Not sure when Scott go around to releasing these, but I'm rather taken with them. Actually, I was talking to him earlier today about 'why doesn't he do display rounds?' and I got one of those replies that you know the other individual is holding back from calling you a daft bugger.

:D

Anyhow, scenic display rounds, and as I understand it, more in the works. Under the section called Dark-War. Looks good.

These are very nice! Is there a place in America that sells these?

FF, you look like you are going to have a shop if the button up top is an indicator. Will you be selling these?

I like the Decking ones. The slates aren't bad either, but I wouldn't buy them, since I can make something like that myself with just some cork.

I have always liked Scotts bases, and intend to make a big order one day when I get around to it...I'm slow sometimes however :(

Are you going to have these in your shop whne you finally open it, FF? I like the wooden floor ones, the rock and grass one I could do myself though.

And more importantly, will you be accepting Paypal? I think I'll be needing to go sell off my kidneys now so I can afford all the stuff I'd like to buy.

Believe me you can't make slate bases like that with cork.
The nearest I have got is with milliput sheets.
I have used the old style bases from Scott and they are great. These display ones look even better.
Problem with me is I like making my own or I would buy loads. If I had an army or squad to do then I would get some.

Hrmmm, point the Spacemunkie this direction and we'll see what he says'. :D Got a few things in the going right now but I'll drop Mr. Munkie a line and see what he has to say.

As for the bases - got a ton of them myself. Love them, and Klute is absolutely correct about not being able to make cork look like this. I tried for a few hours one night ..

Oh, and Klute, you should have some in hand by now! I know you were one of the winners of your category (I best be remembering correctly). You got a gift certificate. Telling me you didn't get yours (e-mail - know you didn't get the box yet).

AND, the best thing about limestone/slate, is that it really does look drybrushed in real life!! so drybrushing is probably the correct technique for painting it! :D

I've got some industrial ones made up too. Just been too busy/lazy to mould 'em.

Lots of split levels, water and rivets...

You cast some of those and I think it may just push me over the edge to make that big 'ol base order I'm planning :puppy:

Very nice stuff and I can highly recommend them. In fact he made me up some rather nice cavalry bases for my Ogre Rhinox riders which I must get on with.
