Upgrading My Basing – 15mm Ancients
Bases to match my Roman campaigns in dark barbaric northern lands.
I wasnt too happy about my overly green fields on both the terrain and minis of the previous post.
So I upgraded them and am satisfied with the results.
They better represent the dark and grim woods of the barbarian lands.
Basically, for the minis, I darkened the bases to a deep brown, then drybrushed it with a tan earth, and then topped it with static grass.
The ruins bases were left brown with no static grass as a reminder that these structures were razed to the ground some time ago.
For the forests, I added bark scrap bits on the darkened terrain base.
Since the trees are just added on top, the terrain bases double as forest bases (with trees) or rough terrain (without trees).
