Polishing the bejeesus out of them would really amplify the clarity on the sides. It’s amazing how clear resin is once it’s polished
These are great. I just bought a “start collecting” deepkin box and bases have been a huge factor in how i want to design them.
I've been dancing around the idea of using resin for a while now. This video convinced me to just go for it. Thank you!
These are so beautiful. When I first started getting into Sigmar, I wanted to choose the Deepkin because their model designs are so lovely, and these bases look like the perfect complement.
Incredible! planning on doing a tau army based on those beach troopers from Rogue One, thought it wouldnt look right without any water.
That's a dope idea actually. Hope it worked out for ya
Looks awesome! Personally I like the more transparent look with the larger bases. You can see further into them and don’t loose all of the details you put closer to the middle. Plus it gives more of a shallow water look IMO
Excellent video, very well spoken and extremely easy to understand. Nice job!
They look really great! I subscribed
Dude. They look fantastic. Great job. Your larger models look amazing too.
thanks a ton I was really happy with how they came out. they were my very first attempt at doing anything with resin so I figured I should share with the community how easy it was to do!
I loved this video!
I just poured my resin using your technique dude ! I'm about to wait for 24-84 hours and then remove the plastic sheets. Thank you so much, my Idoneths will look gorgeous thanks to you !
This is the best water base tutorial I've seen.
These are mind blowing
These all turned out really cool!
thanks a ton! I was really happy with them :)
These are awesome wish I could make these for my whole army would take a long time lol
Love this tutorial, going to try it very soon!! I used to work with resin, and wanted to offer a tip (hopefully it will help, if not as much as this video helped me) - you can go over your resin in the cup before pouring with a lighter or a heat gun to pop the bubbles, or give it a quick squirt with isopropyl alcohol :) definitely don't use isopropyl once it's poured though; it strips acrylic paint and will ruin your rocks
Thank you for this video, I've been using this video as a reference for my Skaven army for a couple of years now. I've based about 200 models in this style. Like you said, it's a lot easier than it looks to work with. I mix mine with some lime green pigment powder. I use the containment molds from Greenstuff world, which doesn't feature all of the base sizes, so I've had to build a mold myself each time that occurs. For the multitudes of Clanrats to get them batch-gunged, I used 25mm cap ends.
A few things I've done differently:
- I didn't paint the rim on the base. The resin will be going over the rim, so a coloured rim just looks weird. Either paint it in the colour of the rest of the base or the colour of the resin if you're using coloured resin.
- I did this and it's a word of warning: varnishing the model on the base will either make the bases' resin opaque or cloudy. I coloured my resin before pouring which was already translucent, but the varnish obscures almost all details I put inside the resin. If you don't want that, remove the model from the base before varnishing.
very helpful - thanks ;]
I don't get do this myself because of time and space for materials among other things,but it's awesome watching you work..
Also what is that song in your back ground,I couldn't stop listening to it 😂
I could never do that, that's a sign of a true artist! =(
These are quite easy to do - the main thing is to ensure you seal the resin properly. I use a thin strip of laminate (shiny side in) which I then sellotape, bit by bit to the base (I do NOT start by taping the strip to the base, as it can leave a mark). Once it is secured, you just pour in your resin mix, leave it for around 12-15 hours and remove the strip. Then leave it for another 24 hours to harden properly. If you muck about with it before then, it can still leave finger marks/prints etc....
thanks!
Great video. Thanks. Can you make some water dioramas please with space marines?
what, didn't know you made hobby videos earlier :)
Don't forget to trim and sand the edges, then use your lighter trick! makes it look REALLY clean.
PS - tat amount of dye was perfect!
You can also use contrast paint to color your water. It works quite nicely with just two drops!
That's amazing, I love those bases, question about the smell, how strong is it?
Im wondering if for making large amounts of these it would be easier to make a mould that the base can fit into out of a material that can flex and doesn't stick to resin. Then you build your base on a flat disk the size of the top of the base, put that at the bottom of the mould and then pour the resin over the top. Afterwards stick the puck to the base.
So have you got more info on how to deal with the raised edges? Would an exacto knife leave a nice finish?
Ah ah ah ah! Oh oh oh oh!
Cool bases, thanks for the tips. That music though... I was fed up after the two first minutes and struggled to watch to the end because of it.
ey ey ey oh oh oh yea yea >_> ^^
Yeah that music did my head in
Any idea if instead of resin + polystyrene sheets, for a much smaller amount of water could vallejo water texture + acetate sheets work?
