Really nice video! Little bit of feedback if you dont mind: you might wanna try to find a better volume balance between your voice and the music, the music was way louder than anything else.
A lot of people will pin the model (drill a small hole in the foot and the base with a pin vice, then superglue a paperclip in the hole; Pete the Wargamer does thins a lot, if you want see it in action), or superglue. Adding baking soda to the superglue is supposed to make it much stronger
Doesn't the pigment come off when transporting models or anything like that? I've seen some people using a liquid to lock the pigments in. Look amazing though, going to have to try picking up some pigment.
Love your video, dislike your audio. Your eq makes it impossible to hear your voice without blowing out my speakers when your music drops. Headphones were the only way I could listen.
Emil, love your work I've just stumbled across your channel and have watched everything you've done. Absolutely love it, look very much towards your new videos, your channel is fantastic.
Always love your video's! I have been trying to get a european working amazon link for your MiniNatur bushes and shrubs and the taller Ivy-like plants to wrap around stuff. Is there a link I can use so percentages go to you?
Does anyone know where to get cork bark from? I've checked all my local pet shops and aquariums and going to check bunnings tomorrow but I can't find it anywhere.
Tja! Det spelar ingen större roll, så länge den inte är för glossy så är jag nöjd. Vissa är gjord med primer, sprayflaska, airbrush och andra med vanlig färg och pensel. Materialet suger åt sig färgen väldigt bra!
Very nice video! I still haven't opened your paint brushes... but now i'm here. Question, after you've built that amazing base, how do you mount your mini on it? Super glue?
Squidmar. My sweet, my idol, you are the Wood to my elf (Giggidy) jokes aside. My dude. Im new to warhammer as in I didn't know I can get them in my country. New to painting new to all so you could try to imagine how you look from my perspective * lights extra candles at your altar) could you maybe in a video idk show us your Sylvaneth collection? I bought a starter pack like billion colors and recently just ordered Drycha. Thing is I'd love to see your collection so I can well of course worship them and also to have like an inspration/model for my armies. I know I won't ever play warhammer don't have with who so I wanna make a scenery but I want Im not an artist I got no idea what to do would love if I could have your army as refrence if you wish it and of course if you could. That being said. Thank you kindly for your time! and I bid you a wonderful and thank you VERY much for your videos
Hi Nigel, sure there is a little fall off, but if you look at the one with model on it, I've had those for 5-6 months and two tournaments:) barely noticeable
Hey Emil, first thanks for your incredible videos, love them so much. They bring me back to the hobby 😊. Got a question, you talk about coconut fibers for forest floor and I ask you if you paint these fibers or you add them after the paint job is done?
@@SquidmarMiniatures I red that you have to check that the bark is demolded, or the spores can grow and give of poisonous vapours, but I guess the kind from a pet store are cleaned to not kill the animals... 😂
Out of curiosity do you know what brand the lamp is that you're using? Wouldn't mind getting something similar to that one. Haven't had any luck with it so far. The base came up really well!
Hi man, i have two different lamps. One round called Ledsavers 570 lumen. The wide one is TS LED Task Lamp. I really like both of them, but the second one is quite pricey, id recommend you buying two of the ledsavers over the TS Led Task Lamp.
@@SquidmarMiniatures checked out Amazon for cork bark and some cost like $35. Went to polish ebay like site and found 1kg bag for €10 :) happy camper :)
Tjenare! Vi har dem på Djurmagazinet i Umeå, alltså en vanlig djuraffär som också säljer akvariefiskar. Även vår spelbutik (Fantasia) har det inne i omgångar!

