Hey Scott I was trying to follow your paint guide for the 'eavy Metal series for my Dark Angels. But I have the old Space Marines (not Primaris). Is it just me, or is recess shading with black paint a bad idea to try with the older Space Marines? Seems the proportions are kinda off and its a lot harder to recess shade them, as opposed to the new Primaris Marines. I feel like ink would be a better call for them. Thanks!
@@xMorentz I got the idea to use a paint from an old GW book. Anything is possible if you have the ability to pull it off. That being said, mixing some black ink and black paint would probably be better for old marines and primaris alike.
Mate, your previous pronunciation of UHU-glue was spot on. It's a German company and the German language does not add that "y"-sound to the beginning of the "U" (Admittedly, I was kind of surprised that you pronounced it correctly in the other video). Fun fact, an Uhu is actually a kind of owl that lives all over Europe and Asia, including here in Germany. Also: Great base ideas!
I really love the idea of the tentacle coming through the base boards, this is perfect for a fantasy pirate theme or even a more sinister Cthulhu type setting. I'd be really interested to see how you would do a batch of bases, perhaps as many as a dozen, to stick to the theme but make them all unique. Another great video man.
cannot describe how much I love these videos, I started a 40k army thinking I wanted to play the game, but totally love hobbying waaayyyyyyy more than playing, don't get me wrong, love playing too, but making my models look dope is the best. These base videos are the shit. Thanks homie.
Dig the process especially the graveyard side note congrats on the sponsor really liked the way you included it. able to satisfy the sponsor need but not dump us out of the video entirely for the segment.
What is with all mayor mini painting channels uploading how to make bases in the same day? Do you have an agreement or what? hahahaha Love the bases though!
Don't worry too much about people complaining the project is not "too easy". One can never get better without trying things outside your comfort zone. Keep it up my man.
I didn't realise it was a German company, so shall have to decide how I pronounce it next time I need to say the word (I live in the UK). Though I'm wondering how 'sepia' is usually pronounced in the USA now - it's see-pee-a here.
I love that your uncle participated in this. I had a nice chuckle, thank you, Bob! Btw: The "Oohoo" pronounciation is the correct one. It's the German word for eagle owl and the company is German. And in Germany they even sometimes use an eagle owl as a mascot.
Great video, love the handy tips on using chipping and the grime, I have both but cant seem to get the chipping to work, your advice is handy now for my next go.
You don't need alot of terrain starting out. A couple of trees, a signpost, a couple of rocks, a doorway, and a couple of columns will get you through D&D.
This and your previous video on basing has inspired me to go beyond standard bases. My wife even wants to try some out. I'd like to see more, so I can learn more about materials and techniques!
You can rough up the balsa with a wire brush prior to hardening it with CA. I like that rock texture mold idea. And.... the outpost base is pretty cool. You always help me come up with ideas for bases, vignettes and dioramas. As always.... thanks for sharing your knowledge. 👍👍
For that roll board you got there, watch a few videos how to use a Cavarola 'yes that's a pasta board...' it might teaches you how to create a few weird pasta looking objects. might allows you to make cool shoulder pads or armor plate scales as an addition to rat tails and tentacles.
Quick tip for skulls on bases if you have streaking grime at your disposal... paint them bright white.. hit them with streaking grime, and then a dab on the highest point with a q-tip soaked in mineral spirits.. once its dry hit it with some seraphim sepia ( watered down if you dont want the skull to be too grimey ) .. and you'll have a super nice looking, dirty, scenery skull.
When doint bases I always find myself lacking not ideas, but instead the materials to accomplish them. Especially more complex bases need more and more additional stuff as I always go for a theme in bases and try to be elaborate about it. My struggle is focussed around finding the right supplies for the job and more often than not it discourages me, leaving my bases less interresting than they could be.
Love watching your videos, and say hi to Uncle Bob! Thanks for the tips, so much effort to go to for that dirt on the first base but it came out great so can't complain
My favorite part was the idea of combining the Dimensional Magic with Plaguebearer Flesh to create rain puddles. That was genius to me and I used it on my Harlequin bases. Have you tested how well that combination works compared to Nurgle's Rot? I wonder if they'd be interchangeable or if each has their use.
So easy. Just need 20 or so ingredients, including some products that are specially sent from manufacturers and the dexterity of a watchmaker. Simples.
UHU makes a few types of glue, I really like the version you used. I wanted to get that effect, but was going to try hot glue, this looks so much easier!

@@Miniac Thanks dude, appreciate the quick reply.
Hey Scott. Love these vids. Any chance of a detailed series on the types of texture mediums and where to use them?
Shoutout to the Uncle Bob Club.
Only reason i upvoted

I paint all my bases fluorescent pink. My models too. Also my hands.
I read this in bubblebath's voice from spongebob
do you eat flourescent paint? i do tastes like butterscotch
Not pink enough. Is your entire body fluorescent pink? And your clothing? And your eyesight?
Gotta love our hobby, not many other places you say “I’m fresh out of gravestones”
I do but i bury dead ppl for a living so ya ...
Gravestone store manager
@@eugenestoner8405 As long as their dead. Live one's wriggle too much, hey!
Funeral home, stone carver, engraver, serial killer, etc
Today I told my mother I was freebasing after gathering free basing mats. Good times.

@@robrobusa pronounces uhu wrong NEIN NEIN NEIN
Great to have Uncle Bob as guest spot - made me laugh 😆. As always, a great vid with ideas I can use right away. Thank you 🙏🏻
Sorry for you loss Scott, R.I.P. Uncle Bob

Another great video man.
definitely gonna try it for the Malifaux Nightmare pirate crew.

