Basing Part 2
Bit of quiet time this morning, so a chance to get on with the basing.
I washed the “astrogranite” areas with a heavy application of AP Strong Tone ink, making it almost look black like the rest of the primed base.
Once dry I then dry brushed on AP Uniform Grey, building up to light drybrush of AP Ash Grey.
It feels a bit perverse to be painting stone, to look like stone. But the exaggerated highlights from the drybrush work well with the overall model. I think they provide a strong solid background that will help make the model pop on the table top.
Just need to tidy up the rim of the base and then I am going to experiment with adding a few dried/dead/scorched grass tufts poking up between some of the rocks.
Just a varnish and the final touches to go, before moving onto the rank and file troops.
test fit of the entire model
