I'll be needing at least 60 small bases for the cultists so getting a sample to see up close before I commit to ordering that much would be really nice. |

Ok, this is a few days late but here we go, a review for the bases I bought. --------------- Ok, so I got them earlier and have been painting them on and off the last couple of hours. First impressions - 1. Really detailed and that is great, makes it very easy to paint. 2. Love the cogs, my inner steampunker was very happy ![]() 3. Where am I supposed to put the model's feet? 4. I can use my old method of painting rocks to great effect here, that is give them some kind of a stone grey basecoat, and then give them 2, maybe 3 washes of a dark brown or a dark red (I use Baal Red myself), and they turn out great. 6. Why does the base have a white trim bother me so much? I had to paint over it with some Necron Abyss because the white ring that's below the details was bugging me to no end o.0 Ok, end result - I'm very satisfied and I'll order more as soon as I use up these ones Point 3 is pretty big though. These have a lot of detail, but unless I want all my troopers posing I'm going to have to fiddle with these a bit to make some room for the feet of the miniature. I say keep most of these casts - they're pretty awesome and I love them - but put them under 'added height/with a rock/whatever' bases, and make some with a bit more room on the ground itself. Otherwise, like I said these are great and I'm really glad I got a chance to paint a few of these before I left. The sculpt really allows me, a somewhat mediocre painter, to churn out great looking bases with a minimum of effort AND I get to keep my armys' themes all unified, because I will be getting more of these in the future. I hope you accept my humble criticism, because that is probably the only thing that can make these better ![]() ---------- TL;DR, you should get these because they're cheap and awesome. Thank you Grim

I tend to remember things off the top of my head as opposed to checking, so please excuse and correct any official fluff mistakes I make. A lot of it also personal interpretation and theory, so feel free to disagree as well, I won't mind | |

Sounds good. I'm still waiting for the few samples, but if they look fitting, then I'll get 60 small ones and 2 dreadnought bases for my Chaos Warband. |

The sample arrived today and I must say the bases are wonderfull. The casting is excellent quality and the details are crisp. No sign of casting failures. They are also pretty well detailed all in all. The only problem I see is that positioning the model does require some additional work as there are no clear spots left for models feet. As my Chaos Warband project is (yet again) pushed back due to Forge Worlds recently released Horus Heresy Era Legion List and my ongoing Heresy Era Raven Guard project I decided to use these bases for the rest of the Heresy Era Ravens. Expect an order soon. Edited by polaria, Oct 12 2012, 01:06 PM.

Okay, the rest of my list needs 30 bases, but in case I want to add something new to the list I don't want to run out off the bases... So I'll order 40 on one go

Sent you a PM so we can work out details. Also My bases have been picked up by a local game and comic book store (Twin Suns comics.) So please feel free to order bases threw them as well. Here is a link to their store. http://twinsunscomics.com/ Edited by Grimdisco, Oct 14 2012, 05:59 PM.