That's it. He made it. Skillshare sponsored his video....Well done Scott. Well done.
for icicles, you can just makes streaks of hot glue and cut them up.
You've given me quite a bit of inspiration for other basing ideas
I love the outro, I swear it gives me motivation.
Finally another base video
At this point in my life i'd say "knowing when to pull on the rod, and when not to" is my primary marketable skill.
Kudos to your uncle Bob for playing along!
that first base is how I paint my minis!
What is with all mayor mini painting channels uploading how to make bases in the same day? Do you have an agreement or what? hahahaha Love the bases though!
I really love the beats
Don't worry too much about people complaining the project is not "too easy". One can never get better without trying things outside your comfort zone. Keep it up my man.
All these bases make me want to find some zombie pirates to paint
Love these, strait forward and easy to follow. Looks like I’ll be working on bases all week 👍🏽
Considering UHU is a german brand, you pronounced it right last time! Although you guys might call it you-hoo in the US...
can't please 'em all
I said "you-hoo" all my life, but you are quite right. After checking the proper pronunciation is "ooo-hoo" !
I didn't realise it was a German company, so shall have to decide how I pronounce it next time I need to say the word (I live in the UK). Though I'm wondering how 'sepia' is usually pronounced in the USA now - it's see-pee-a here.
Please make more of these these are my favourite videos you make
I love that your uncle participated in this. I had a nice chuckle, thank you, Bob!

I made gravestones out of popsicle sticks. Love these bases dude. Thanks for the tips.

The Bob's your uncle gag killed me!!🤘
Dude, I love this. Bases are super fun.
Awesome video!! I loved your last basing video and was so pumped to see another one. Lots of inspiration here for my new 40k army!
I see you like corridor, good choice
This and your previous video on basing has inspired me to go beyond standard bases. My wife even wants to try some out. I'd like to see more, so I can learn more about materials and techniques!
Keep the base videos comin
"Paint that base rim black, OR SO HELP ME GOD!"
Love the Corridor shirt!
You can rough up the balsa with a wire brush prior to hardening it with CA.
I like that rock texture mold idea. And.... the outpost base is pretty cool.
You always help me come up with ideas for bases, vignettes and dioramas. As always.... thanks for sharing your knowledge. 👍👍
Bob seems like a cool uncle. well played Scott, well played.
Haha Bobs your uncle. Legitness that's just comical
that outro still gives me chills love it !
Magnificent video as usual Scott! Thankyou, I look forward to listening to you guys talk on the new podcast 👍
more of these please!
Love these base’s
Great video, Uncle Bob was by far the best part though
The last one is epic I will definitely be having a crack at that. I love basing so much fun.
Looks awesome.
That last base gave me some great ideas. Thanks for the video!

Love your channel dude!
This dude is incredible
Whoah! Bob!
I can’t stress enough how great your impression of your viewers is hahaha Another great video Scott!
For a moment there I thought that you would be growing mold in that rock
Woohoo! Bases again! I love basing :)
All your base are belong to scott
Your paint scheme and final job is amazing. Wish I had your skills man.
Thanks for the great video! Great source of inspiration.
2:41 Pretzel Quest... Guess Everyone Has Their Things.
love this !
These are so cool!
Have you tried using Coffee filters to remove excess paint? they soak well and dont leave the fibres as easily :)
Breakfast in England with the Miniac. Great Ideas and we luv you BoB !!
slick bases !

Love watching your videos, and say hi to Uncle Bob! Thanks for the tips, so much effort to go to for that dirt on the first base but it came out great so can't complain
No one:
Me: Bases for the base god
That can't be a warhammer reference! 😂
@@joshuasimpson6374 no, it's a music reference. You ever heard of music? Pretty obscure tbh
Based

One thing with the blood isle is i would make the skull face the bank with a hand to give the impression that it was tring to escape
Thanks for all the awesome content you create Scott, really inspiring me to be better!
Its cool your uncle stopped by to help you out.
I love that channel
Very cool, very cool.
Great video, the Gomer Pyle voice always cracks me up!
I would like to see more from Uncle Bob, please. He is very cool.
Nice to meet you uncle Bob!
I LOVE these basing videos. Please keep making these, maybe some for more advanced hobbiests
tecchnically for the blood isles one u could use some texture paint
Great vid.. thanks for the ideas
This why i like Kings of War. You can really go to town with the multi base.
You should do more basing videos in the future this was awesome.
Do these look easy? No
Are they inspiring? Yes!
I really enjoyed this video, showing lots of creativity! The rock mold is genius! Problem: here in Central Florida, there are no rocks!
Fabuloso!
this one was super helpful. thank you!
really cool man
I love Bob tbh
Oh yeah. Onto the base kick.
The True unsung hero here is uncle bob!
Can you provide more details on how you make your dirt please?
Do a part 2.
Let's see some forest bases
Watch my other basing video!
Great video! It's encouraging me to get do more elaborate basing. Any chance you could do a video on some good 'starter basing supplies' ?
I love your videos man, I would love to hear your take on kitbashing in 40K.
So easy. Just need 20 or so ingredients, including some products that are specially sent from manufacturers and the dexterity of a watchmaker. Simples.
Rip Bob :(
You should paint the tesseract vault I bet you could make that model shine
My name is scott also lol
Four easy bases:
Me looking at some of my bases that is still covered in white primer: soon.
Being an electrician I have access to a lot of materials for cool bases. My only problem is my lack of imagination in coming up with ideas.
UHU makes a few types of glue, I really like the version you used. I wanted to get that effect, but was going to try hot glue, this looks so much easier!
Love Em! Great ideas.
