You already mention Basius which is wargames bakery

And there's happy seppuku but not sure if they do scifi as such

Thats the two that come to mind at least.

Thanks for the replies!

I liked the Basius stamps, but I could not discover where I could purchase them. It didn't seem like there was a store on their website.

Thanks for the tip on happy seppuku syrinx0, which ones do you have? I want to do something with a scifi feel.

I have their snow/mud, asphalt/sand flagstone and broken earth.  They have few SF patterns of plates and grids you might like.

James Wappel has lots of examples of basing using Happy Seppuku moulds on his blog (linky).

Despite his talents in making anything look good once painted, he does show you a warts-and-all construction walkthrough for nearly all of them, so they should be useful regardless of your skill with a hairy stick!  lol

Nice,

Just to add, I have some of the more fantasy aligned ones - paving, paving accents wood planking etc, to use with a lot of the fantasy stuff I have queued up.

Thinking another order in the new year, as to be honest although the Basius ones look fantastic, the pricing even with post USA/UK for the happyseppeku ones put them in 'affordable' thing rather than er, not.

And I do like them. They does the job quite nicely.

Not sure if the metal decking/plates and other bits they do are sci-fi are what you are looking for but they are all clearly shown with pressed examples on their website.

James Wappel inspired me to try the bases after a base & terrain session at GenCon last year.  Nice guy and great site.
