I have decided to join the Monty's challenge for his 100k visits. It's tough, as I have been avoiding basing for a long time.
Jean-Jacques, Cedric a encore rejoins un truc sur Internet. |
Le challenge: Faire 5 bases. Make 5 bases.
Thème: hivernal, désertique, végétal, démoniaque, futuriste
Theme: Winter, Desert, woody-jungly, hellish, futuristic
Maintenant va falloir que j'apprenne à faire et vite.
Now, I need to learn how to do stuff... quickly.
Well, I think the first thing to do is decide how much of each of these elements goes into a base:
ReplyDelete* Colour. Winter, desert and hellish bases could just be white, tan and red without much other difference between them.
* Structure. The shape of the underlying ground or man-made building/sidewalk.
* Scatter. Anything that is not part of the structure, such as vegetation, discarded equipment, small animals...
Once you've decided on the balance between these 3 aspects, creating a base is just the same as any other model-making task :-) .
that's a good point and a good start. I have started drawing what I am trying to do, then I will start to work on the base.
DeleteThe structure and scatter are 2 good steps I didn't fully include into the thinking process.
Good luck. Colgar6's is good advice!
ReplyDeleteyes. Good to read some help :)
