Dazza,
very nice job. I love your figures but also your bases.
Can you explain to me how you realize your bases? What sort of color paint references and what sort of grass.

Hi there BH62,

The figures I have painted for Dazza have been based using the following method.

Once the figures have been stuck onto the base I apply several layers fine sand using HI-Tack (very sticky) Glue.  Because of the thinness of the figure base you normally only have to do this twice.

Once the sand has dried (this happens very quickly using the glue mentioned) I then paint the base using Sepia Calligraphy Ink.  This gives depth to the sand, I then dry brush twice using Matt emulsion tester pots.  The first is with Milky Coffee the second with Chocolate Dream.

Once dry I apply several dabs of glue to each base before shaking over a home mixed flock knocking of any excess.  After that I apply a few extra details using mininaturur summer tufts 717-22 and two different shades of terrain foam.

I hope that is of some help to you.

The militia look suitably rough and ready.  :)

Brilliant figures and how lucky to have found such a good painter. Have been sitting on about 800 of these lovely figures over the last few years-never had time to paint them.

Decided to go onto the dark side and have them painted for me. Will be thrilled if they look like yours.

Loved the battle shots.  Was thinking of basing them in 6's, but having seen yours based in 4's, I might have to reconsider.

Best wishes    DaveL

Utterly stunning, the sculpting and painting is beyond words!
Truly inspiring.
I tip my hat to the genius of it all.