You should set up a discord or something where you can interact more easily with your subs and offer advice on models, would be good to get suggestions on some of my painting.
Won't be a problem when it's a thin layer, the ones you see have been on two tournaments without any problems. When I have thicker layers I set them with medium or varnish! :)

Imagine if May 2019 Squidmar knew how great he would become.
I was pretty certain i would have about 15k subs at this point. I thought that was a reasonable 1,5 year goal. I did not expect this crazy support 😍
This comment ages like a fine wine. He's blown up like a blimp!
586k.
Really nice video! Little bit of feedback if you dont mind: you might wanna try to find a better volume balance between your voice and the music, the music was way louder than anything else.
Thanks Anne, hopefully the levels are fixed for the videos that came after this :) otherwise i have to make it even lower.
What do you say when you get a miniature abacus for your birthday? It's the little things that count.
heh, I really like to watch old videos - it's super amazing to see where everything started. Hi from 2023
Interesting use of the pigment. Can't say this is a step that I'm currently using
Amazing video, this was the best tutorial I have ever seen for basing me it makes the bases look amazing 😮
thanks for those video. I was wondering how you get the pigment to stick on the base? glue or something?
Nice Base! Which Flowersets from Mininatur do you use exactly? Great Work! :)
Really nice! Thankss for showing us your method
How do you secure the model to the base?
A lot of people will pin the model (drill a small hole in the foot and the base with a pin vice, then superglue a paperclip in the hole; Pete the Wargamer does thins a lot, if you want see it in action), or superglue. Adding baking soda to the superglue is supposed to make it much stronger
genius cork bark idea totally headed down to my pet store to pick someup i use cork all the time but it can get a bit boring
Doesn't the pigment come off when transporting models or anything like that? I've seen some people using a liquid to lock the pigments in.
Look amazing though, going to have to try picking up some pigment.
If you only have a thin layer it's fine, if thicker is seal it.
Love your video, dislike your audio. Your eq makes it impossible to hear your voice without blowing out my speakers when your music drops. Headphones were the only way I could listen.
Wow 2019 Emil probably couldn't have even guessed how big the Chanel is now.
This is very true haha
any tricks to getting the model onto uneven surfaces without him standing completly crooked?
Emil, love your work I've just stumbled across your channel and have watched everything you've done. Absolutely love it, look very much towards your new videos, your channel is fantastic.
Same here! I like how you are showing the full steps with detail.
Super dope!
Do you seal pigment somehow or how does it work?
Will definitely look into this, about to make my wood elves soon 😄
Depends on how much pigments I have. If it's just a thin layer I don't, but if I have more, I use the one from vallejo :)
Always love your video's! I have been trying to get a european working amazon link for your MiniNatur bushes and shrubs and the taller Ivy-like plants to wrap around stuff. Is there a link I can use so percentages go to you?

Dumma frågar, vilka färger är det du använt dig av? När det gäller det svarta, är det svart primer eller är det bara vanlig svart färg?
Tja! Det spelar ingen större roll, så länge den inte är för glossy så är jag nöjd. Vissa är gjord med primer, sprayflaska, airbrush och andra med vanlig färg och pensel. Materialet suger åt sig färgen väldigt bra!
Wait a second I saved this video awhile back for basing ideas. Are you a San Jose Sharks fan?
I love hockey in general. I mainly follow oilers though :)
Very nice tutorial, thank you for that! You just need to adjust the volume of the videos.
Small bits of slate also make great rocks
Whats the music you used please ?
great except for the music
Vad finns det för warhammer-kanaler som snackar svenska?
Finns inga vad jag vet
@@SquidmarMiniatures *tear
I like to use super glue which is more like a gel (made by cisco/sika)... It stay still and will glue it more firmly.
On lazy days i use super glue too! Works faster and sets harder. But pva is soo much cheaper and faster to apply when i work on larger quantities.
have you ever made a marble base?
👍👍👍
Really glad for finding your channel! Keep it up!
This is spot one righteousness!! Earned my sub!! Thanks so much for being epic
Very nice video! I still haven't opened your paint brushes... but now i'm here. Question, after you've built that amazing base, how do you mount your mini on it? Super glue?
The Music in this Video is the same as in a German Commercial for Sanitary napkins. Creepy when you can`t get it out of your head......;-))
I'm really looking for inspiration for jungle themed basing.
Hello my friend...very good job but i want to ask you something...after the pigment you put on it anythong or you just leave it like this...
thanks

