Author Topic: Another Aliens/Space Hulk Project, looking for suitable Square Resin bases?  (Read 5721 times)

The Fenris ones were the initial benchmark for what I wanted, I was just thinking 'if they were available in square'! More than happy to hold out for them Ian as its going to take me a while to put them together anyway. The choice of resin is that I feel if you are only doing a few 'elite' or special figs that modern future wars lends itself to so well, then its worth the effort to give them decent bases. That and the fact the Fenris ones are rather spiffing. Not sure what the term frothy means though?!

Okay, will bump them up the to-do list. Couple of major jobs to get out of the way this week, then it's onto new stuff duties: hopefully will have these ready within the next couple of weeks.

  • As my grandchildren see me...
My original board for FASA game uses plastic window screening for the grating. Cutting squares for a gazzilion bases would be no problem.

Now, if you try to do the board the same way I did, another story entirely...

After gluing the proper sized piece of screen to a bit of plywood, I made a small 'tool' from a bit of sprue with a notch cut down the center, and put a bead of modeling putty in the groove and ran it down to make the edges of each floor plate. TOOK FOREVER.

@CV Damn, those ARE pretty...

I think Epicast did something similar, but I don't recall that quality. Course, maybe it's just your painting... ;->=
