Too Fat Lardies

If you need sandpaper, you should seriously consider changing your diet...

yes I have used the Supreme Littleness sabot bases, but this is a different issue. It's a simple way to texture bases that wouldn't require the messing about with PVA and sand.

True, but I'm lazy. It would just be easier to have them as a perfect cut add-on product.

I was thinking more along the lines that Warbases or whoever offering the bases could use the identical cutting pattern on a sheet of sandpaper so that it was an exact match, and sell it as an add on to the base..

Killed the thread other than the spammers..

As usual, excellent work. Inspiring.

Rather nice. I've been tempted to buy the three pack so I can do one for the BEF, one for the Western Desert, and one for the Australians in the Far East.

Ears prick up... if only I would stop fannying about with 15mm Vikings and 28mm Jacobites and Hanoverians, and get on with painting Italians for Sicily.

So yesterday, I was prepping some of the Warbases 1p sabot bases I use for Sharp Practice. In this case, this involved applying white glue to the top of the base, and then covering in sand to get a texture. (Later I will add cat-litter rocks etc..) Having applied sand, I leave them to dry a little, ...

Or just don't paint them at all, since that tiny strip of colour on the uniform is invisible from the kind of scale distance you're viewing the miniatures at anyway!

I justify it in 28mm, not sure what I would do in 15 or 20. I do remember going insane painting it on 6mm.
