    Well "badly" isn't a word I'd use to describe those paintjobs. They're looking great, keep us updated!

    Man both the colour scheme and painting style is just awesome! I really love the Daiyokai, looks like it popped straight out of a comic page xD

    Also gotta say, those are some spectacular bases! I've got similar looking ones with the hexagon pattern, but with roads instead of metal grating. Did you make them yourself? I like the added bits too, fits in really well :)

    Looking forward to seeing more of your stuff!

    It takes about 5 min to make the base and about 1 hour to print. It's really not that much XD I will post picture of the process later :)

    aaaand here is the base building process.

    i have made this easy to use, well for myself atleast.
    [​IMG]
    first i copy the base size insert i want
    [​IMG]
    then i take my premade hexgrid pattern and paste it over the base
    [​IMG] [​IMG]
    and merge them into this
    [​IMG]
    then i take some scatter terrain and stuff i found on thingiverse and pastes onto the base
    [​IMG]
    cuts it to base size and done
    [​IMG] [​IMG]

    these three took about 4 minuts to make, all in all

    @bolin Thank you very much for these tutorials. It makes creating and painting our own bases seem much earlier than once thought.

    here you go. everything made with brush
    first paints i used. also i used a druuchi violet wash and white ;)
    [​IMG]
    first black
    [​IMG]
    thenn illustration violet.
    [​IMG]
    then 4 layers of very diluted alien purple
    [​IMG]
    two very diluted washes over all of the surface
    [​IMG]
    4 layers of orc blood on the edges
    [​IMG]
    Pink hex edges
    [​IMG]
    and white where edges meet.
    [​IMG]

    its not AS good as the airbrush. but very decent

    This is the kind of thing we can do now thanks to silhouettes, amazing. Still, the best way to keep them firm is either pinning, or even better, turning the slot tab into pins (explanation here that i ripped from a defunct blog post). That way it's likely you'd have to destroy the base to remove the mini from it if you wanted to, and there'd be very few chances of it coming off accidentally.
