Nice to see another tea basing enthusiast! I've long been tooting the horn of tea leaf bases, both loose leaf and bagged (every now and again, I'll leave a used tea bag on the kitchen windowsill to dry and top up my basing supplies... 😜). That and ready mixed filler from Wilko's are my go-to materials...
Have a lot of time for this, Harry Hausen along with Gerry Anderson and Nick Park were the reasons I pursued a love for miniatures and animation throughout my life. Great vid bruv.
@@MSPaints Isn't it? I know the game hasn't aged that well and maybe it was never that great to begin with, but it's pure nostalgia to me and I do love the music!
Dave my main man you are killing it with your vids! My favourite channel for hobby stuff by a mile! Can’t wait for more stuff as I’ve rinsed your back catalogue in 2 days lol 😆 keep it up !
Thermofloc insulation and plaster and water. You could put newspaper into a blender and get something similar. But 40kgs of paper pulp for £50 did me right. Been using it for 4 years and not even half way through the bag!
what got you into role playing games? What is your favorite miniature you have painted? What do you do to keep mentally healthy when your MS flairs up? You ever think of doing a live Q and A on youtube, say for 30 minutes to an hour? Whats your favorite cartoon from your childhood? What is one of your accidental mistakes that turned out to be a great discovery in your work? Who is your favorite artist? What other youtubers are your influences? Do you think the Miniwitch is really a witch? what do you think of AEW? Do you get recognized in public and has it ever been a hassle? What charities do you support? Do you regret asking if we have any questions? Do you regret it now? How about now? You a fan of The Road Warriors Hawk and Animal? Do you regret it now? How do you stay positive when life is bringing you down? Do you know that you are amazing?
Amazing work, I do have a question though. Why the rubbing alcohol before the PVA? I am about to base by entire game board for kill team in a similar way and I dont want to fuck it up.
So the pre wetting soaks the base, but water will sit on top of your materials and move them around. Alcohol has such a low surface tension it soaks straight in. This holds it in place and allows the right heavier pva and water to properly soak. Hope that helps!
Whilst on a biology field trip, I was tasked with sampling "how many shits nature was giving", at my local broad leaf forest. Using a complicated indexing system. I came to the conclusion it was 0.000001, which is basically zero!
Hey, hey! What happened to the intro? It's missing something and I cannot quite put my finger on it. I feel compelled to yell a profanity, but I don't know why. Almost like I dropped something important and it broke. A singular word wants to come out in an angry tone, but... ah it will come to me I'm sure. Awesome video, you FU... oh man, what is coming over me?
Q&A!!! DROP ME A QUESTION BELOW. I’ll be doing an end of year Q&A and getting the questions in early! Thank you!
Have you ever wanted to murder some other UA-camr over the way they do hobby a certain way?
@@SunDancerGE is that a hint? Hahaha

What is your favorite mini paint job you did and one someone else did.
If you have a dream project, that you didn't make for some reason yet, what is it? And why you didn't make it?

