Milmaa's Black Legion
Bases
Ready to go.Finally settled on these “Concrete” bases from Micro Art Studio, very pleased with the quality and with how they turned out!
I followed Sam from WGO’s method that he used for my Abaddon base.
- Grey spray primer
- Paint the metal work
- mix of Nuln Oil, Agrax Earthshade, and Medium
- Dry brush rubble with Dawnstone then Karak Stone.
- Good covering with AK Interactive’s Summer Kursk Earth.
- After 5-10 minutes remove some of the Kursk Earth with a cotton bud and some white spirit
- when happy with the result let dry
- Add tufts
- Spray varnish and done.
Simple and a great way to get a batch done. He has a video on their site as a tutorial. Very happy with how it turned out! 🙂
On to the next stage… painting some marines to fit on the bases!
Great looking, almost post-apocalyptic urban bases. Perfect for a war-torn city of the 41st millennium.
the base work looks very effective 🙂 the desert tufts really give them a dry arid feel, very cool 🙂 looking forward to seeing these based up with the minis 😉
Thanks very much guys, means a lot! It took me an age to pick this style out and it was worth the long hours of searching… I think 🙂
I did want to use the tufts to add a little colour in, and give it that feel of neglect.
