[@matthewboles6721]

I love these basing videos. Please keep them coming.

[@metajock]

Nice. Not a color I would have normally done. Thanks!

[@nikot.9920]

Lovely concept! I'm definitely trying this at some point down the line.

[@1701Starfish]

Amazing!!! I can't wait to try these products.

[@Valkyrie_3d]

Amazing. I feel like i need to make a new army so i can do this 😅

[@Scribbinge]

Very cool. I had no idea you guys made videos but this is awesome and I want more! :D

[@reluxor]

Great. Can't wait to put my exodites on these

[@davidaugustine399]

Hello. Can you do a tutorial of a black and green alien color scheme? Thank you

[@GamersGrass]

Hello! Thanks for reaching out!
You could mix some "Alien Void" Tufts with the "Alien Toxic" tufts, for a black and green feel, for example creating the same ground painting steps as this basing guide, but with a green color.
You can also check our "Necro-Dust Debris" Basing guide for some ideas, since it's a dark green sci-fi theme.
We hope this helps :)

I love these basing videos they're amazing! I was wondering if you were thinking about adding cherry blossom style plants to the shop?

[@GamersGrass]

Hello! Thanks for reaching out!
We don't have that planned, but it would be amazing! We will make sure to add that to our ideas list!
Thanks for your suggestion!

[@dannielsen348]

To me, it is reminiscent of a nightgaunt.

[@Kelann08]

I love these basing videos. One suggestion: don't do a black border. :D Instead, choose a complimentary color to the base itself. Maybe the midtone from the ground colors. It helps to tie the whole base together rather than creating an arbitrary border between the base and table. I do this with all my minis and I think it looks so much better. Sort of like picking a frame that compliments a painting.

[@GamersGrass]

Hello! Thank you for reaching out!
Curiously we did comment the other day about the idea of painting the border in more colors, for example white. We ended up painting the border black nonetheless, but it's an interesting idea to try out, thanks for your feedback :)

[@JohnFCKnDOE]

Beautiful work. What was the blue wash you used?

[@GamersGrass]

Hi! Thank you for commenting :)
The wash we used is similar to Drakenhof Blue shade from citadel.
We hope this helps.
