How does the clear base work on the table? Does it show up with sort of a shine like in the pictures or does it really look clear and you just see the figure?
It works in a very good way. You see the model and also a shiny edge of base. Bases remain transparent, but terrain under them are enlarged a bit (because bases are like lenses). Most of the time its just like on these photos: http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-lDuthXnzNk8/Uei3tewAY9I/AAAAAAAABw8/N1Rm7iIfnAg/s1600/Guard.jpg http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-T9jSsSEb8JY/Uei3DT5-0zI/AAAAAAAABw0/0d9F9YunvHI/s1600/Cuirassier.jpg
Very nice work. Interesting that you're using clear bases. I'm doing four figures on clear hex bases and am hoping they turn out well.

Like them a lot!
Nice job on the Peter Pig figures. I'm a modeler-gamer hermit, and this is the first time I've seen clear plastic used as a base.
ReplyDeleteActually I think these are first 15mm figures on clear bases :)
