Marble Bases Warhammer

I took to twitter asked fellow painters for tutorials and resources and i was not disappointed.

Marble bases warhammer. Are there any tutorials on creating a tile marble effect for mode bases i have a marble courtyard for my armies on parade display board and i am trying to figure out how to base my miniatures so that it matches said courtyard. I ll post a pic when i get home. I made up some marble bases for my custodes. These lines should be roughly 1mm in width and very translucent with some looking slightly thicker than others.

Painting marble bases posted by admin on 19 09 2013 at 11 32 am in this tutorial we re going to covers how to paint marble effect on smooth surfaces such as miniature bases or pillars. I was given a ton of great stuff to look at. Apply glaze lines of 50 50 administratum grey and lahmian medium moving in roughly the same direction across the surface of the base. Do a google images search under marble you should find something out there.

I m actually working on some terrain for warhammer fantasy aos i ll post some pictures on next days. I couldn t find anything premade that fit exactly what i wanted so i ended up getting some sheets of plasticard cutting them into tiles and then gluing the tiles to the base before painting them. The leather piercer works on maximum of 2mm 3mm and sometimes i have to push a metal tip to help the exit of accumulated plasticard d molds are a viable option to make a lot of bases but i suggest to use resin instead of putty. A center for all things warhammer 40 000.

So i decided i wanted to paint marble effect on the bases of my steelheart s champions warband for shadespire. So the first thing to do is find a marble pattern that you like the look of. You can support me for as little as 1 a month over on my patreon page. A while ago i posted this how to paint marble on a forum but it was a members only area and thought it may help people.

Feel free to look at pictures of actual marble for inspiration but there should be an element of randomness to it.
