I'm all about that base, about that base...

Now that I’m really happy with the painting across the Mr Stomptato, its time to start all the finishing details and touches that make a model “complete”.
As it’s the last messy job, I’m going to get the base done.
For ease, I’m sticking to a tried and tested desert type basing effect.
- I’ve already glued some pieces of bark onto the base as rocks, and then used PVA Wood glue to add some fine gravel.
- Next, I painted the whole base in XV-88.
- Once dry, drybrush with Ushabti Bone and then Pallid Wych Flesh
- Wash with Seraphim Sepia. I go for an even wash, and then while wet a heavier wash underneath the model to make a deeper shadow effect.
- Finally, once dry – a lighter drybrush of Pallid Wych Flesh to brighten the edges.
