I've always done a similar process, but never thought to apply the varnish BEFORE the pigments to help them stick. You never stop learning in this hobby.
Your channel is exploding and we all know why. Top quality tips with a very professional yet friendly presentation. If you decide to start a Patreon, I'll be the first to support you.
Best of luck Emil!
totally agree!
Aaw, Joan & floarian❤️❤️❤️
Great looking base, can't wait to try it
OMG!!!! your seed pod idea is da BOMB. Well done!! can't wait to add it to my Sylvaneth bases. THANK YOU
Epic mate! Glad I could help 😊
Great technique. Great channel. Thanks for sharing.
Hey thank you Squidmar :) exactly what I was searching for this morning ! Perfect timing ahah !
Nice vid one more time !
Cheers mate ❤️
Great tips! Lovely Base ♥️
Awesome! Great job.
Looks great!
Love that your channel is blowing up. Your videos are great, man!
Aaw, thanks Brad, appreciate it!
Hi! Thank you for your tutorial, I love it! I will use it for my tomb kings 😊
Great result. As for future ideas, jungle bases and or marshland bases woukd be cool to do.
Jungle would be fun 😊
Another thing to try, thanks for the Inspiration!
Cheers Jesse 😍
Another great vid, keep them coming mr squidmar!
Oh I will ❤️
Yeeeeeees, another basing vid!
Wop wop 😊
I love your vids!!!!!
If you are using pigments, you could just as well dab some on the lower part of the miniatures. It will feel more natural. But be careful, less is more...
Cool piece of art
Cheers bro
Excellent
Cheers! ❤️
Will you do a snow / iceland base tutorial? Looking forward to it ;)
I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!
Thx for the love bud 😍
Great tutorial as always. One question for attaching the model to the base. Did you pin the model to the base, or do you just use a bunch of superglue?
Sjukt att du tog upp björkfrön! tänkte precis på det till ett diorama innan jag tittade på videon.
Love your content, wondering if you have any suggestions for a home-made pummace compound/alternative? Thanks :)
Tea from a tea bag works well for leaves
The name of the tree is "Betula Alba"
How well do miniatures stick to these types of bases over a long period of time? I’m just barely getting into miniature painting and want to do this but am worried about them not sticking well especially with ones that are grainy.
I never tried to seal dry pigments with glue, in your experiments does it maintain the "dust" aspect after dry?
Squidmar-Sensei, I tried doing the skin highlights from the previous warcry video, but my highlights seem to look kind of splotchy. Do you have any advice?
What’s the name of the music? I love it!
Any other bases you want to see me cover? 🎸
Snow! There's actually a lot of different ways to make a snow covered base, and I'm curious as to how you'd tackle it.
one with tiles! ancient ruined temple themed
You done snow yet?
Have you done any lava bases?
Desert Oasis base! Mixing tropical greenery with the dryness of the desert sand and hopefully some water as well would be amazing!
Could I substitute the matt varnish with pva glue or will that get too messy?
I wanted to ask, do I reapply varnish to the base to seal the pigments in or does that ruin the look?
Just to be clear it is not the actual seeds that are leaf shaped ;)
Could we also find use of the white aspen seeds that were everywhere this summer? :)
Great video as always!
It's been several days that I was looking for a way to make sand desert bases, and yesterday I found those micro-leaves you're talking about for my Sylvaneth bases ^^ Must be karma!
By the way, wouldn't it be easier to apply the tufts after the pigment steps than before? Like this you wouldn't have to take care about not putting varnish on them, and you would have a more finished global view on your base to place your tufts even better? My 2 cents :) Thanks again for your videos, very inspiring! Keep on the good work!
Yeah man, that works just as fine 😁 you need a bit more glue too make it stick properly but honestly, it's such s small thing. Both ways are equally good
So would this not be good for minis you would use to play with? Would the pigment always rub off onto your fingers?
Hi, I have 1 question - are You using for that base any varnish?
How do you put the miniature on? Or do you do the base with it already glued on?
Great video as always!!
I do bothe. Just use super glue 😊
I tried to use super glue to attach the miniature but it wouldnt adhere to the Pigment. Do you use something else on top to seal the pigment or just the matte varnish on the bottom ?
So there is no need to put like a spray glue or any kind of finish on top of the sand?
