Thanks :), i'll need to make some more pictures as the forces have grewn (Artillery, Recon and some engineer bases).

They all made with a mix of sand, PVA glue and plaster (about 50/25/25 but it can vary depending on the materials you got) mixed together with tub water and than applyed on to the bases. Than i added some stones and made some furrows with a tooth pic. After that i let it dry for a day than washed every base with a mix of water and PVA to seal it and to make sure the stones would stay in place. At this point the base just needs to be painted and is ready to recieve the minis.

For Infanterie bases i set them into the Base bevore the mix dryed so i had to paint them on the base. haveing made about 30 Infanterie Bases this worked best for me. On some of the "scenic" Command Bases i placed the modells early as well but than removed them for the drying prozess. So when the base was the you could just dropp that model into the place it occupied bevore.

Really smashing work both on the minis and the terrain - impressive!

The minis and terrain are absolutely top.  I rarely bother clicking on 6mm threads...but I'm glad I did!  Incredible stuff!
