#Icy bases?

I don't know if this is realistic enough for what you plan, but what I did was:

  • Paint the base in a light blue
  • Glue on some decorative clear crystal thingies (they sell those where people also buy decorative candles and stuff)
  • Glue on the mini
  • Use AK snow sprinkles (acrylic Diorama)
  • Let it dry a day and repeat snow sprinkles as necessary

I put it on with a toothpic and all the bases have I believe two layers

My old wip tests for icey basing using Agrellan Earth to create cracked ice, spraying it white, and washing it with Frostheart, a little bit of white and blue white drybrushing, and gloss varnish on top with snow edging it out

#

You can also remove the ground and just keep it the bare base and paint on top of that, my buddy has done that when we did ice basing together, I'll see if I can't grab a pic from them

#

This is his, he did a very small amount of texture beneath but the way he did the scratches were to take Citadel's texture tool and white paint+snow and literally scrape and scratch it across the base

Very cool! (Pun not intended)

Rock Candy Crackle Paint is transparent crackle paint and makes great clear ice

Thoughts on using glass chunks for ice sheets?

#

Found these on site at work, thought that might make a decent ice look. Not sure if it'll stick onto a base and if a mini will stick to the glass either

doesn't superglue stick to everything? I haven't tried real glass though. I would be cautious if the edges are sharp

#

it does look nice, though

Be careful the layers don't get too thick, the thin plastic stacks nicely

I've done my first base!

Used uv resin
