Basius - Warpath - Wargames Bakery - General Ramblings #4
Being a closet Kickstarter trawler, I acquired a few Basius2 negatives, more importantly I got my hands on the number 08 - Warpath plate.
Essentially is a resin negative.
Here is the result.
Given the base was very much larger than the piece of green stuff I had rolled, I started adding my usual basing extras to cover the empty portions of the base.
More to come.
So what is Basius ?
Essentially is a resin negative.
Now what you do with it is as follows:
- Make a ball of green stuff, keep it damp.
- Place your green stuff onto a base.
- Grab your Basius negative and wet the section you're interested in. You wet the mold so the green stuff takes the molding but doesn't stick to the Basius negative.
- Press your base, loaded with the damp green stuff, and press it into the newly wetted Basius plate.
- Et Voila!
So here is what the relief would look like, courtesy of the Wargames Bakery site.
I choose a section that I thought would be most interesting.
Now there is a few things to note about making negative impression relief molds, or less convoluted, press-fit bases.
- It uses a fair amount of green stuff.
- On large bases, it uses a LOT of green stuff.
Here is the result.
Given the base was very much larger than the piece of green stuff I had rolled, I started adding my usual basing extras to cover the empty portions of the base.
You will notice the white parts are Magic-sculpt.
More to come.
