Let's Rock and Roll !!!

Hello all,

As you can see I have been sharing my Warhammer 40K: Grey Knights army at my blog. Some of my friends asked me how I did their bases. Let's move step by step;

- Buy cork plates (I bought from our local Bauhaus shop, you can find some from similar shops. There are several types, try to buy as much as thicker one.)

- Split one of plates to pieces. Continue this part till you get what you want, don't worry for wasting pieces, you can still use them. During this process stage you can use your bare hands.

- When you think you have enough pieces, you can start designing your base, at this stage don't use any glue, you will want to set another visage (put your model on your base and look for a while every time of new set of visage, spending time is better than being sorry). When you are sure about visage, use your glue (I am using Pattex for both my models and bases), it will take some time untill it get dry.

- Last part is priming, I prime in standart way, first applying black coat then a bit white spray for shading.

- Painting part is quite simple, I use Games Workshop paints for my models and bases, first I apply "Codex Grey" to whole area, after this stage, I use drybrush technique to especially to edges and flat areas with "Fortress Grey". Next step is using "Devlan Mud" wash to whole area (I prefer to apply wash as much as possible, yes that cause you to wait more for drying but result will satisfy you). Last step for painting is again drybrushing however this time I use "Skull White" and this time I use on lesser than first drybrushing area (almost only edges).


Hope this simple guide will help you...
