Having painted the Wolf Riders, reader Igwarg must now provide the figures with permanent bases:


I decided to base my figures a more conventional way (rather than using the Demonworld hexagonal plastic bases), so I can play other game systems. I can use my Demonworld bases as moving trays.

Therefore, I cut some vinyl floor tiles to my desired size and glued down my Wolf Riders.

The Riders are glued to pieces of vinyl tile

Next, I painted my bases brown. In case I'll miss a spot while flocking, or if the flock will ever flake off - this way the white color of the tile will not be visible.

The bases are painted brown - just in case...

Then I spread some white glue around the bases and dipped the figures into my sand box. Ihe "sand box" contains real dirt, as well as some railroad ballast I bought from the hobby store.

Into the sand box...

After that was dry, I applied some white glue on top of that, and dipped my bases in my "grass box." This box contains a mix of about 5 different types of grass. Then I highlighted the "grass" with some yellow, and painted the base sides medium brown to look like wood.