Love that you actually use the teabag and dry it out, hahaha
@@MSPaints Well, I'm hardly gonna waste good tea _just_ on bases! 🤣
Have a lot of time for this, Harry Hausen along with Gerry Anderson and Nick Park were the reasons I pursued a love for miniatures and animation throughout my life. Great vid bruv.
Great work again Dave - but am I the only one who would have stopped at 3:58 as it looks great/natural to me already? :)
I second that! :))
Definitely going to give this a go for my swamp orcs
I was struggling with these type of bases until I saw the alcohol/capillary tip. Thanks!
No problemo! It makes a huuuuuge difference
06:00 OMG! Instant transportation to 1997 when 9-year old me played the crap out of Atlantis!
Such a great track!
@@MSPaints Isn't it? I know the game hasn't aged that well and maybe it was never that great to begin with, but it's pure nostalgia to me and I do love the music!
I got to see the Harryhausen collection too! great experience. Think Me and my bro were the only ones in town to bother going to the exhibition...
Great wasnt it?! Was quiet when we went too. I expect it made its money in the summer holidays.
Another awesome video my friend. This has given my ideas for a perfect Endor base for my SW Legion Speeder Truck.
Excellent! Need to get back into legion when I have time!
Great stuff man, cant wait for that Harryhausen vid too. I grew up wanting to make monsters like him.
I’m hype for it! Just need to figure out what my angle is!
Dave my main man you are killing it with your vids! My favourite channel for hobby stuff by a mile! Can’t wait for more stuff as I’ve rinsed your back catalogue in 2 days lol 😆 keep it up !
Crikey! I’ll have to get my arse in gear! Thanks for the love man!
@@MSPaints chop chop then me old son lol 😝
Love those bases they really finish of the last vids models. Can’t wait for the Ray monster vid, he was truly a pioneer in that genre.
I've been looking forward to more "Making Seraphon great again!" videos. Didn't disappoint!
Yet another cracking video bud. Love these bases, they look spot on and really sui the models.
Great video again. Nice to see your processes, even the get "some" colours and dry brush process part, top work.
Excellent vid, been looking for inspiration and tips for my dread saurain base. Will definitely be using some of this!
Oooooh he’s a model deserving of a base!
Great work on the bases.
Chaaaaaars!
Great video with lots of good tips, and I love your “delivery” style. Thanks for this tutorial, and please keep new ones coming!
Great work Mate as usual and another tune that will stick for the evening 🔥 cheers! Ajeajejaaaajee
Gonna be in your head for daaaaaaays
Thanks for another great video.
Anytime, baybay!
I'm always looking forward to the next video. Excellent pacing, love the tunes, the editing and the overall message. Nature gives no fucks.
One thing i never see people mentioning is grape vines they make fantastic detailed little trees, i love 'em
I had not thought of this. I’ve been using coconut fibre, but I’ll check the vibes out cheers
Another great video, really useful stuff!!!
it was the Harryhausen appreciation that convinced me to sub on patreon, even though youre from the wrong side ot' Pennines. Big Love from Manchester.
Ray Harry Hausen is a hero of mine too!
We gonna show him all the love.
@@MSPaints Was the museum like walking into a holy shrine?
brilliant videos as usual mate
Really awesome looking bases there! Now I just got to decide what models next need some jungle terrain bases…
Question for you - like Luke, are you into Kings of War? Your basing techniques would be amazing for multibasing the units!
Not yet I haven’t! It’s on the list.
Amazing man!
still amazing. you rock
YOU STILL GOT IT *clapclap-clapclapclap*
Great base, can’t wait for a video on Harryhausen, a master miniature maker who made them come to life and walk around
nice!
Hello, i'm looking for grass like at 3:34, do you have the ref please ? I only find ugly aquarium stuff... Great work !
Would you do an easy swamp bases video , maybe with some resin swamp puddles too?
Would love to! Haven’t done any for myself yet but when I do I’ll figure it out and see about doing a video!
It’s cool using tea leaves and herbs but a question: would these not break down or bio degrade in time?
Probably not in a short enough timespan for that to be of concern I don’t think.
I am curious as to why do you soak it with rubbing alcohol, what is the effect of doing it? Love your videos, thank you for sharing.🙏🏻
It makes glue flow and soak in
@@Hobbyrepubliken That's great to know, thank you for replying. Another useful hobby tool. Cheers🍻
amazing job man!! youre great! one question, how'd you do your homemade sculptor mud? thanks a lot!
Thermofloc insulation and plaster and water. You could put newspaper into a blender and get something similar. But 40kgs of paper pulp for £50 did me right. Been using it for 4 years and not even half way through the bag!
@@MSPaints Thanks for response man! amazing job, like a lot all of you vids
wow - using top brand "Scwartz" 'erbs. Aren't you fancy!?! Great vid as always Dave.
Think they was a gift from me mam when I moved out of my music studio into a real house, hahaha

Do you need to bake the sticks/organic bits? Will this go mouldy over time?
You're a real life BO-selecta character, but i like it
Heron representttt
Oh man, may my freezer be forever full
Would the spices and herbs attract bugs?
I don’t think so… certainly not in the north of England.
General Kenobi!
**WHEEZES**
I come here for Jungle bass.....and all I got was a very handy How to video on basing.....ah well Big up your chest
hey, excuse my ignorance, but why the rubbing alcohol soak?
Nature don’t give a shit so why should you! 😂 love it.
Great video.
Great T shirt idea MS Paints
Sub for Alien 3 reference alone 👍🏻
Aaaaaaaaaa-men!
How big is that jungle?
Still love the fact they are called pat butcher and Ray mysterio
Hahaha, not sure who’s gonna end up being Ian Beale.
@@MSPaints Oh please do a grant mitchel
@@elstonation noted. At some point I’ll drop a Grant and Phil. I dunno when. But it’s coming.
the music sounds like final fantasy what is it? or like Suikoden
Deep Labyrinth I think.
Yes thats it thanks 😁
Bloody hell, I'm going to have to sort my airbrush out aren't I?
You know it baybay. You can absolutely do all this with stippling though my man.
Why pat butcher and Rey Rey?
Why not Pat Butcher and the 619?

I have data to back your zippy-nes! Great to see another video brother!
"Lets get back to the jungle"

Effortless, tireless, profound.
Not entirely tireless mate I’ll be honest.
You make it look tireless. I do not doubt the hard work you put in. Excellent channel. Stay slinky!
The immediacy of that reply makes me seem a bit of a saddo. Rest assured that assumption is correct 😬😬

yeah, we didn't get tot yell Fuck with you
AH yes, miniature painters...
-Put dirt and leaves on base
-basecoat dirt and leaves
-Paint dirt and leaves like dirt and leaves
I often wonder if it's worth it to paint the base if I'm putting stuff like that onto it anyway.
I’ll waste my time however I choose.
you need swag so we can mark out to you
What? Like merch?
@@MSPaints yep shirts, hoodies, etc
Does heron still exist? 🤣
Yeah it does. Rare, but they do exist.
OI, not just textured paste that's dry-brushed you pleb, there's tufts aswell lol
Sorry mate I forgot about the tufts haha.
