My Shiny New Resin Bases...

So I've been waiting awhile but I finally picked up some resin bases for my Imperial Fist army to really finish off what I have painted.

The ones I picked up are reasonably cheap I think for resin bases and are great quality in my opinion.

Check 'em out





This is just what I had out at the time the rest are in the wash.

What I ended up buying was 30 25mm bases, 5 40mm and 3 60mm bases. This all came to around £20 which I think is really good for what I got.

Link to ebay store I purchased them from

If you want specific links just ask.

My only real problem now is how do I paint them? Generally I think I'm going for the grey mixes for the  rubble/ground and dirt/rusty metals but I want to try and spice it up a little. Any suggestions? Also if you have any tutorials for rusty/dirty metal please point them out.

One last thing I have added a chatbox to the sidebar so get chattin! Maybe give me some tips for my bases on there?

Thanks

  2. Nice bases, they should finish the army off nicely, you could paint them like I did my city ruins...base with a random pattern of black and two different browns, give them a random wash (I used different washes for different building) of a brown/orange/green colour. Then drybrush them boltgun metal and drybrush methril silver. Finally go over some areas with a drybrush of black and scorch brown. You can check out some of my buildings here if your interested:
