Recessed bases made by Warlord GamesRecessed bases made by Warlord Games

I prefer round bases and I especially like recessed bases. The recess allows me to hide the molded on bases that are part of the minis. I’ll hide that using base render.

This particular basing material is fairly easy to apply. I use a paint knife I picked up at Hobby Lobby in the section where artist oils are sold.

While the render is still wet, it’s easy to clean up using water and paper towels. Once dry excess material is a little trickier to deal with. I use a dentists pick that I got from Micro Mark.

Heavily used this dental tool works great for removing material in hard to reach places. Heavily used this dental tool works great for removing material in hard to reach places.

It’ll take a couple of hours for the render to dry. Once dry the next step will be to add some texture.

Allow to dry before moving on to the next step. Allow to dry before moving on to the next step.