Very nice! :D Does the pigments actually stay on the base though? :)
I don't okay very violently and don't store in foam bags so it's fine fine :)
Would you recommend sealing the pigments on with scenic glue? or would that just bork the look of the base?
Haven't tried it! :) please do and let me know how it looks!
Can you use weathering powder instead of pigment to do this?
Did that artist do your logo? Style looks similar (and cool).
You've got a keen eye! Yeah it's the same guy. He's been really helpful and excited about the channel from day 1 :)
This looks great! Quick question, if I was to use lahmian medium instead of matt varnish would I do it in the same way as you did with the varnish?
Yeah :)
@@SquidmarMiniatures Awesome, cheers dude!
Kan basen torka under en lampa efter att du satt på white pumice?
I followed your tips and for the most part it worked out great, having a bit of an issue that pigment always seem to stain my box or the model while transporting it. Should I use something to seal it from the top as well? First time using pigments.
Secret Weapon sells a pigment fixative. There are probably other substances that would work too.
@@JorenMathews didnt know about pigment fixer, will see if my LGS has some in stock. Thanks for the tip
New to this what size base are you using?
Since I am also in Sweden I am hoping you can reply with where we can get the white plumice or similar? I am thinking some kind of mortel should work as well (and be cheaper) but there is so much different mortel to get I am lost as to which would be good for minis and not only construction work. :)
Fantasia north :)
Turmeric (dried spice powder) would probably work just as well as the dry pigment, and be *way* cheaper.
I have a request. How would you paint armor that looks black yet still metal? Without ofc the obvious apply 3 washes of nuln oil over your metal..
i like the cowboy music
So i guess you should prime the base and miniature separately?
I love how your desert base looks and I can reproduce it on my own minis. However, I intend to use them for gaming, so I need to protect the pigments using a matte varnish rattle can spray. For some reason, I just cannot get it right. Either I spray it too light and the pigments still comes off when you touch it, or I spray it on to thick (I guess) and the pigments turn white. The rest of the mini does NOT turn white with the same amount of spray on it. Do you have any idea what I could be doing wrong and how to prevent it? Thank you!
I am facing the same issue. Comes out great but its not a very good way to get sand texture if you want to use them for play.
Men alltså... björfrötipset! Jag gick från å hata de där små fröna som skräpar överallt till att fundera på var jag har närmsta Björk 🤣 tack!
Haha fy fan för björkfrön 😂
Do you always do the bases first and glue the minis afterwards? I tried it this way but the models often times look like they stay on top of the environment and not really in it. But on the other hand the basing process is so much easier when there is no mini on the base. :D
And I forgot, awesome video as always.
Hi mate :) I do both, depending on the model. For the sake of showing how I made the base in this video I did it separate from model.
@@SquidmarMiniatures Makes sense, thank you! 🙏
Damn, I am allergic to birch. Hope I won't be playing against a Sylvaneth player with all his models covered in birch :D
Sorry this question is of topic but I have a doubt. I'm going to paint the Tzolk'in wheels and I like to make them look like stone. If I prime it gray can I just put a wash of black with out a base coat or should I do a base coat of the same gray?
Hey mate, there are no rights or wrongs when it comes to painting. Try it, might look great :)
@@SquidmarMiniatures thank you very much!
So you don't seal the pigments afterward? You don't lose too much over time?
Hey, I don't use foam bags and don't play violently. It's fine for me :)
I worry about excess pigments rubbing off and coloring other stuff. Can you seal it with varnish or the like? Or will it defeat the point of using pigments? Was wondering about this in your other videoes as well.
Yeah you can def spray some varnish on top of it if you like! :)
@@SquidmarMiniatures Thank you for answering! :D Love your videoes.
Short question:
Can i use armagedon dunes from citadel too instead of the white combound?
And make then the same steps like you did in the video?
Thanks for an answer and greetings from austria :)
Probably the same thing with different colors :D try!
Thanks
Fan, jag missade guldperioden för att hitta de små irritationerna. Får väl vänta tills det faller fler från träden.
I am the 1000 view💫💫💫😲
Wopwopwop 😍
What the heck, I paid MONEY for a whole pot of those seeds!!!
Haha yeah, I did i too when it was mid December and I needed leafs. But you can always grab some extra 😊
Sometimes its winter, sometimes you just want a bunch of same sized leaves. So you pay for a time spent by someone else + packaging
