Obsidian Golems (with a twist)
Scrum and Base
Right to left: Borscht (shield and hammer elbow), Sparky (sparking the idea, with the spikey shoulder) and Gored (with hammer and spear)I played around with the order of my minis after getting them pretty much finished and found that they wouldn’t rank up side by side.
Rather than re-base them I decided that I could use some foam board, remove the top layer and dig down into it and put the minis at different heights to get them ranked up…
5mm foam board
2mm border cut around the edge and digging out the core in the middle.…and then as I started to play with the arrangement of the three minis, I found that there was a way for all three to rank up anyway. Lol.
I found that if I cut short the hammer of the gent with the dwarf shield on his shoulder, that they could scrum down as a tight front row after all.
I decided to persevere with the base anyway.
I created a drop of about 2-3mm by digging out foam with a hobby knife and the lip is about 2mm wide which is acceptable in game terms.
I covered the whole thing in a sand, plaster PVA mix and sprayed it grey (Grey Halfords Plastic Primer)
Whilst waiting for the movement tray to dry... Here's the correct layout for my golems.
