Hello im pretty new to the basing scene and i have a specific Idea what i want kind of terrain/Base i wanna do.

I Really wanna do a Ruin/rocky/snowy Tundra base for my miniature Bases, and i was wishing for feedback and help in what materials i should get.

The idea is a winter/snowy, Tundra and Rocky/slate landscape with stone or other ruins. Im planning on getting Vallejo Dark earth ground texture. pepecheer PeepoLove

The specific ground texture doesnt matter a whole bunch since you can paint over it, just FYI. As for the rest, I would cruise around etsy and see what bits are out there that fit your idea.

Cork sheets are really good for making elevations, tufts for the grass...etc etc

Thank you! I have some cork sheets at Home and was planning to look at bark to get that slate rock feel, i also looked at some vids on snow and most people suggest Ak Snow.

The snow is nice and it's a finer texture

So my plan is to get

  • Cork Bark

  • pine bark

  • maybe Slate

  • some kind of ground Texture

  • also some kind snow Texture

  • some yellowish, redish Tuff

Is their something more you guys recomend i get for ex. Pigment powder or something else?

Yeah I was thinking on getting pine bark to simulate the slate look

#

if it is gonna be a miniature for purely looks like not a gaming one pine bark is the way do to the weight if it is purely for standing on the cabinet slate chipings are the way

#

ofc paint the slate to look more like it fits in ur miniature
