Question: What do you do with the bases? You add some fine cardboard under the metal?

Question: What do you do with the bases?

Why? What's wrong with the bases?

Beautiful figures! These are the British I have been waiting for. Light equipment, skirmishing.

Typically put the figures on 3/4 inch bases (about 19mm for the rest of the world) made from formica with magnetic bottom, paint them brown, and add green and brown flocking.

What is "fine" cardboard

Re: Bases

You can use metal washers, plastic disks, pre-cut sheet metal, pre-cut MDF wood, GW 20mm or 25mm plastic bases, Warmachine-style "shoulder" bases, resin bases, etc. – and add groundwork as mentioned. Some people will mount several figures together on a larger base (like a GW 40mm square base). All sorts of options are possible.

Love the figures too! Paul Hicks can do no wrong in my books.

Thanks for your guidance my friend.
Fine carboard is what I used under the metal bases (smile).
