What a Tanker! Bases

 



I like to base my vehicles and AFV's as it protects them a bit from knocks and adds a bit of a visual boost. I'm using mdf rectangles with rounded edges from Warbases for the purpose but only have ones that fit the Shermans at the moment, so have been limited to a single model. The base was quickly textured with acrylic artist's paste, spray undercoated with Halfords Ultra Matt Camo Brown, then given a couple of wet and dry brush coats of Foundry Bay Brown shade and Bay Brown. It's basic to say the least but does the job!

  1. Bases also encourage players to move them without grabbing your nice paintwork!

  2. ...handily preventing the 'eeek' moment when something snaps off or drops off into the carpet.