How do think an entirely submerged Shark mini would look if I use very little or almost zero coloring agent to the resin water?
can you list the products used so I can copy your method exactly? It seems there are a few different water resin videos and they all use different stuff. I like your method the best by far~!
... how have I been a subbed (after Tiktok) yet it took a year for this video to finally show on my feed?
I use a heatgun for the bubbles as you can control the heat and air flow much better
Great tutorial! This is going to make expanding on my old Death Guard (who are marching through a swamp) waaaay easier. Only thing I would add is that I saw another video where the figures were placed into the water effect. The guy used a kid's Tylenol syringe to pump the resin around the figure. They seem pretty cheap online, too. Thanks again for showing this process!
I did this with some of the larger models but was worried it would obscure to much of the model on the smaller guys
Where can I find the letchin that you used in the video?
where I can find the shells and sea herbs
well done man !
These bases look great! I'm definitely going to have to try this technique. Also, just FYI, lichen is pronounced "lai-kin".
Hearing Vallejo paints make me sad 😆 bought a bunch of vallejo model air if memory serves me right and tried airbrushing (my gunpla) and a couple more for hand paiting but i didnt push thru with and its been sitting in storage for 4 plus years....
Btw, new fan here of your channel. Been reading W40K for a few years now, i started with Yarrick when i saw the cover of the book in my local bookstore and boom! Hooked ever since and yeah i followed with the Horus Heresy. Imho w40k universe is more exciting than my other book collection, Star Wars, but i do have like 30 plus books and illustrstions of SW and have em figures and vehicles. WH40K is tied to my Aliens, AVP and Predator books..
Hopefully, i could start collecting WH40K tabletop figs and probably try playing it or go with the 6" or was it 3.75 inch figures that i think is already out in the market.

How would you go about coloring the resin/changing it if you were trying to make like a deep murky sea green like a ocean sludge?
I'd experiment with a mixture of green and blue dye in a cup of water untill you get the color right. Then use the same amount in your resin
Yo this is awesome! Why not use washes to dye the resin instead of food coloring, tho?
Cheaper? Tbh I use inks as they're generally higher pigment count than washes
Hey I'm building some water bases for my exocrine but can't find a link for letchin, if some one could comment a link where I could buy some it would be greatly appreciated, thanks
Cool video, but I second the, "wow that music is obnoxious," comment.
Brilliant tutorial on the resin bases! But man....that music is fricking annoying.
I've hand the background music going round in my head for 3 days now 😥😥😥
What about that vertical line going up from where the strip ends meet? I can see it
you can file this down with your exacto. I did this on the ones I made for my army but skiped this step in the demonstration
@@weshammer and it'll look nice still?
@@LoftOfTheUniverse Yes! you can also bevile the edges at the top with the knife as well. if your worried about it you can use a less thick plastic to make the dam so you will get a much subtly mold line ( if any at all) and additionally most of the ones you make ( if your careful ) wont show a line at all. I didnt have really any lines show up on the ones I did as part of the deepkin army I made :)
Should I go ahead and do this for Death Guard army? 95 bases total…. Need a faster way of daming the bases
Could you make it higher? Example being, like half the shark? So maybe 3 inches?
Yup. You can make it as high and deep as you want. Bare in mind if you use uv resin you'll need more than a simple uv torch to cure it, but with epoxy it will be fine
do you wear a mask when working with resin? isn't the smell toxic?
95% Isopropyl Alcohol (Rubbing Alcohol) will release the hot glue. Just let capillary action pull a few drops between the hot glue and surface and it will release in short order.
Your the tiktok guy
the fact that you hadda point out "you don't HAVE TO go buy a specific shade, you can just mix paint to taste..." is genuinely terrifying. i worry about anyone who would argue against mixing tones/shades yourself.
Very good tutorial I love the water effect but like everyone else I hated the damn music, couldn't stand it after a minute. Every time you weren't talking I was just pushing the right arrow key to skip forward
Music is crap
This is the worst music I've ever heard.
Great video, very useful. But why is every instruction and every verb prefaced by 'go ahead and'....Very grating after a while
Sorry, you lost me. EE EE EE O O O O YEAH YEAH…Jesus Christ. I couldn’t watch any more.
recently discovered you had youtube but been following on tictok for awhile! you are very talented. but let-chen?
