I've started a re-basing project over the half term holidays for my WW2 French fleet, going from 30mm wide to 20mm wide bases. Before
After
I'll be doing a 'how to' on the blog later this week, once I've tackled the cruisers. link |

Looks like a lot of work, but I like the change.  |

I've got a bit of a conveyor belt going, so it doesn't take too long. It helps that I only lightly glued them down to the old bases! |

The new bases look nice, and blend into the sea surface very nicely. How did you do the texturing? - Ix |

It's artists acrylic paste..useful stuff! |

I've got a bunch of those. Which one did you use? Also, what provides the gloss? - Ix |

I got mine cheap in a French supermarket. The gloss is artists gloss acrylic varnish from the same place. |