Back ground music was very horrible made it harder to hear . Other then that good video.
great tutorial~! will definately try that..!!! Also may i ask what is the title of the BG music that you used in this vid? thanks!
Hey mate, glad you like it. The music is from UA-cam audio library, can't remember the names. Sorry.
These look awwsome, good luck with the chanel, look forward to seeing more.
mate love your style! what's the music it's really calming lol
Thx mate! :D try to find decent music for free is a challenge, they are some gold nuggets out there though :D
Thank you so much for your content.
You Guys helped me Out so much improving my basing and miniature painting!
Nice job, do you have any problems with the pigment rubbing/falling off overtime?
Hi Nigel, sure there is a little fall off, but if you look at the one with model on it, I've had those for 5-6 months and two tournaments:) barely noticeable
I seal everything with anti shine spray.
How do you attach the mini to the forrest base? Do you use glue or pins?
Hey Emil, first thanks for your incredible videos, love them so much. They bring me back to the hobby 😊. Got a question, you talk about coconut fibers for forest floor and I ask you if you paint these fibers or you add them after the paint job is done?
Looks good. Are you crushing the pigment on or is there glue still there to bind it? I know some pigment will rest, but that looks pretty rich.
Lovely, the evolution of the videos, is amazing.
Amazing bases. Thank you now I feel inspired to paint and base my new Kragnos model.
Great video Emil. I have used it about 3 times now to make all sorts of things.
I'm still too nervous to use pigment. But maybe one day!
Great video again 😊 Perfect timing as i'm about to start the base of my Alarielle.
Kul Thomas! :D du får visa resultatet sedan!
Squidmar Miniatures Thanks, sendt you a PM on Instagram 😊
Awesome! Where do you buy your bark?
@@DorgaMoria Djurmagazinet Mariedal, but i think Fantasia will be having it in stock any time now!
@@SquidmarMiniatures I red that you have to check that the bark is demolded, or the spores can grow and give of poisonous vapours, but I guess the kind from a pet store are cleaned to not kill the animals... 😂
Did you do something specific to hold pigments in place ? :)
Do you leave the bits of sand on the edge of the bases or do you usually tidy up?
pls do more basing vids. i need them in my life!
What makes the pigment stick
Out of curiosity do you know what brand the lamp is that you're using? Wouldn't mind getting something similar to that one. Haven't had any luck with it so far. The base came up really well!
Hi man, i have two different lamps. One round called Ledsavers 570 lumen. The wide one is TS LED Task Lamp. I really like both of them, but the second one is quite pricey, id recommend you buying two of the ledsavers over the TS Led Task Lamp.
Great looking base. Do you find any issues with NOT using a pigment fixer?
When its just a thin layer its completely fine. As long its not on a part where a finger would touch frequently!
Riktigt bra tutorial. Hade aldrig tänkt på det där med olika färger på stenen och att torrborsta med rosa.
Fungerar bra md hudton en "solig dag". Ska du göra typ en dunkel kväll eller lerig grotta kan du prova drybrusha med grön eller blå eller liknande :)
Beautiful!
Nice 👍
Does the pigment powder need anything else to keep on the base? How do you keep it from coming off on everything else?
Thin layers of pigment don't need any varnish to set. If you want to use it to make thick mud you need something to set it to the base.
Nice. Im shit with basing so good to see your stuff.
Glad I can help! :D

Epic win mate! Thank God for poland!
@@SquidmarMiniatures hahahahah.
Doesn't moss only grow on one side of stuff? I'm no nature scientist though
Moss grows in low light and high moisture; in a exposed area, this may mean only one side, but in a forest or cave, it can be all over
Look awesome!!!
Tjena Emil!
Vart fick du tag på Korkbarken? Har letat o letat men ingen lycka.

@@SquidmarMiniatures Awesome! Useful to know. I tend to only use pigments rarely, since I don't like sealing them, but I'll try that!
yes!:)
Nice looking and great tutorial!
expensive hobby, definitely not for me. I enjoy watching nonetheless
You can find stuff on the cheap on second hand sites like Craigslist, but glad you enjoyed the video none the less :)
It's really one of the cheaper hobbies out there. It's just relatively expensive for plastic.
Where can I get my hands on some of that corkbark? :) (I also live in sweden)
Nvm, I saw now that you put it in the descriptionbox! :) My bad!
Here, in Italy ;)
love your videos
