Bring your miniatures to life with our collection of Basing Materials, perfect for adding depth, texture, and realism to any model or terrain piece. Whether you're creating muddy battlefields, sunbaked deserts, forest floors, or urban ruins, these materials help set the scene. From static grass and tufts to sand, cork, and snow effects, basing materials give your miniatures the perfect finishing touch.
Basing materials are used to decorate the bases of miniatures, dioramas, and terrain pieces. They simulate natural environments like grass, dirt, rocks, or snow, helping to ground your models in a believable setting and enhance overall visual storytelling.
Popular basing materials include static grass, grass tufts, hobby sand, gravel, bark, cork, snow paste, mud effects, pigment powders, and resin base toppers. Many of these can be combined to create layered and dynamic bases for various environments.
Yes. Most basing products are beginner-friendly and can be applied using white glue, super glue, or texture pastes. Simply apply adhesive to the base and sprinkle or press the material in place. Drying time is minimal, and results are immediate and visually striking.
Absolutely. Many hobbyists prime and paint over basing materials to add shading, highlights, or color blending. Sand, cork, and rocks take paint well, and pigments can be applied to enrich the finish. Just be sure to seal the final result with a matte varnish for durability.
Basic tools include white glue, tweezers, a hobby knife, texture spreaders, and a brush for drybrushing or sealing. A basing kit or tray helps organize materials, while pigment fixers and varnishes ensure long-lasting results. For advanced effects, texture pastes and resin toppers can enhance realism.
Yes. Many brands offer themed basing sets for specific environments like tundra, desert, forest, or ruins. These kits typically include a mix of materials—tufts, gravel, sand, and pigments—designed to work together to achieve a cohesive look for your models or armies.
Basing materials add realism, context, and visual interest to your miniatures. A well-based model not only looks more complete but also helps tie your army or diorama into its theme. It’s a quick and satisfying way to elevate your painting and showcase your creativity.
