1) of Abteilung 502 #OilPaints and now it's waiting until tomorrow evening for the oils to dry. I remain confident in tolerably Mars-y results.

I thought of adding a couple of wash-thin Grass Green drops for Baron of Hell blood but we'll see 🤔

(1) Dark Brick Red base, some Oxide Patina highlights and a touch of Industrial Earth for shadows.

#Basing techniques . All from raw materials #sawdust from a guy working on the street next to a #miniatures shop, #sand white and black from paths during some of my walks , pines spikes and dry leaves from the forest in a hot week during the summer .
5 shades of green obtained by filtering the sawdust (providing additional artefacts like stones from the street it was gathered on) mixed with different levels of yellow and blue inks. #J2S #boardgames #soclage
