I was wondering if anyone knew of a basing scheme that would look equally (or at least a little) good for desert, temperate and urban terrain. I want to use different camo patterns for some sci-fi miniatures I've acquired to differentiate between units, but it would be nice to keep the bases the same for a unified look to the army.
At the moment the closest thing I can think of is a brown undercoat with a mix of grey and beige drybrushing, with some static grass to break up the lines a little. The rim of the base would either be dark brown or black (I find the GW approach to basing helps make models look a little "righter" on boards their bases don't match).
If you only know of a basing scheme that's good for two, then I would prefer temperate/desert. My urban board is a long way off.
Thanks all,
M
