Base fellows
The Napoleonic Portable Wargame bases arrived from Warbases this morning. I went for 3mm thickness and rounded corners. Here they are with the glue waiting to be dry before I can paint the bases and varnish them finally-
Alan, I too have gone with the 3mm thickness and rounded corners for my War of 1812 collection, which, magically, can also be used for The Portable Napoleonic Wargame rules... Great minds thinking alike, I see.
Tradgardmastare,
ReplyDeleteHaving seen the curved corners on your bases, I wish that I’d opted for them as well.
All the best,
Bob
You can with the next batch Bob.
DeleteI use curved corners for individuals and pointed for figures representing multiples.
ReplyDeleteDon't you just love the smell of the bases though!!!!?

Interesting convention. I love the smell of Mdf bases in the morning!!!!!
DeleteThey look good. I like the rounded corners for bases as they reduce accidental damage done and taken from handling or storage.
ReplyDeleteThanks. Interesting practical point which I had never thought of.

Excellent choice on base and rules fronts!
DeleteThe rounded off corners are an attractive option.
ReplyDeleteI agree, I am surprised to what an extent that proves to be true.
