Basing Part 1
Trying something new for me, so this might be a bit hit and miss….
I decided to go for a rocky base. I started by arranging some pieces of slate on the base. I was trying to find an arrangement that would allow the Magmadroth to stand flat in its final position. I then unfilled the spaces around with further pieces of slate, super gluing them into place.
I then pooled superglue into the gaps inbetween the slate and filled these with small chips of rock.
The natural stone had some nice colours, but the slate and chipped rock were different stones so it looked a bit odd, I also wanted a darker base to really contrast and frame the bright red Magmadroth. So I primed the entire base black.
Following this I used a GW citadel texture paint Astrogranite Debris applying it quite thickly to the remaining flat areas of the base.
I’m hoping to get three different layers of texture, between the big flat slabs of rock, interspersed with smaller rocks and then the broken up texture of the debris.
Will have to let this dry and see how it turns out.
