I am restoring a Darth Vader figurine from back when I was a little kid, wanted to give him a new base with that Mustafar look. This was the perfect tutorial! Thank you!
I am assembling an army of Tyranids in the colors of Hive fleet hydra. I intend to make lava bases for them for color theory but also as a cheeky reference to planet Char from Starcraft. This tutorial will come in handy.
What is that type of material called? The card board looking stuff? Is it cardboard? If so what kind? Because that’s definitely not normal cardboard? I reminds me a the type of material you’d find in the bottom or backside of a cheap dresser drawer. I’ve seen others use this material but I can not find it
Depends on the weight of the model. For a normal marine, yer super glue. There are stronger epoxy glues too if you really want to push the boat out. This one was for magnus so I pinned him to the base. Some fine metal rod, drilled through the base and into his foot just adds extra security 👍
Its cork board, just a hobby supplies tile of it that I break up. Can buy over the internet but easiest is some local hobby place. Like this www.hobbycraft.co.uk/silhouette-cork-sheets-8-pack/640407-1000

It's called corkboard and used for notice boards where you stuck pins in. Found in all good hobby stores, in the UK Hobby Craft is best 👍
How do you go about attaching the model? Thinking about doing this for my terminator bases but didn’t know how to go about it. Just super glue?

@@SimplyWarhammerAwesome! Thank you!
Hi what do you call the brown felt to build the rocks.
Its cork board, just a hobby supplies tile of it that I break up. Can buy over the internet but easiest is some local hobby place. Like this www.hobbycraft.co.uk/silhouette-cork-sheets-8-pack/640407-1000
@@SimplyWarhammer thank you
pleasure 😊
where did you get your cork? i can't find anything thinner than 3/16 inch, yours looks much smaller than that
Its a rubbish answer but the manager of my local GW store gave me a sheet as had some spare ! that doesn't really help you I know sorry
@@SimplyWarhammer darn, indeed. the closest GW store is about 2h30 away lol. oh well thank you for taking the time to answer me ^^
Depending on where you are based, in the UK at least B&Q and Hobbycraft are places to buy it and have stores all over
@@SimplyWarhammerB&Q don’t sell it anymore, they quoted “environmental reasons” when I asked recently
