I might have to glue some washers inside their bases.Darryl Hunthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12982592357073733415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3380556725158824209.post-34863956857901589112015-04-02T09:20:04.993-07:002015-04-02T09:20:04.993-07:00I hear you - I like washers because they are super...I hear you - I like washers because they are super cheap and a piece of scotch tape provides something to glue flock/etc. to - the weight is also nice for plastic figures so a little bump doesn't knock them all over the place.<br /><br />I play tons of blood bowl and if there's one thing I know it's a huge scrum of figures with arms,etc. all getting in each other's way. I wanted to avoid any issues for dungeoneering so it had to be round bases so they can rotate any way to fit. :)Tristan Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14542205146980688446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3380556725158824209.post-12248934251762978732015-04-01T12:46:56.486-07:002015-04-01T12:46:56.486-07:00When I first started the project I took a long har...When I first started the project I took a long hard look at square versus round bases and at the time I had very few round and I could cut square bases reasonably easily. Having said that I have seen loads of great looking models on circular bases which have made me question my decision. Trouble is I'm a bit stuck in square mode, so to speak, although I get to use circular bases on my 40K/Five Parsecs models. By the way thanks for feedback/chat Tristran :-) Darryl Hunthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12982592357073733415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3380556725158824209.post-68761458059444196112015-04-01T11:34:01.752-07:002015-04-01T11:34:01.752-07:00Because I anticipate using these as quest baddies ...Because I anticipate using these as quest baddies too, they will be getting my standard <a href="http://gwpertinent.blogspot.com/2011/04/awesome-partners-or-how-i-got-some-help.html" rel="nofollow">whq washer bases</a>.<br /><br />I use the same on my LoTR orcs & goblins and I have a bunch of magnetized square bases I could stick them on for mordheim use :)Tristan Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14542205146980688446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3380556725158824209.post-61798081389204859332015-04-01T11:25:46.688-07:002015-04-01T11:25:46.688-07:00Well at the moment I'm not feeling very confid...Well at the moment I'm not feeling very confident, but will give it my best shot. Have just realised that non of the Skaven I have, have square bases, so that will be my first job. Time to get the bandsaw out. Will post as soon as I make some progress.Darryl Hunthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12982592357073733415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3380556725158824209.post-62575958791398102682015-04-01T09:27:09.899-07:002015-04-01T09:27:09.899-07:00Have a similar but smaller bundle of skaven I kept...Have a similar but smaller bundle of skaven I kept for mordheim/quest purposes.
