Miniature Basing Materials – Complete Your Models from the Ground Up
Basing is one of the most impactful parts of the miniature painting process — a well-executed base grounds a model in its world, tells a story, and can transform a good paint job into something truly impressive. From simple sand and gravel to elaborate terrain features, lava effects, snow, and tufts, the right basing materials make an enormous difference to the finished appearance of any miniature.
Loaded Dice stocks a comprehensive range of basing materials in our Barry, South Wales shop and online at loadeddice.uk, including Warhammer Colour Technical texture paints, AK Interactive terrain products, static grass and tufts from Gamers Grass, basing kits, flock, gravel, sand, and all the scenic materials needed to base any army in any environment.
Frequently Asked Question
The essentials are a texture paint or sand for the ground surface, a wash to shade it, a drybrush highlight colour, and optionally tufts or static grass for a finished look. Warhammer Colour texture paints like Astrogranite or Armageddon Dust make basing very quick and easy.
The quickest method is to apply a Warhammer Colour Technical texture paint to the base, let it dry, drybrush with a light colour, add a tuft of static grass, and seal with matt varnish. This takes around 10 minutes per base and looks excellent.
Gamers Grass tufts are among the most popular in the hobby, available in a huge range of colours, heights, and styles. They are self-adhesive and add instant realism to any base.
Yes — many players choose a consistent basing style across all their armies for a uniform look on the tabletop. Alternatively, matching bases to each faction's environment adds thematic depth.
PVA glue is the standard choice for attaching sand, gravel, and flock. Superglue is better for larger scenic pieces, rocks, and resin elements. Allow PVA to dry thoroughly before adding subsequent layers.
