Jackanory Posted March 23, 2012 Report Posted March 23, 2012 Does anyone know of a company in the UK that does display bases for models? Basically just chunks of wood but preferably with some interesting knotting. As an example, the base that the guy on the left is standing on: Quote
Guild Monkee Posted March 23, 2012 Report Posted March 23, 2012 I've never seen anything like that commercially available, they've always been made from scratch by the painter. Quote
Undisclosed Posted March 24, 2012 Report Posted March 24, 2012 http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Fenris-Games Those guys do some resin ones, unfortunately i imagine the wooden ones are largely custom built. Quote

Serigala Posted March 24, 2012 Report Posted March 24, 2012 Depending on the size you need, I've always thought the lids of coffee jars had potential. There is a surprising variety available which are octagonal etc - not all of them are round. Quote

Jackanory Posted March 24, 2012 Author Report Posted March 24, 2012 Cheers guys! Some good stuff there. Looks like most of them are resin then. I think that should work! Quote
BillyGoat Posted March 25, 2012 Report Posted March 25, 2012 If you go to the basing section of this guy's site there's a bunch of tutorials on how to make bases like that: http://massivevoodoo.blogspot.com/2009/10/tutorial-overview.html Quote
