Kickstarter Ended now - Base stamp pads - updated 15/9/2013 (picture heavy)

EDIT: Kickstarter finished successfully 15/9/13

Just come across this KS for some great looking 15cm resin base stamper pads. I like the idea you can get a huge variety of bases from the one pad. http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/2023606288/bake-your-own-basius-base-pads-for-wargames-and-mi

Here  are a couple of the pads:


This is the level of detail you can get on the whole pad so a 25mm round base will have a small section of that. Worth a look at least.

They look interesting, but I am less than impressed with that they do not promise to ship to my country. Something about not being able to get the shipment insured? I didn't know Finland and Sweden were so backward countries, seriously?

Who even uses insured mail for something as low cost as this?

[muncehead]

May have something to do with the fragile nature of the resin (it's a wide piece) - no idea why not shipable to those countries though.

EDIT: there is an option in the FAQ how to get bases to any countries not listed so may be worth a look.

crazy expensive for $US based backers sadly. Probably due to shipping. Looks quite handy though.

Just to update they have hit funding and now have additional base stamp pads





The detail is amazing - need to expand my pledge.

That looks good. Now if they do a victorian cobblestone base, I'm in.

That looks good. Now if they do a victorian cobblestone base, I'm in.

My thoughts exactly ! I'm surprised they haven't already

[muncehead]

Dungeon treasure vaults, Steampunk outlands and victorian streets on the way apparently.

[Centaur_Seducer]

I'd love these. But 52 quid for two That calls for a lot, and a lot of basing.

[YPU]

I am a bit miffed by the dice one. Is anybody really going to spend money on that? 

[muncehead]

They've added two more options/stamps/thingies:

That one is a 'crafted world' one..

...and I really like the detail on this one - shell casings, discarded weaponry - very shiney!

[krieghund]

Some very nice kit there but a bit rich for me.

[muncehead]

It is a bit ouchy but I'm weighing up these vs cast bases.... which can still be very nice.

Some example bases from the KS



And some of the newer unlocked and still locked pads







Really like the treasure room and t
he rail junctiony-type one (horse shoes in the mud too).

[muncehead]

They have added some fantastic new bases (that need to be unlocked)












Not sure if all the pics are appearing right - and apologies for the pic-heavyness.....

[Sangennaru]

Hum. Some of them present a good amount of work, others seems a bit.... approximative. I mean, the idea of masters for bases is not bad, nor new, though. They could focus on something interesting (as cobblestones, why not) instead of gluing sand or electronical devices on a round base...


ah, and another think: writing "this is the positive impression that the Basing Pad produces from its Negative sculpted detailing" is ok, but not when you're obviously showing the master of the mold! ù.ù
