Does anyone use this kind of thing for basing models with?
What should one consider before doing so? Apply before or after priming? |

I myself do not. I would think that Silflor type clumps would be sufficient at that sort of thing. |

I've never heard of anyone using teddy bear fur on figure bases. Static grass, clumps and flock are far better for that. |

Only heard of it being used as fields or grass. I would imagine it'd be tough to use on a base, but would integrate well if the table had any as terrain. |

Yup, WAY too much work. You'd have to cut it to the shape of the base and then cut a hold for the mini. Tedious work. Not to mention how much work it is to paint the darn stuff. Fine if you're going to do a 4' mat but would look crappy done in 1" pieces. Makes great fields though! |

I base my teddy bears with the fur still on them, thank you! |

I've considered doing this myself but I'm not sure that it's worth the hassle. Post some pictures about your experience! |

I did find this, but it's not what I'm after at all:

Works for me. Optionally, you can just cut some of the hair/fur off of it, and use that to glue onto your bases instead, if you prefer. |
