Army Painter Basing & Terrain

One of the things that is key to creating the most realistic and convincing mini is the miniature’s base! And if you truly want to take it to the next level, basing materials are must-haves. By using basing materials, you not only complete the look, but also add details and elevate the theme of the miniature.

Our Battlefields range offers you a vast selection of basing materials, including an extensive selection of textures and materials. From rocky terrain to lust, grassy fields, you have almost unlimited options to make your pieces stand out.

Your miniature’s base plays an important role in the overall presentation of your army and so, the choices you make about basing materials for miniatures not only impact the individual miniature but also the entire army. The base is as crucial to your miniature army as the figures themselves, especially when displayed on the tabletop, where the bases are among the first details noticed by your opponent

One way to tie your army together, make it look coherent, and tell a thematic story is by using consistent basing materials across the army. Use battlefield basing and terrain basing to highlight details and further underline the theme the miniature is set in. This really elevates the experience and makes your painting job pop even more.

Our miniature basing materials come in two forms: basing and tufts. These two types greatly complement each other. Both Basing and Tufts are very versatile in their look, depending on how you use them. When you combine different tufts and basing, you can create anything and everything from a simple wasteland to a complicated forest scenery.
