You don't actually need these for Strange Aeons as you can base the models however you like. I made 'em more for 40K...still thanx for posting that brett.

I was thinking they look more like 40K, but even so they would be ideal for many 20thC/SciFi uses.

Shame I can never get figures to stay on these types of bases. But then, I am a buffoon  :-[

That's because you have to pin them to the base.  Resin and CA glue, don't mix that well actually.

Some interesting bases there, but, on my screen at least, they all look like they're on flooded land.  Is that really a blue or is it a grey that's leaning hard towards blue?  ???  I would have thought a tan or brown more appropriate.

True enough...I do all my sci-fi stuff with that bluey-grey. They do look good in brown however, I know 'cause all my Space Marines are on 'em...might have to paint up an alternate...not this month thou...too busy.

Ah pinning and gluing! I'm pretty useless at drilling holes that match up well. I've had loads of "fun" trying to pin and glue larger metal figures and have ruined several smaller ones by drilling holes in the wrong places  >:(

I'm pretty safe with a paintbrush, but using anything remotely sharp or pointy is asking for trouble  lol

I find the solution is not less glue...but more glue. I hardly ever pin stuff as I find it to be a pain in my ass.

Oh really, now? I thought it depended on the dremel tool(that's what they call those things which happen to be conveniently unfindable, eh?).

Wonder how you could use UR-Small-13 and 14 correctly though. I've always found small bases like that to be a pain to find anything that went well with them. I like the 40 and 60mm bases. Will they be available separate, or in packs? Would be a good thing to get before I get around to doing my second post-apoc army.
